Gday ppl!
Im thinkn about bringing over a V35 350GT coupe from japan, coz the sticker prices on these cars I see here in adelaide are quite frankly staggering ($40K plus) and Im suprised people are paying this when turbo, manual 34's are only around the $24K mark... $17-$20K privately... Obviously I like the V35 coupe, but at that price, give me a R34 any day!! Hell I could get an R32 GTR in show condish!
Anyway, back on topic... I'm just wondering how people here go about aranging finance for a car that is not even here in the country? I mean, I can afford a $30,000 car, but I dont have $30,000 if you get my drift! Anyone here got a favourite bank etc that they have success with in the past? Is there such a thing as a car loan for these types of vehicles or are people forced to pay the higher interest rate of a personal loan? I've known people 1st hand who have gone for local vehicles such as fords and holdens (new) believing they could not arrange finance for a car that was still in japan.... so sad...
Any advice or past experiences would be greatly appreciated.
