Is This R32 Gtr At The Right Price?

[djrice]

Hi guys was looking at this car

CLick Here

what are some things too look out for when checking it out, and whats the right price to haggle down too

thanks

[boj01]

Its up to personal preference, but for that kind of money you can get a tidy R33 GTR.

[Marlin]

It would need to be an exceptional car, no accident history etc of coarse!

I reckon a great 32 is still worth that, as I got that for mine and reckon I shoulda got more, as I had the sh*t5 at the time and sold it to the first guy that made an offer.

But there is just so many out there now, we picked up a REALLY nice one for a mate yesterday for 19G, no accidents, (perfect sills and everything) with a bit of gear (cooler/inject/N1's etc) just a little clear coming off on the rear spoiler. So, it would have to be a really good car to command that price.

dont be fooled by thinking a modded car is running at its best. do you know if the engine has had a rebuild? gearbox? how many kms it has done with that power?

Well this model is a 93 model, mayb its the end of year one just b4 94.

When going to look at the car who should i get in contact with to get a pro's scan over of the car. Just in case i aint getting a Lemon

SO it worth the extra few $$$ to get the V-spec II, what are the advantages does it have over a regular GTR or v-spec I

[silver gts-t]

a vspec II aint worth an extra 10k if your planning on modding it..

[IOWNU]

Way too expensive.

GTRs hold their value, but not THAT well.

I'm pretty sure you could find an immaculate R32 GTR in the high 20s.

[Midnight Racer]

for the v-spce II is only a little different for normal gtr. different is brembo brake system, 17 inch bbs wheels, r33 asstesa system and boot have more a little wing. that all. 94 normal and v-spce II have same engine system, but i u get N1, that more different....

[kralster]

well he's selling this R33 GTR Vspec for 35,000 and it's got low km

so yeah up to you i guess, but personally for a really good mint 32 GTR i wouldn't pay much more than 25,000.

[hanyou]

fuji motorsport is a good dealer. my mate purchased his 180 thru them, the guy there is a top bloke talk to lok i think his name is.. but yeah with that price deff haggle that price down hard!

Should i just go into autostyle and tell them to find me one with all the goodies?

From the owner of a V Spec R32.....

The R32 V Spec II was not released until Feb 1994 so something is suss there. Be aware it is common to practice find false claims on V Specs.

Even if it was a 'V Spec' I wouldn't bother with one unless it retained the original BBS rims, as this is one of the few 'trademark external features'

I beg to differ with the above advice...a comparable condition V Spec IS worth $10k more than a non-V Spec in the R32 series. However if your main purpose is power via major modifications then save the outlay expense and go the non V Spec option.

I believe a rare R32 V Spec or VSpec II will hold value propably better than any other GT-R.

yea true did the v-specs come withe brembo's?

yea i was thinking that as you see the price differences on v-spec compared to non on the r34 gtrs

[Rob_32_VSPEC]

V-Spec Factory Features over a standard GT-R

•17 inch Aluminium BBS mesh rims with 225/50 tyres

•Brembo brakes (four-piston) with ventilated 324mm discs up front and two-piston 300mm discs in the rear

•Firmer suspension setup (bilsten shocks)

•Electronically revised all-wheel-drive system (ATTESSA-PRO)

The ONLY difference between the V Spec and the V Spec II in a R32 is that;.

* V-spec II actually had slightly wider tyres at 245/45

* The V-spec II had a boot decal

Other stuff?

* Boot lip (under the wing) often seen in pictures,... yet mine dosn't appear to ever had one

* Also mine has no rear window wiper

Maybe optional from factory?

a NICE r32gtr can ask for high 30's-low 40's at JAPAN

i am taking about those which done under 10000km from new

[r32line]

Hey,

Nobody seems to have mentioned that there were only ever 400 r32 gtr v-spec II's built. When you consider how many of them are probably scrapped or crashed, a genuine vspec II in good condition is quite a rare vehicle. A friend in japan saw one at a dealership recently with 18,000kms and even in japan it was selling for close to $40,000 AUS before onroad costs etc. Also as far as i know vspec II's were only built in 1994 as mentioned above.

I like the fact you only want to buy an r32 shape, the original godzilla is my favourite by far!

[Marlin]

I still don't think a v-spec or v-spec II is worth more than 10% more than a standard GTR, there's just not enough changed to command a premium. If it's an N1, I think thats a totally different story! I sold a mint genuine 32 N1 for over $50G a couple of years back, but I think that car wouldn't pull over 35G or so now? The real problem with gtr's is that mod parts are just so readily available and cheap now, that virtually anyone can go and mod one to be easily better than whatever the factory ever released, and taht takes the "exclusivity" factor away from them. It was a different story even just a few years ago, when everything was hard/expensive to get. That's why I think only cars that were genuinly built for some form of motorsport will be collectable given time (ie. N1), and only then if they're left standard.

Just my opnion.....
