funny stuff that, yeah look i see nothing wrong with making a low ball offer, so long as the person is serious about the offer has the money and willing to do the deal. a car is only worth the amount people will pay its that simple. i would need a hell of a lot of space to discuss my past experience so i deadset simpthasize with you on ur "sale" ive had sales go as long as 3 and 6 months. now that sucks

Thats so true dude... but i've realised that if someone wants a car bad enough they will pay what you ask but so called 'negotiation' for cars ALWAYS happens. Definition for this topic is "BALL BREAKERS".

Mine was advertised for a price.... I ended up paying that price (with some extras thrown in). I was a bastard about things being road worthy and tyres being decent.

Depending on their asking price, I'll pay, however, it better be in the condition for that price.

Dreams are annoying, give you $200 for a $500 item... err no... well I'll go elsewhere and get better for $250....

Ahh just reminds me so much of boostcruising, always people "That's what worth blah blah" when it's the market rate for the area ;) Too many tossers, but if you want to sell your goods you just be paitent and take it like a man.

Althought, if a person hasn't bought the car within 2 weeks consider him gone, or ask for a higher deposit (eg. they paid $50, then make them pay $500 if it's been 2 weeks, then $1000 more after 4 weeks). Heck they might even slowly pay off the car while it's in your hands haha.

Dealers aren't the only ones that will try to pressure you into buying. The first r33 I looked at was a bit bargain basement re: paint and interior, but the price was an absolute steal. Was almost considering buying it until i took it for a drive and noticed a bit of smoke when you shift gears.... :) when i said i'd get back to him the dude panicked and knocked $500 off his asking price. I'm trying to get away and he knocks ANOTHER $500 off the price. He was practically begging me to take it and he starts getting shitty telling me i'll never get a better deal etc. Then on the way home he rings me to tell me hes had an offer and do i want to make him an offer before he sells it to the other guy :( He just wouldnt give up. I couldve got it for a song but i knew that little bit of smoke was going to be worth big $$$ sooner or later. Not to mention it looked like he'd had a few orgies inside it :D

"i love GTR owners thinking theyre gods mostly cause they have a GTR... "

Yes and the problem with that is... :D *looks adoringly at his GT-R*

"...The f**kwit keeps calling me over the next 2 weeks to see how I'm going and have a chat. Either he wanted to get f**ked in the ass or he doesn't have any friends but at this point I really knew this guy was a headcase f**kwit..."
:(

I know we've moved on to tyre kickers but what about our own back yard...Someone posts their stuff for $XX and the next thing a member is posting that his mate can get one from busted-arse-astan for $xx-10%. then its on...thats crap

luvs it, i take it you are the one selling the big hp r33 gtr. read through your thread many times to see how the sale is going. i personally think if a person were really that interested they would call or PM you for a contact number and take it from there. when i saw my car advertised, recieved some photos, looked at it few days after and went out to buy it with cash/bank cheque. no internet chat required. its a nice gtr, good luck with the sale.

yeah croat thats mine, i get a fair few pms, unfortunatly with that type of car bring that type of interest. but alot of people want to talk and talk, with little if any serious intent.

    • Each province differs a bit but we only do mandatory vehicle inspections here for heavy vehicles (Think Ford F350 and up). Those inspections are done by mechanics that are approved by the government. Besides that, it's a free for all as long as the car looks stock.  I asked because I love seeing how engineering differs from country to country. Here in Canada, all designs must be stamped and signed before they can be brought to fruition. (I.E Bridges, structures, Electrical panels, machines, literally everything shy of a wooden table) This can only be done by a professional engineer or professional engineering technologist. Both are protected titles, but the latter having more of a limited scope in what they can stamp. To become a professional engineer, you must complete a 4-5 year bachelors degree in your field of engineering, be part of an engineering order and undergo 4 years of apprenticeship, testing and mandatory continues education. Same story for engineering technologists, but a 3 year associates degree in some form of engineering technology will suffice. If you do not comply, or pretend you're an engineer or technologist, off to jail you go. If you stamp a design that fails, off to jail you go. If you stamp a design that fails and kills someone (I.E Bridge collapse) Off to jail you go for a very long time, your family will be ridiculed on the news, neighbours will surround your home with pitch forks and your dog will disown you.  Same for specialised trades... Example Electricians must undergo 1.5 years of post high school education, 4 years of apprenticeship, testing and hold proper licences. It's for the best, but then we also wonder why we're so short on engineers and tradesmen haha
    • Not currently, I'm at the school where we teach people to build bridges and other fun things that involve making, or breaking things
    • I have a friend who has used Chequered Tuning and CMS. Went to CMS when Chequered had a long wait time which is kind of the norm (for good reason). Was very happy - I'm pretty sure the very simple thing you're asking will be simple.
    • lol that caught up a year quickly! good to see you on the track again, hoping to do it myself one day
    • Nah he was mega organised, the sort of guy that put (almost) every tool back every day, it made trying to work out where things were up to possible.  My shed needs a swedish death clean, I would have >20 part done jobs, its particularly hard to collect all required parts for a job ahead of time when you can't just pop into a shop and grab things
