Wats My Skyline Worth

[Greekos]

anyways i had a thought about selling my skyline, so i put it on ebay, all calssifieds, and sau with a swap/cash adj. so far i'v been offered a 89 r23 gts with 245k on the clock , a unfinished show car, a custom civic hatch with hectic coilovers, and a sic mr2 with a bodykit and rims. (if anyone who offered me any of these cars reads this i don't mean to offend you). but it just shows how much our skylines have devaluated in australia. so in all ends im going to keep my skyline and continue to poor my money because nothing beats driving a 12yr old import that is quicker than the new flacodores,

/rant lol

Jeez, why were you thinking about selling? You've only had it for about 3 months

I drive my 19yo GTST as my daily driver while I have one of these

parked up - why? Because its not as good to drive... even though the GTST uses more fuel than the V8.

I don't understand.................they go hard [easily as hard as most modern cars], they have all the fruit - abs, climate control, power eveything etc etc, they have one of the biggest after market support bases so you can get just about anything you want, they still look absolutely the best [i actually hate the modern all angles and sharp creases], they are as or more reliable than a modern, tuned right you get over 500km out of a tank on the highway [and pushing 280+rwkw], they pull crowds like free plasma tv's, they handle as good as anything out there, if you write it off [prang, stolen, fire] your only down $15K and a good cry, and the list goes on............why would you want to sell???

At the present rate I reckon it will take the rest of the car industry a couple of light years to catch up. The only threat to the skyline market is the new GTR. Once it becomes s/h and cheaper, it will overtake and out strip the market [trust me I've seen this with other makes and types], but that is at least 10 years away.

i was only toying the idea of selling as i'm heading back to school and end up getting to drive it on the weekends, im def going to keep it now as i'v had too many stupid offer's.

Doesn't help that these cars are imported by the ship load so the more that get here the lower the price goes.

[Michele]

more imports, more cheap parts... bring em on, bout time everyone realised how good they are.

That's all part and parcel of selling a car mate.
