Well after thinking about it for a while, I've decided to sell the V35.

Absolutely love the car, but looking to drop the home loan a little quicker.

Here's the link to the for sale thread. Drop me a PM if anyone's interested.

I have met with Bobby previously and anyone looking to get into a 35 should put this one at the top of their list. The car is in fantastic condition, very well cared for, by an owner who actually cares about the car. This is everything you want.

Best of luck Bobby!

Cheers mate.

Appreciate the kind words. Don't make it too easy for someone to buy it :-)

I've been looking at G35.Driver a bit and starting to have second thoughts, as i can picture a nice Top Secret front bar on the car and a turbo kit to match :-)

Oh, and where are the pics of the car with the wheels?

interesting to see you selling

especially since you just sold your other one to get this one!

there's nothing more behind the sale?

is it not meeting your needs as a daily or something?

i must say, its a very nice example of a V35..

Hey Waz,

Nothing more to it at all mate. I actually love the V35's and as said am in no rush to sell and really have no problem in keeping it. As a daily it's great. I have 2 young boys and the car can easily serve a family of 4, even when we head down the coast and fill it with toys.

At the end of the day, I have a young family and have just finsihed building my second new house, which has gone slightly over budget.

Putting on my reponsible long term hat, the money would simply be better spent on the loan rather than being tied up in the car.

I'm still a car freak at heart and will either move to a cheaper car like a neat 32 GTR for weekends only, or potentially a track only car.

SOLD!

Well, as of today I am officially V35-less.

Thought i would handle it ok, but pretty sad watching it head down the street for the last time.

Tomorrow I'm going to get my nuts removed, and will then buy a Mirage or something to go to and from work.

Sad to hear, but it's all for a good cause...

Mirage's a fun little car... not all that bad. Taking advantage of Mitsubishi's usually huge depreciation value you should be able to find something in good condition for a great price!

surprising you sold it so quick?

Hey Bobby

I feel for you. Everytime I part ways with a car I used to own, it feels like heart wrench. But looking after the family is important.

Hope you'll stay around in the forums; I'm sure everybody agrees that it wouldn't be the same without you.

Thanks Guys,

Being such a nice car it was definitely sad. The new owner was really wrapped so that was good. I've never seen someone smile so much when handing over large sums of cash :-)

I'll definitely be around, no plans on going anywhere. Have started the search for a weekend only GTR so won't be out of a Skyline for long.

Rianto, it sold sought of quick. It was just a matter of waiting for the right buyer.

With the TE37's on I sold it for around $40k.

Which i think was pretty good for an 04 with 60k's. It's why i tell people not to rush it unless your desperate, and hold your price.

My auto non premium, in 100% stock condition also sold for $40k last November.

It helps to though that both were genuine, very well looked after cars.

Yeh you see alot of cheap V35 going around thesedays i knew someone who sold a black one with 19s auto non-premium for $29,000 he didnt want to sell it that low but he had to cause he reckons they are hard to sell.

Gotta say, they're not the easiest car to sell, but at the same time, those interested know what they want, and have usually done a bit of reaserch on the car.

So whne they find a good example, they usually know it.

Mark, I made $6k on my auto :-), and lost a couple on the 6MT, considering i changed the clutch and stuff. But overall came out on top if you look at both cars.

      Out here E90s are the cheapest way into a sporty-ish car because everyone knows just how expensive the repairs can get. 8-10k USD for an automatic 335i.

      Noted. Have noticed BMW are more 'high maintenance' for sure. They've attracted my attention as I think the used car prices seem reasonable vs other options, and the extra quality overall vs a commodore / camry / corolla or similar of the same vintage is appealing, especially the interior, and they are more on the sporty side whereas the others mentioned can be more cruising or economical A-to-B only.

      Haha yeah I know, this is SAU after all, why are we talking about BMW's of all things!? I hear you on the 'don't have to worry about it' side of things. Having been fortunate enough to be have been able to buy a brand new motorbike or two...never really enjoyed them as much as I'd have liked as you worry so much about where you park it, will it get scratched, stolen, attempted theft, knocked over, etc...and yes dirty. Older less valuable bikes you can just go where you want and park it wherever and not really worry that much in comparison. And who cares if it gets dirty! Never owned a V8, and have had my eyes on VE / VF commodores for years but with their prices climbing so high, the M3 has come into focus more as prices are much closer than I've ever seen...is it a potential contender now?...of course need to factor in the S65 'maintenance' especially and like you said general M car 'tax'. One can dream anyway. But more on the reality front - did read the whole 330i thread as well and was a great read too, both threads enlightening as I've never even driven one of these cars! I do recall 330i didn't seem to have the same amount of issues for almost the same car (turbos and related differences notwithstanding)...perhaps down to getting it earlier in it's life so looked after better than the 335i? Perhaps so as your 130i has been good and quite similar, so finding a car that's been looked after well is the especially-crucial-BMW-first-step.

      Nice. Dont worry about the time of not running. My current skyline hasn't run since I bought it. About 8 years ago.

      It's also worth noting that I am heavily and unconditionally biased. I've had a lot of cars including some GTRs a fair while ago. I love my BMW's now a lot. They make no sense a lot of the time and the guys on here remind me regularly that I could get something else that does what I want better and cheaper. If you're going to take on an older BMW it's definitely a commitment. If you bail on it early you'll lose money and also the ability for it to put a smile on your face. Stick with it and it just gets better.  f**k I should get into advertising.
