hey guys and girls,

yesterday i was waiting in the car park while my my girlfriend was doing the shopping and i was approached by a gentleman probably in his mid 40's named john patterson. (if your on here mate - "g'day to you young fella!" haha).

anyway, john advised he couldnt help but notice my car and advised "it is the cleanest, all original, unmolestered GTR i have ever seen". john then continued to speak and offered me $33,000 for my car that afternoon. an offer which i refused. his offer than turned to $34,000 and then to $35,500. these offers which were also refused. :) john left on good terms in his black 7 series beamer leaving me his number if i was to change my mind.

my car is not for sale, it took me too long to find her. and i only know of one other duplicate which is sitting in the nissan gallery. but it got me thinking - if your cars not for sale, what sort of money would it take for YOU to give in and sell?

cheers! :)

A car is only worth what someone is prepared to pay for. If he's willing to pay $35,500, then that's how much it's worth to him. If he offers more, then it's good for you and not good for him. I dont know how much your car is really worth if he didnt make you that offer, but if it's 100% original with low kms, no accidents, and is as good as you say, then it's worth more than your average R33 which are in the $20k's.

Some guy came up to me 2 months ago and said he was looking for a GT-R in exactly the same colour as mine. With only 185 being made in MP III, I told him yes it's not easy to find in that colour and you would have to import one yourself as mine was not for sale. But if someone offered me, say 20k above the price I paid for it, I would seriously consider selling to get a later model R34.

a friend offered me 14 grand, which im considering...only cos i wanna buy a gtr and i no the market is shit, and if i put mine out there for 14grand, people would start offering 10 :(

I dont really think the difference is all that great. If you're a series 1 or 2 with the series 3 lights, you'll still be looking at the series 3 price (maybe 1k cheaper which is insignificant). Condition and mileage are again the deciding factor in terms of pricing IMO). around 24-30k will get you something decent doesnt matter series 1/2/3.

I got a random PM asking me if my car was for sale,

I said no, To that he replied "Everythings for sale at the right price" Which is fair enough, But i honestly have no interest in selling her at this point in time.. Even if i was offered good money.. :)

I'd have to say if it was the right price i'd let mine go thats actually how i sold my 33 someone offered me 15K for it and i thought time to upgrade and got myself a 34 but in saying that i really love my 34 so would be a lot harder to let go i'd reckon.
