How Much Would This Vs2 Potentially Sell For In Oz?

[DR-JEKL]

I seen this damn tasty VS2 the other day and was wishing I had $70K to buy it and import it.

Then I got thinking what would this be worth on the Australian market?

I presume it wouldnt be worth as much as a NUR but it has a lot of tasty pieces!

Ideas guesstimates any1?

So globalauto purchased the car at an auction originally and have relisted it for sale through their dealership?

Would it fetch $80K here in Oz? I presume it would be about $72K landed here and complied?

I don't want to shock you. but that is what car dealers do.... they buy cars. at auction, or privately, then re-list them for more money. just like you are wanting to do. only you'd have a better chance of turning a profit by not buying your car retail from a car dealer.

Lol I realise that, I just wasn't sure if Iron Chef meant he seen it being auctioned by global auto or seen it being auctioned off prior to global auto purchasing the car. As it is now the price global have on it seems very reasonable which makes me wonder why iron chefs client didn't purchase the car from the auctions as it would have obviously been cheaper then what it is now!?

Im not wishing to sell it, I just started thinking what would this car be worth in Oz. It would be worth $70k at least but $8-90k is getting into NUR territory which I would presume would be more desirable then a tarted up VS2?

I really don't see even a Nur being worth $80-$90K in aus and a V-spec II is not rare or special at all. there's plenty of nice VS2s around if that's what you're specifically after. it has some nice bolt on bits no doubt but nothing serious, still standard engine etc. It might be worth $65,000 or so in the current market, or one special buyer may pay more, or you may not be able to sell it at all and end up taking $60K or less even. hard to say at the moment. but there is nothing that really sets is apart above other nice mildly modified R34 GTRs.
