Im Importing V35 350 Gt And Have Some Questions

[Mr Eps]

hmmm...

i suggest (no pressure) but contact (if you wish)

ben from jspec

Kristian from Iron Chef

Aaron from Import Monster

if you can get your deposit back and walk away as you've said (which i question)

then feel free to go that route.. personally i hate being stuffed around in situations like this where your financial investment is in the hands of many third parties who aren't pulling their weight.

I am importing my V with Iron Chef .

[Mr Eps]

Good on you man.. Hope you're enjoying the process. Just don't answer your phone if he drunk dials you. I hear he gets on the turps and beats his lovers!

But.. Some people say that keeps the relationship exciting..

[MikhailV87]

I am enjoying the process, I can't wait for that thing to get here! I daydream about it everyday...

yeah...........google Ed Lee !!!!! ---Mate of mine had "interesting" experience !!! ............Hey, you can buy my black 350GT for much cheaper -its got got another 2 doors though & you can actually see it / drive it

[.:: GimpS-R34 ::.]

Go with Kirstian from Iron Chef.. Never heard a bad thing about him.. Gives free reacharounds too..

[Iron Chef]

I'm starting to wonder whether, due to the popularity of my reacharounds, I should start charging for them - I think there might be potential to make good money.

This guy is trying to save money by importing it himself and not buying one that is already here. The one in the pic is an 03 Premium Auto in black which ok could be worth another 2K on top of a Silver. But how many V35 Premium Auto coupes can you get for $20,000 on carsales when bargaining with the seller. Given the same car here you would only get $23,000 for it at the most if you sold it tomorrow. These cars are not all that easy to sell. So if the guy wants a bargain and that is why he is doing it to save some money then it should cost under $20,000 for it to be worth it. You are paying $7000 to much when you compare it to cars you can buy here right now. Manuals Premiums are more expensive than Black autos and I know of a few that have sold for less than $23,000. What people ask and what they get are completly different things.

G35me is bang on ........painfully hard to sell these things when the time comes --very limited market.......even worse for a sedan!! There's some great cars already here that you can actually sit in,drive & check out -rather than risking a sight- unseen one with an "interesting" importer .

I wanted a black sedan--so i waited..........& one came up in Botany (Vesrion one) ---cloth interior but i wasn't a fan of the leather/suade combo of the premiums ---i drove it ---got it checked out by Stateroads for $350 ---perfect!.....bought it & its never given me any trouble. Only trouble I have is now trying to sell it for a reasonable price.......and when its $5K lower than other series II (in black --or silver), & still no calls .....people must think its got issues. Frustrating!!! Trouble is, people in general public land only know 350Z & maximas & are spooked by "imports"....even when they are superior to the local cars.

If i were you man, I'd pull out now........and check out the ones already here for much less. At $27K ..you'll never get anywhere near your money back if you have to sell one day. (like me)

[Iron Chef]

While I agree with you in some aspects, I have plenty of customers who come to me prepared to spend more than what cars are fetching locally - some people want to know their kms are legit, some are looking for a specific car that they can't find locally, and others just prefer importing something themselves.

Thanks for that update today Kristian, only 8 days before she gets on the boat!

Did you make a mess in your pants when Kristian gave you the email with 40+ attatchments of your baby? I remember i did, made the slight wait even more exciting

[Iron Chef]

Poor old Mikhail has to wait for his pics, because it would've cost a bundle in transport to move it where we could get pics in Japan, so once it lands we'll get some good ones for him

[MikhailV87]

Yeah I only have 3 photos of the car . I am sure its in good nick being auction grade 4.5.

[Iron Chef]

Well my buyer certainly liked it! lol

[MikhailV87]

Yayyy that's a good sign! Btw what happens after compliance in Brisbane, does it go back on the boat or come to Perth by train?

[Iron Chef]

Email me and I'll fill you in
