What Are People Willing To Pay For An R34 Gtt?

[Col-GTSX]

Chalk pens are the go... their like liquid paper when set, so easy to come off...

just like what they use at QR/Willowbank to number cars

[Jay11]

Thanks for the advice.

Got a guy putting a deposit down

Hopefully his financing is all good!

I had massive hassles selling my r34 for a price I was going to be happy with so I sold my s14a drifter instead and gonna build the 34. The skyline is a much better car IMO anyway it's just the s14a was all built ready to go

Holy crap. Yeah I paid over $35K for mine about 4 years ago - was looking to sell but not willing to lose that much money - much rather hit the track and smash it instead.

Unfortunately the import market is saturated IMO, and it's a buyers market with the cost of living these days....I blame that Labor party

You'll get less money and less want for a 4 door auto, so relative to the price I'm selling mine for yours is on par.

Totally agree, I blame them too

[sonnyQ]

I have been plugging your car to a mate, Jay, but he is one of these guys that won't buy it simply because I have one

I for one am looking forward to a change of government. Being a qlder I am being fkd over by women at both levels.

[Col-GTSX]

I blame that Labor party

Bingo!

Totally agree, I blame them too

Bingo!

The entire market (except food, liquor & essentials) is down...

Australia is not spending their money, we are shopping more online than ever before and we are killing our local retailers...

More than 1 in 4 Aussies work in retail, hence the problem...

like 2 in 4.. or you mean 1.5?

i had it for sale for $8000 no roady no rego

This will put a lot of people off. They think they're buying a lemon. I did the same with a 7 year old Magna I'd owned since new a few years ago. It had a cracked windscreen and just couldn't be arsed getting it roadworthy, even though it was still registered at the time of advertising. People stayed away in droves, even at $6k asking price (equivalent models were selling for $12k at the time). I ended up trading it for $4k (TH manual sports - supposedly sought after in Magna circles.......apparently)

I'm in the same boat at the moment. Trying to sell my R33 (which I believe is your old one, Col!) and I'm not having too many enquiries. Even the time wasters are eerily quiet. The country is entering a recession but from talking to a few business owners here on the Gold Coast it's extra bad off here already.....

What do you guys reackon, have I priced her correctly/cheaply and need to play the waiting game, or am I dreamin' with the price??? (http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/topic/346233-1996-r33-gts-t-series-2-gold-coast-qld/)

[Col-GTSX]

that's her... wow, it makes me feel all funny to see her again...

so many hours labour, so much money to build & so much fun...

you must have bought it since i sold it i guess?

you gotta be willing to hang onto it... $15k is too cheap for her... just wait for the market to bounce...

cant get a clean S2 for less than 10-11k in stock form, little loan a monster one...

i put 15k just in the engine bay when i owned it over 3 years...

your add should read "$15k for engine, comes with free car"

[Turbotonic]

there great cars take your time with the sale you'll get what you want be patient

[TTT]

Let me know when either the OPs R34 or COL's old R33 is asking $10K.

I reckon it will be harder sellings Cols old r33 than the R34.

I sold my 33 non turbo 2 door about 12 months ago now - Almost factory but it looked like new, sold it in about 1 week. Had about 3-4 enquiries on the day it went onto car sales and sold it for 10k about 5 days after it went online. The guy that bought it took it without hesitation straight away with no checks - my mechanic was upset I sold it for as low as 10k...

I think my biggest seller was: RWC, clean photos, showed all receipts, all services and reports and even my old racq inspection.

GL with your sale mate but more importantly, good luck with your wedding - It only happens once mate so enjoy!

[TTT]

The P plate laws have meant Non turbo nuggets are now easier to sell.

$10k is heaps for a non turbo 33!

That's lucky mate.

Thanks
