Meh, you'll see it when you get home...

[UNR33L]

You bought an Italian bike

They get 10 strikes before you should even think about considering potentially listing on bikesales...maybe

Should have bought an R1

It's not too late

Or get back into Skylines and have fun even in the wet

haha gonna see how long warranty takes this time and if they actually have a propper fix for it, you google it and it's everywhere

had a quick look online.. there isn't really any other bike around the same price that i'd actually want

Orlando stepped on my laptop (somehow with seemingly a lot more force than a sub 20kg person could exert).... this is unlikely to occur

few more years and these could be worthwhile...

210,000 kms o_O

chauffeur probably lived in woop-woop and had to take the kids to the pony club, polo club, la crosse club, parties, funerals, weddings, important events, airport etc.

Believe it or not cars don't spontaneously combust after 100,000km

However that is a fair wad of cash for it - what did they retail for?

$230k / $240k

It's depreciated a dollar per kilometre.

I know but you all seem to be forgetting when something breaks replacement parts cost the equivalent of what parts cost for a $200k+ car not the $55k you paid 8 years later.

Either way that one is over priced you can get way lower kms for similar money

[Leroy Peterson]

black on black will always have a premium.

I reckon if they dropped to current LS430 prices (under $20k) it would be awesome value for money (in the luxury long-wheelbase department anyway). though, the new (and smaller/shorter) Toyota's coming through in Japan are very competitively priced.

speaking of luxury... my doilies turned out (or appears) to be a genuine Nissan item.

inb4 i charge Nismo prices for it.

hate day trips interstate,

at least got a Business bump for the return

I definately wouldn't want to price up replacement regenerative-braking motors for it though...

So glad I see zero appeal in this whole VIP/pretending it's an old kunts car thing..

You wouldn't understand the complexities of right wing luxury

just like any car, you know the in's, out's, do most of the work yourself and know where to get reasonably priced parts and its a much better ordeal.

if people dont want to do that but still want a unique car, then they have to accept its going to be pricey to maintain.
