Buying a Skyline from the country??

[arm85]

Hey guys bit of a newbie here but i guess we all started somewhere, anyway in the next month i am hopefull to purchase my first skyline, as i live in wagga wagga there isnt much choice down here so i was wondering what u guys recomend as the best way to purchase meaning, will cause me the least amount of hassle and still be able to get a good deal, either private buy, dealership, or importing, i am willing to travel to look at cars and to pick up after purchase but as i am working 2 casual jobs atm i would prefer not to do this too often, if it help iam looking to purchace a r32 gtst or a type m.

Thanks in advance guys any opinions or suggestions would be helpful.

what's your budget, depending on that you can go thru an import agent, or if you can spare the extra dosh and want some peace of mind, go to a dealer or make a private buy from Sydney.

A LOT of people are beginning to offload their R32's I've noticed due to their concerns over the 15 yr R32's flooding the market. Changes are coming in August that should see an end to that So now's the perfect time to buy as everyone's underpricing everything.

prob at the moment anything from 17k down, that would mean i could get its as soon as possible, obviously if i can get something cheaper say a cheap stock example, i would be happy then i could spend some money on some mods.

people in melb are selling good series 2 (ones made after August 1991) r32 gtst's for around 14k so you should be sweet regardless.

So u reckon buy private from melbourne,what would be the best way to do this just grab a melb. paper like the herald and look through the classifieds and search this site or would there be a quicker way?? thanks again for your help sorry if the answers seem obvious

firesports.com.au and this site would have the cheapest skylines on it coz people know we know how much their car is worth and won't put bs prices on here.
