Re: Motorex Question

I can think of two reasons for lowering their prices:

1. They finally recoup their investment from buying and crash testing nine Skylines, and other various starting capital expenditures(building, tools, etc).

2. Skylines depreciate, reducing Motorex's initial outlay. This may not happen with some models, as I've heard good R32 GT-Rs are actually starting to appreciate(increase) in value.

Otherwise, there probably won't be a price decrease. They still have fixed costs like paying workers, buying parts, and other various operating expenses(power and water??). It seems like a lot of people forget about those issues associated with running a business(they ain't a charity), and just say Motorex is too expensive.

Just wait until 2014... From then on, it will be a steady decrease in MotoRex business...

Re: Motorex Question

theyre prices wont go down. if anything they will go up as the demand for the parts goes up. the only reason the prices would go down, would be if they got a lot of business and they could order the parts in in bulk. right now their business is based on a car by car basis. legalizing skylines isnt their main source of income.

Honestly I don't see the post 1995's being legal until 2014. From all I've read it seems even bringing in and legalizing ANY skyline is getting to be a major pain in the arse.
