nice car, do you really think its worth $80k, though?

i love skylines, but damn, that is a lot of $$$$ for an R33

i prefer the look of the R32 anyways (just looks meaner)

seems like you could get one cheaper through motoRex

expect inflation prices like this, because motorex isnt in business anymore. and yes motorex was cheaper...about half as cheap (~45k) for a street legal r33 GT-R.

Re: R33 Gtr Fs?



These guys think since they're no long being brought in by MotoRex that they can put down any price they want.

Problem is, there wasn't a big demand for them when MotoRex was bringing them in. And sad to say, but most of the people who knew of the Skyline learned about it from Video games or movies such as the Fast and the Furious 1 & 2.

And as we know, most kids can't afford such cars. So driving up the cost a Skyline that's been imported is a great idea, but isn't practical.

They're pricing themselves out of business so to speak. Have to keep it obtainable if they want to make it appealing to people who can afford them.

Unless they're trying to market to the uber wealthy who don't care of the price. But then again, the wealthy who want a Skyline, probably already have one.


EDIT:
I'll see your $80,000 R33 with this R33 GTR Midnight purple ebay
Current bid is just over $20,000 US dollars.

I'd rather take my chances with the cheaper one thank you very much.

IIRC, the owner of the MP vspec was trying to sell that here on AF a few months ago.

Re: R33 Gtr Fs?

there is no way to "interpit" the word legal. legal and illegal is very clearly defined. theres no grey area.

and learn to spell...it would be easier for us to "interpit" what you are saying. because i have no clue what your first post said.

see I knew what this thread was talking about but as I kept reading I got lost. +D. The point is the skyline is too overpriced and I dont think anyone is going to buy it for that price +D
