1989 Nissan Skyline GTS-T

[Type-R]

There's two ways too look at it...

1) It's a public forum and any post that is made is open to criticism.

2) Anyone is allowed to sell whatever they want at whatever price, does that mean they will get it? Nope. Does it mean you have to buy it? Nope.



As for price, it may be high BUT that is all 100% relative. You can get a similar car for under around $5k plus shipping BUT there is no guarantee you'll even receive the car. Drive-on/drive off shipping is $800-1000. A crate is a minimum of $1,200 plus dock fees for loading and unloading. Then you have to deal with customs. If you don't have the paperwork from the DOT and EPA then they have the right to either put it back on the boat or crush it.

1) There's no guarantee they'll even ship you the car, who are you to dispute it with? Just wait in line with the millions of other Americans ripped off from overseas purchases.

2) There's not really any insurance coverage for losing it or damages it on the boat.

3) There's no guarantee you'll successfully legalize & register it.

You factor all that in then is paying the extra few thousand $$$ not worth it to have it at your door the same day ready to go with no red tape involved?

QFE, excellent post

This car is a good buy for someone who doesn't care to deal with the process of buying and shipping these. More so it's a good buy for people who don't know the process of shipping, etc.

But be warned, if this car was "imported" post-2006 it's a risk factor cause it's illegal. Only 96-98 33 GTR/GTS/GTS-t/GT-25/GT-25t models can be brought in now. Those other models already registered prior to the change are still legal.

Well dont worry about the haters...who think what you asking is overpriced. You are asking a very reasonable price IMO. 1)the car is like a collectors item 2)Even if its not a GTR its still rare 3) The model you have is legal so you did alot of the leg work already. Your time is valuble as well.
Bump again (Good luck with the sell bro)

3) The model you have is legal

Only if it was imported/registered prior to 2006, if you look at the current list of accepted vehicles you'll find only 96-98 R33's are allowed.
