RX8 up for grabs..............

Hi All.....................

Anyone know anyone who's in the market for an RX8?

Mine's a 2003 Ti 6sp RX8 (Sept 03) 15,000klms, Leather Pack, Crests F & R, Strakes, Alloy Tank Cover, Carbon Fibre Interior Parts, Paint & Leather Treatment, Racing Beat Sway Bars and End Links, JIC FLT-A2 Coilovers (Lowered 1" all round), Racing Beat REV8 Exhaust, Racing Beat Aluminium Flywheel Kit, ULTRA 8mm Silicone Ignition Wires, aFe Air Filter, Oil Cooler Screens, 4 Spot AP Racing Calipers (Ric Shaw).

Lock has driven this car and knows how it handles! I haven't figured the price out yet and was wondering if I could get some input from you guys?!

Thanks.

Paul.

(I'll put a photo up tomorrow!).

good luck selling it
its probably better/easier to bring it back to standard and sell the aftermarket parts seperately.... thats if you can be bothered.
im sure someone would be interested in some of your parts
for example...... JIC coilovers => me :D

If you decide to put the car back to standard, I'd be interested in the AP Calipers and the RB flywheel.

I have had the pleasure of driving Pauls car and its all that and more , it represents a great buy , for the new car buyer , the car is immaculate .

Paul if you bring your ride back to stock before you sell i am happy to talk to you about the racing beat sway bars and end links .

cheers

Paul, the guys are right. You won't get your money back with the stuff on the car. Given the 5% tariff cut and recent dealer pricing, you'd be really lucky to get more than high 50's with the gear on the car.

Good luck ... and let us know what you get

Unfortunately most people wont pay the real dollar value for an upgraded car , and as Timbo stated the tarrif rate cut has not helped resale .

If you are fortunate enough to find the right buyer , who truly appreciates the effort money, time that you have put into your ride , and does not wish to go to the time and trouble of importing the goods on your car then you should get a great price .

cheers
