Just get yours rebuilt if you still have em ... some of the larger upgraded ones will get laggy , but you can get a chip upgrade to the TTS arena of tune easy enough also.. They will fit in hand carry 😀. and luft is on in the states too...... @reggiegums if they are the ones that came with the blue TT beast you had sometime back , by own recollection they had more dust than use and were very low kms when taken off and should be very serviceable, i traced that car if thats where there from outta the Uk.

Yes some big margins ..even with a dent in max resale price for being a dirty import. I have seen a SA car at a local meet and looked just fine , you wouldnt know, I had a look underneath, around rubbers and under bonnet and engine bay and it didnt seem to show any particular wear, also on running gear just like any car and was supposedly an original build. My review not so scientific but each country kinda looks different in my own experience if not restored on running gear and even grime although all have been cleaned for import. I have had UK, HK , US and LHD cars worthy of note contrary to the folklore, many of the UK models are also pampered and clean and kept inside during the salty seasons .. I wide body 993 NA worked to the nuts and a growly cam and exhaust would be my fancy and seems like an ok prospect if you can find one..gotta love a TT and they are crazy priced here but margins aside a spoilerless 993 just up there in looks I dont recall seeing you post one .. you need one A purple one

Hot Rod slant nose price drop
symsy replied to tomo's topic in General Marketplace and Values Discussion
Exactly as we described in our chat.. I think there has to be a little haggle room , its sport.. The beat them down approach isnt a favourite outlook , I personally like to be met with I can fix it attitude or take it off the price if its a fair PPI for example . This car seems to have lots of buck piled in .. I think its just that people taste blood in the financial waters .. and we have seen such amped pricing for some time .. its hard to gauge If im not aligned in general on market I wouldn't offer 20% less , but I would start there and see the response .. no offence in asking, iF i personally offer it because i see it as a good car but have a price threshold. Funky times out there , im still loving the white.. I guess overall the fizz is out of the market unless you got something very very special . that outweighs price and people pay over the odds. Time on market will tell .. its a cool looking AC car if you wanted one ..hard to fault its presentation -

The hipsters have arrived in Byron for their holidays -

symsy replied to tomo's topic in General Marketplace and Values Discussion
Byron , nice place for a holiday and swim at the beach, potentially a great place to take a test drive.. but having trying sold a few cars outta that location , I sense ..its gonna take a lower price and more than a plane ticket to entice people to put the time into a buy . Maybe i take an ice cream run drive and take a look.. is anyone seriously interested or made a genuine enquiry ? The white looks mighty fine, maybe its gonna be a white xmas for someone -
Boredom and Bitcoin does that to people.. it really comes down to whats well priced and whats special.. at the moment I feel. We all really want our GT car to be special, not spanked and passed around the auction houses and wholesalers.. even if it is merely a perception thing. They all need to be virgins in the eyes of the new owners!

Its because it wasn't on the Byron Bays influencers program and that suspension setup and white colour of the Byron back roads terrible..
