Does it come with $6000 in the boot?

Just seeing where the market is at and where there's interest as i'm in no rush at all to sell. I know what I payed for it and what's gone into it, and it might be ambitious but to the right person they might see the value.

The problem with cars is you never get the money you spent on them back. For example, you can say you spent 30k but you're not gonna get it back.

I reckon 6k would be the limit. Great looking fto though GL with sale legend

Why's everyone selling aye! Good luck man, hope you get a decent price, it's a clean vR so that should do you some favours anyway.

If he wrapped it blue it would definitely be worth $10k

Goodluck Tom!

Doubt you'd find a cleaner Version R other than Brendans old turbo GPvR and dstocks.

They are going up in price in japan but the local market is low.

Out of curiosity what brand are the extractors?

I feel left out. [emoji20]

You need to fix the cracks in your sideskirts.....

Seriously though, your is on that list too.

Almost done, new skirts just need paint

lol @ you bastards...

The only reasoning behind my pricing was because Nath bought Renz's FTO for $7000...and I got around 5 offers over the period of 2-3 months all over $6k for my fully hectic blue scissor door FTO ... So I put it up for $10, brought it down to 9...got an offer at $7750, but turns out I had an oil leak so had to re-negotiate to $7350. Took 4 months to sell. I knew I was selling to a niche market, I knew it would take a while (even though in my case, not as long as I thought), but it doesn't change the fact that it did sell. Besides I think Sahin mentioned he sold his FTO last year for $8k lol, so anything is possible...especially if you have an FTO as clean as Tom's.

Glws mate, I'm sure the right buyer will come along eventually for it. Hang in there.

Yeah but my FTO had a lot more desired and a lot more going for it that your one lol

I have no doubts, but idk what yours was like and I almost got $8k ;D. How does it compare to Tom's because his is really clean...

sooo cleannn
