ianphampton Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 (edited) Mods - I didn't put this in "For Sale" because I'm not selling it and it doesn't seem to be too realistic to put it as For Sale - but move it if you think it better! Anyway - my son saw this in the September issue of Classic & Sports Cars, thought someone on here might want it ! All I can say is - I think it a tad overpriced! Actually - edit the post - it might only be 9800 miles, but . . . .needs new clutch, probably!

veilside z Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 Yes just a tad. They made a few of these so not sure if he actually drove that exact one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HiddenWomble Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 what i don't get is how they figured out that a car that had been used by a main character in most of the films, who has since passed away before his time, is worth 30K less than a car the bad guy in just 1 film had...

Jetpilot Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 The add says it has full documentation, aps twin turbo etc I always seem to remember the one in the film having the graphics, obviously your pic suggests otherwise, but perhaps the graphic one is the main film car?

StevoD Posted August 3, 2015 Share Posted August 3, 2015 film is on Itv2 now and in every seen it has no graphics on the passenger side Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jetpilot Posted August 4, 2015 Share Posted August 4, 2015 Well going on the info we had before, 11 were built with only two getting the full works, turbo kit etc, graphics aside, with full documentation this is from the film and having the turbo kit etc, imho its as real as its going to get or find, that is if anyone had £150k burning a hole in their pocket.

Rock_Steady Posted August 4, 2015 Share Posted August 4, 2015 If anyone had any sense at all, they spend the 150k on a zed and pay someone to do exactly the same thing for them for a fraction of the price if that's what they wanted. I can't see the attraction that it was used in the F & F TD and spent the first years of its life being thrashed around a Tokyo car park. Not that thrashing the conkers of it bothers me but it's not exactly an attractive selling point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KyleR Posted August 4, 2015 Share Posted August 4, 2015 From a documentary I seen on the franchise, all cars in the movies have the same GM engine and drivetrain, probably an LS of sorts, but I can't remember which. So if this is running a VQ, I'd be inclined to think it's not authentic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jetpilot Posted August 4, 2015 Share Posted August 4, 2015 There is and its white, haha. Do we know which photos are real, do we know if the graphics werent applied afterwards to level it up to the drivers side? It has documentation, probably from Universal Studios, its really the only thing that matters, none others advertised have that and that is what will sell this car, whether thats anywhere near £150k is a completely different story Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StevoD Posted August 4, 2015 Share Posted August 4, 2015 (edited) its not only graphics, the whole car has changed colour if so as it was a matt grey its now a metallic gunmetal would explain the engine bay colour change mind, I just cant see why you change a famous car to then sell it Edited August 4, 2015 by StevoD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jetpilot Posted August 4, 2015 Share Posted August 4, 2015 (edited) http://www.neweraimp...winTurbo(430bhp)Fast&Furious-TokyoDriftORIGINALFILMCAR!!!.pdf Full Newera spiel too for anyone that is interested. Sorry cant seem to link correctly, just copy and paste into browser. But note: Having just completed a complete bodywork restoration to crazy levels of perfection, the body work and accompanying artwork is absolutely flawless. In quest for perfection, Newera commissioned an entire specialist respray with many layers followed by deep coats of laquer to create a stunning level of finish before laying complete new high-quality decals of original one-off Veilside design.
