This is the owners Instagram https://instagram.com/ryan_370z_ I’ve seen it in person, it’s not the best quality build. it’s been up for sale for a very long time. Would you not rather buy a close to standard one and modify it to your own taste? Quote
Taye370z Posted April 29, 2020 Author Posted April 29, 2020 So are you saying this build is not up to the best quality? Would it be wiser not to buy this one? This is sort of the build i would want to go for but could never afford... maybe not a few bits like the spoiler but a widebody its very JDM. I dont have the most knowledge on 370s or this car so if you boys think its wiser for me not to get this then i will listen Quote

I personally wouldn't buy a car thats been modified to that extent as I'm sure a lot of it is irreversible especially if the arches have been cut. Also got to think are you likely to plan to sell in the future at all, if so be prepared to have your money tied up. That car has been for sale close to a year I reckon. Quote
Taye370z Posted April 29, 2020 Author Posted April 29, 2020 Wow a year.... thats a long time. I do like the look of it and all that but I want to tied down to it if I want to sell it. Thanks mate Quote

Mikey_S Posted April 30, 2020 Posted April 30, 2020 Could be worth sitting tight and waiting for lockdown to lift, there's going to be more cars available in the summer, Spring / Summer seems to be the typical selling time for these cars and as our Spring is knackered, Summer may bring a decent spike in availability. If the Mazda goes, could get yourself a cheap run about, or if the option is there, borrow a family members car etc Quote

Lewis Schwier Posted April 30, 2020 Posted April 30, 2020 @coldel I think you're right! If you can afford to buy now I think its the best time too. Some of the prices I've seen are absolute steals Quote

Taye370z Posted April 30, 2020 Author Posted April 30, 2020 Yeah im gonna pass on that widebody 370. Its too ridiculous for me. Yeah ive read that GTRs are going down in price so sit and wait. Who knows how long we will be in this lockdown 1 Quote
coldel Posted April 30, 2020 Posted April 30, 2020 (edited) It really depends on the car and how many people are buying, an R35 is not really typical of the market or the type of buyer. If there are suddenly a load of pent up potential car buyers suddenly surging the market for Golfs/Focus/Astras etc. when lockdown is eased up the prices will not go down, any good business will price accordingly and if their stock is flying off the forecourts with buyers to spare they know they are selling too cheap. But yes, by all means play the market game, see how far you can hold out for, but don't be surprised if prices don't continue to drop once lockdown eases and people get back into more normal behaviours such as buying cars.
