Hello!

 

Ive been registered here for ages but never got around to buying a 350, however, now I am in a postision to buy one again and I have spotted the below car:

seems good value for a 2007 facelift with circa 25,000!

 

Anything ringing any alarm bells?

 

If all good i should be able to move tomorrow or wednesday!

 

Thanks all

i would certainly look into it but to me that seems way too good to be true. its too cheap i would say the normal price for that is at least 3k on top of the asking price

[sidekickdmr]

Thats what i thought, i have spoken to him briefly and he confirmed hpi clear etc, i will do my own hpi anyway but does seem cheap.

Even though its non GT pack - its far too good to be true - I'd be going over that with a fine tooth comb

[Zugara]

Somethings not quite correct....too cheap. IMO.

No rear spoiler, perhaps he took it off, find out if he still has it? Depends on what you prefer I guess

 

That's also a HR engine with 309 HP, the ad states 280 so another thing to ask, other than that, looks fine and clean

Its a JDM, not all of them came with rear spoilers

 

Still very cheap though

[sidekickdmr]

so its an import?

[Dblock]

sweet looking car, plus nice tasteful mods. Volks too, look a little to good to be true.

[Ian]

so its an import?

 

Yup

[kevlo]

how do you know its an import?

[sidekickdmr]

does it being an import mess about with the sat nav/speedo etc?

[Boycey]

I might be wrong but I doubt it's an import, the reg plates are all wrong but can be changed

 

Also, it has an 80 litre tank, thought was was only a uk thing

[Ian]

No headlight washers, square rear plate, lack of spoiler just to start with. Its an import

[clarkie34]

The rear bumper has the recess for import plate.

Just noticed all the above, yep, it's an import

[BulletMagnet]

Does the numberplate look ~JDM sized to me?

Possibly an import?

[kevlo]

if the only downside is that its non gt and an import then its a bargain imo!!

[sidekickdmr]

I like it but whats resale like on this colour?

[BulletMagnet]

Temper Orange is a rare colour, so if selling within the community, it might find a home, but why even think of re-sale value, you are keeping it forever surely
