Welcome to the club. That car looks great. Too bad we dont get the nice stuff in America. How much did you pay for that and how many miles/km on it?

Its only done 59,700kms, and i paid 370,000 yen for the car, which is about 4700 aussie dollars, by the time i pay for freight etc, on the road i think close to 12,000 australian, which equates to about 8 grand or so U.S, so not expensive

That's a damn nice looking car, but it's no different to any US S5 with the same mods.

True, but no one here will buy real Advan rims for an FC.

(ok, maybe less than 1% would)

Damn, that sucks. It'll arrive right in the middle of winter!

It probably doesn't rain in Perth as much as Auckland though.
