It's difficult to put a price tag on a car with a lot of modifications. It really depends on the buyer. Were I to guess, I think the car will end up selling for 1/2 to 2/3 that asking price, but it is possible that somebody out there is willing to pay the full price.

theres absolutely no way thats worth that much. id say 4,000 american at most. i dont think theres even 15000C put into that car except maybe in body work, which looks stupid imo anyway. anyone who pays that much for it is an idiot. you could get a decent fd for just a little bit more than that price.

Radically overpriced, and what a mess... at very least he needs to paint the dash board to match the rest of the interior that he swapped... If he can't make the interior match (a pretty simple thing) or the fender trim match to the correct series trim on the door, or even stick the wires up under the dash before taking a picture... welll then he probably micky moused a bunch of the other mods as well.

yeah, it is way overpriced if you ask me, seems he put a lot of money into the body work and he is trying to suck that out of the buyer.


Icemark pointed out my first observation, the interior jumped out at me like a sore thumb, looks like a checker board in there..
