89 Vert Turbo... 11,500??

Think this is a good price? Seems a little steep, but does have low Kms....

Does the JDM FC3S suffer from the same mods that it seems like most Skyline owners do? Swapping the speedometer for one that displays more than 180km/hr rendering the odometer to be inaccurate? Of course they could be honest and make sure the original mileage was documented or the replacement cluster displays the same mileage.

In any case, you would have to check how much it would cost to import one yourself and compare the prices and factor in the mods. Is the premium in price worth it to be able to look and check over one that already been registered in Canada??

seems like a totally reasonable price if it really is in great condition.
and considering it is a factory turbo convertible, you are paying quite a bit for rarity value...
