Ebay foolishness... $1600 Spirit R steering?

Someone on ebay is selling a Spirit R Nardi steering wheel for 1600$

Makes $3000 Recaro RZ seats sound like a bargain!

Sheesh.

Retail on a 93-95 steering wheel is $1200-$1400 - NOT including the airbag. It's not uncommon for older, airbag equipped vehicles to be totalled out by insurance companies simply because the airbags deployed.

Would I pay that much though? No. But I'm sure there is someone with money that wants it, and could drop that kind of change and not even blink.

The Flying M wheel, 99-02 here in Japan is $800 almost on the dot, of course without the airbag too.

This Ebay guy is on crack. Never know maybe I sold them to him before for $500-$800 each since I did sell a crap load of them

Hmmm, so late model OEM FD part prices are lower? Want to go back into business, dealing strictly in OE parts? I've got about $400 in brand new FD trim/moldings sitting in the closet right now, and have another $6-700 to go before I replace everything with new.

Haha It'd be awesome if you went back into business. I wish I would have known about you sooner or I would have gotten a lot of parts.

Even though it is the price of a Spirit R seat, the wheel does look damn nice.
