Has anyone tried to sell their FD to Motorex?

On their website, it says they will buy modified cars.

I am considering selling my single turbo FD, so looking at all alternatives.


Thanks

Haven't thought about it. I suppose it depends on how much they'd be willing to dish out.... they said they'd pay top dollar.... well, that could be anything

think...
they have to resell it an make money. you will ALWAYS get more money selling it to a private party.

uh IIRC Motorex is done for. and for that matter in a fair amount of trouble

Comet

You are and also are not correct our fair young miss. I'll find the other thread here in a few.... Motorex is actually under new management and rising from the ashes.

ok well i hadnt heard the new info then. but i knew they had gotten themselves into aheap of trouble a little while ago.

Comet

They had, it was a HUGE fandangle.... but it's rough ya know? trying to bring in a car the the US DOT is scared shitless of.... the man had to try to control our freedoms of the road.... What Would Mel Gibson DO?

there's the original...

and see how nice I am, I didn't even scream REPOST...

2cute

lol i had heard that their problems hadnt come from the DOT but how do i word it. more from greed i guess

Comet

There was a lot of "questionable practices" as well.... some rumors were that there were false paperwork filed, improper tax work.... wierd stuff.... Money makes people do stupid things, and changes attitudes and buisnesses.... evil stuff it is

2cute

yeah i heard a lot about them for some time and heard from more than one person that got kinda screwed but hey w/e. if i had $90k to drop on my dream nissan (my cars big bro) then i probably would have tried to go through them too

Comet

You drive a Spec V right?

I used to be a nissan freak back in the day (like 2 years ago lol) I had an 85' Z31 (300zx) It was turbo, a little over 220 hp. Heavy as all hell. Helped a friend build an S13 w/ a black top.... Nissan's is teh sexy.

2cute

yep have a spec v love it cant seem to make myself get rid of it but i want to get a second car now for the track

Comet

Well if you want to stay nissan, get an ol' Nickle n' dime, stick a 13b in there and let'r rip!

2cute

nope FC here i come. maybe another FB but im leaning more FC at this point alothough i would not mind getting my hands on a 510

Comet

right on.... unfortunatly for me, there isn't much more then basic SOLO2 scca stuff back home, so building a track car is mildy pointless..... so I've got to keep a street base.... so FD fer me.... I started Autocross in my S5 N/A course I had the fancy one, so I got alll the goodies including an LSD, so it helped....

2cute

yeah well i have accepted i will never be street legal in the state of CA so i have given up entirely

Comet

Oh yeah, good point... I don't have to follow emissions or anything, so I can get away with it..... straight pipe baby!

2cute

lol ill do it i dont care anymore. pull me over pop my hood write me my ticket let me go home. chp suck

Comet

Ponch is that you?!

2cute

i have had WAY too many run ins with CHP and the sheriffs department. they all suck they all write too many tickets and they all profile. [/end rant]

Comet

Very true, I got pulled over for having my fog lights on.... Ok, I'm from montana, land of ice snow and giant critters that will kill your car if you can't see them.... I told him this, and he's all, well maybe you shouldn't own a race car.... I wanted to shoot him in the foot... stupid bastard.... I hope his kids get in nothing but trouble and his daughter gets prego at 15.... what a **** smoker...

2cute

i think the best one was in washington state. the cocksnot that pulled me over walks up to the car with his hand on his gun and the first thing he says was keep your hands where i can see them. then he proceeds to ask for my license and such. uh if my hands have to be where you can see them then i cant get my license . mind you i am driving my ex's ek civic at the time and its not like im very big either. w/e in his defense i was doing like 95 in a 55 but thats cuz montana iirc doesnt have a speed limit during the day and i hadnt even realized i had driven through idaho and into washington. either way im not a big fan of law enforcement
