130,000km on the clock, its no spring chicken!

Looks well looked after, but that doesn't means its worth double the market price

Why do people think that once you add chromes and a body kit you can upsize the value of the car????

For that sort of money you can buy an Evo 4 (or similar) with similar kays and you get 10 times the fun out of it as well...

I remember when i sold my last BZG about 2 years ago I only just managed to get over 8K for it and that had a full body kit on it, hks exhaust, 17s etc etc... Just cause it has a 6 speed gear box and extra exterior features means jack...

Haha I should show him this thread LOL

I laughed at the extra compressor too, apparently that extra compressor dropped his rpm by 200 or so and so apparenlty it saves him gas LOL.

The dude at beyond performance did his exhaust and he laughed at that air compressor too, told him to take it off, but he bought it from big boys toys or autosalon 2 years ago. -_-

Yea thats a nice looking example, identical bodykit to my last one, so I do have a soft spot for it. But yes as everyone has alluded to, way overpriced, mine had similar kms and was absolutly mint inside and out but fetched less than this and was 2 years ago!

Yes, by all means show him the thread, teach him the definition of the term "rice", and advise him that bolt-on mods do NOT increase the value of the car. Its still a 10 year old 1.6 litre front wheel drive.

Air compressor :roll:
