Discussion before purchase

I have the money to get me a Type R now, which I've always wanted.
At the moment it's very hard on deciding price.
Everything else should be okay as I'm after a 100% stock Type R.
I seen a few 2000 models with around 60,000-80,000k's for $24g other one was $25,300.
The price looks about right? am I correct.

Also I saw a White 1999 model in the trading post quoting that it was a rare find, is it really that rare to get a white one with red recaro's and the white rims? well it was going for $24,990.
But to bad it was sold so quickly before I could even take a test drive or look.

But at the moment I have a friend of a friend selling his Type R it's Yellow, though his unsure of the model but its done about 108,000k's and his asking price is $22,000
Is that a good price with that many k's? excluding whatever condition it's in for now.

I am sure that this topic has been covered a million times.
The K's aren't the most important factor. Get it checked out by a mechanic who knows a bit about the Type R's. SOunds like a good price, as you won't have to change a timing belt for awhile ($$$$).

kms are not THAT important, but they are usually a deciding factor on how much the car will sell for. keep that in mind.

Is there a reason why theres so much black type R's for sale?

cos black represents strength hehehe

you can buy my spoon dc2r for 28.5K

theres a jdm spec dc2r on sale on carsales...for 35k... o_O might be able to negotiate...

35k!!! better be negotiable...

lol...but guess wat...its a 1998 model i think...or 99...and has only 38ks on it... o_O pretty good!!! with some mods...not too bad i think...but there seems to be a scratch of come sort on the bonnet...

but 35k... can get a second hand dc5r for that $

i personally prefer dc2r...espacially jdm one...but its my personal choice...

I probably get this 2001 model dc2r for $25-26g done 70,000k black and has red recaro's I negotiated from the price of $28g.

have u done the inspection yet?? and the car in good condition?? REVS check??

I'm going this week.
If i'm happy who should I get to check the car? I heard NRMA don't know shit about sports cars.

go with stateroads...they check my car and yeah...not too bad...but their standards might be different from yours when they say the car is in excellent condition...and remember...check the log book...
