30k s2k wif high ks or 35k wif low ks...HELP URGENT!
hey guys, my 1st post in the forum...oh and HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERY1 !!
neways im lookin to purchase an s2k in the new two week or so. have a few questions. (each highlighted in diff colours)
Qns1.
i got 1 offer for 30gs for a s2k (114000ks) it has aftermarket exhaust,tint windows, struts, shockers.
another off for around 33-34gs for a stock s2k (66000ks)
now my prob is, which 1 should i go for?! im probably lookin for drive the car for a long time, so maybe it would be better off being a car wif low ks. but im also goin to mod it later on, so chosing the 1st option would save me abit of cash...
wat u guys think??
Qns2.
im in VIC and purchasing the car interstate (NSW), do i need to get a RWC from VIC or can a RWC b supplied by a NSW mechanic and then regoed in VIC??
Qns3.
wise for me to purchase the car and drive it down? or have it delivered? and roughly how much would it cost? (nsw to vic)
Qns4.
how much roughly a inspection would cost? i dont wanna go up to syndey to buy a car i dnt want... and wat would be a good company to do it with? (RACV , NRMA etc)
lol dats all the qns i have for now.
cheers guys.

For question 1, id much rather a dead stock car, because there's less chance its been abused (opinion i know, i just don't trust car's with exausts and intakes for some reason). The lower KM is just another benefit. When your spending so much money, imo you'd be stupid not to spend that extra little bit for the more perfected car. Better resale too.
#3. Thats completely up to you, i enquired about having a car shipped from victoria to the gold coast, and if i recal, the quotes were close to $1000. Your proberbly better getting a plane ticket and flying up to inspect it before hand.
#4. Not sure, but you'd be better to inspect it yourself aswell. You can't take other people's opinion on the car. Surely there are s2000's for sale in victoria.

IMO i go for the low k's one since u can always find some cheap part from most of the trader in here New and 2nd hand, i can help u to find the part for ur s2k too

with this one i'm not really sure, but before with my NSX i bought it in NSW but registered in QLD, i dont need any RWC from NSW but i need QLD one before the Queensland transport can issue the rego

its always better if u have someone u can trust in Sydney / NSW that can help u inspect the car, where about in NSW the car located? maybe i can go there and help u out then take it to my mechanic Hannys Performance he licenced for service NSX, i never trust RACV , NRMA etc

I LIVE on the Gold Coast, and I'm going to be flying DOWN to VIC to buy my S2000 / RX7 because QLD doesn't have shit in terms of cars.

and yea i guess i would prefer a stock car being on the safe side of things, plus the stock s2k is more than enuff for me to handle hehe, maybe wear it out abit and upgrade it later the low Ks would mean i could use it for a long time (its gona b a daily driver)
thx for the replys guys!

obviously, hence what i mean, victoria has heaps of cars. Even all the nice prelude's are down there.
Im just slightly below the gold coast, in the northern nsw area. I know the lack of good cars here, its all commodore's and patrols.

yeh best for you is to fly up and inspect the car yourself then either a drive it back to melb or put it on the tasmanian spirit.
