I'm currently looking at some DC5 Type Rs for sale. I looked at a 2004 model built in July '04, so it was close to probably one of the last ones made for Australia. I know that only the 2 front seats are Recaros, but I noticed that the back seats were a standard black colour with some colour stripes in them. I don't remember seeing that in other Type Rs. Is that common to the 2004 models, or do all Australian DC5 Type Rs have the back seats with that pattern as it seems a bit odd and not in sync with the rest of the car.
Can anyone with a DC5 Type R reply and let me know, and give me any other tips or other things to look out for apart from the usual common sense things.
The dealer wants $37,000 drive away for the 2004 DC5 Type R with 25,000kms because of the rarity. I personally think it's a bit high, and insurance companies are only willing to cover the car for around $32,000 which is their market value.
Thanks
