Paino Posted July 5, 2010 Share Posted July 5, 2010 Hi Guys, New to the forum so hello I am looking at buying a 56 350GT which comes with a carbon wrap on the door mirrors and carbon inserts around the vents and gearbox. The dealership says this was a optional extra but i havent come accross this before, are they correct? Also what's everyones general opinion on the going rates the one i am interested in has 42k on the clock, don't want to be paying over the odds. Cheers.

Stew Posted July 5, 2010 Share Posted July 5, 2010 I would call BS on it being an option. Not omething I've ever heard. It will be a kit that the previous keeper fitted. I'd go back and ask them all about the optional extras. costs etc just for sport.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paino Posted July 5, 2010 Author Share Posted July 5, 2010 Cheers for the replies. Thought as much, though according to them it's a £2k extra Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They did not come with a carbon option, i believe there was a fake wood effect, but its rare, price wise you will pay anything from 8K upward depending on age and spec,10K should get you a pretty good one, but the 6 speed manuals with brembos are pretty rare, with the price of fresh imports soring i can see the prices rising. If you want more info pop over here http://www.skylineowners.com/forum/foru ... .php?f=220 we are a pretty friendly bunch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

un1eash Posted July 6, 2010 Share Posted July 6, 2010 Whats the asking price for the one your looking at and we can tell you if its overpriced of not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paino Posted July 6, 2010 Author Share Posted July 6, 2010 They can't give me any proof It was £13250 with GT Pack but without satnav. I have found a 54 GT without satnav with 37,000 miles for £12,200. Are these prices about right? Cheers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Husky Posted July 6, 2010 Share Posted July 6, 2010 one thing you can count on, nissan will give you a good giggle you could get them wrapped by a vinyl wrapping company in carbon dinoc for pennies in comparison. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BulletMagnet Posted July 7, 2010 Share Posted July 7, 2010 Surely if there was such an option, there should be a part number. I mean even some thing like the 380RS Accelerator Pedal has a part number... Name and shame the dealer tbh... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
