To send Shin a PM, go to the first post on this thread, click on his name on the left hand side of the screen, and choose the second option down.

Awesome car, and I can agree with people who said that buying it and no driving it would be crazy. But it's clear the current owner saw it as an investment more than anything else.


Am I the only one who thinks this is a car that, because it hasn't been driven and is in "as new" condition, it would be better off being purchased by someone who could put it in a motoring museum or something similar...?

At over J120k plus costs it's been a good investment.

Fantastic care none the less.

The value will only continue to rise.

I see a forseeable future where Japanese High Performance Cars will go up in extreme value due to Gas Prices and such. Sort of like a futuristic view of the current Muscle Car Value trend.

For now it will go up slowly, but when that point in time comes it will skyrocket in value.

Oh..my.

Speechless really.

What comes to the Keira Knightley remark.. the Z-TUNE is comparable to Keira Knightley & Natalie Portman mixed together.

Exactly, even the 400R's experienced depreciation.
I know the Z-Tune is rare but at 120k + shipping + costs it's not worth it to me.

In a half a day I could run farther then you've driven your car.

I'd like to know how 40 something KM's on an engine can be qualified as driving miles.

I think it's absolute bollocks to not flog the hell out of a Z-Tune. Don't modify it, lower it, put ice in it, or whatever. Just flog the living shit out of the car.

Just my two cents.
