Your plate location pictured in your sig is killing the airflow to the cooling system and IC. Either ditch it or put it back in the stock location, it really does make a HUGE difference.

i had installed the plate with rubber,so after 20mph it went up to the top of the spoiler,so no prob with the airflow,but at the end i removed the plate because it is looking better without it...:-)

you don't know much do you... how many other 12 year old FD's do you think there are with that few miles? the blue book is useless for such a specialty market.

^ if you're paying 60k for a 12 year old car i doubt you would need a loan to buy it..

and why is the price so surprising? of cousre its going to cost more, low miles, and its in another country where the price of FD's are really expensive

why would i? i don't need a loans. if someone actually did want to get a loan for a car like this it would probably be a personal loan. as such, it would be a case by case basis, just like it is for other FD's.

I've seen 2 FDs in Australia (Jap imports) with less than 100km (60miles) never road registered 2002 models for $79000 AU so about $56000 US. Still kinda expensive but you are basically buying a brand new car.

I like the handle-thingies on the seat.

It would be nice to have the money to buy a few cars every year, and then sit on them for 25 year or so, and then offer them for sale. Cars that had never been titled and with only a few miles on the odometer.....that would be fun!
