I double checked the asking price and yes it is right ~$25K for the puchase price.
~$1300 to organise/prepare car for shipping (FOB). ~$1000 agents fee ~$1500 shipping and then Customs and taxes ~$4000. So, around $33K Landed.

The listing has a strange way of showing price.....

Here are some others for sale.... but are 1989 models.

I must say, that's a low price to pay for such a unique car. :shock:

The real value is certainly there for any car investor looking for a long term appreciating asset.

If I was in a financial position to take it, I wouldn't hesitate. The 2L Widebody alone in that condition would be worth $15K, now Jackie Chan's special HKS modded version for only double the price is quite possibly a steal.

I would be very surprised if its not sold already, or canvassing private bids over the asking price.

I remember bidding on a rare Starion 4WD booklet on ebay.co.uk and put in a ridiculous high max bid, just to be sure I would get it, but to my surprise, a Japanese bidder had no problem trumping it the last moment with a single bid, which I can only assume was even more ridiculous than my own. :(

Definitely two different cars. The last thing you would want to do is remodify an already modified and one-off collectors car.
