FoxyRoadster Posted November 16, 2009 Report Share Posted November 16, 2009 lot of dattos now lately being a bit pricey... theres a 25k roadster listed on craigslist.. lol I don't mind the value bump but some of these people are overkill. Quote Link to comment
denveratsun Posted November 16, 2009 Report Share Posted November 16, 2009 I voted "crack pipe" on this one...way too much money...way too much "crack":lol: Quote Link to comment
hang_510 Posted November 16, 2009 Report Share Posted November 16, 2009 the best crack is right here in socal, inland empire (or was that twEEkers :confused: ) and he is smoking it alright. (seller is a nice guy BTW) dont think it even reached 10K when it was ebay, those 3 or 4 times... Quote Link to comment
datzenmike Posted November 16, 2009 Report Share Posted November 16, 2009 Nice car too bad it's owner is trippin. If two door, original interior and those rims thrown away it would be worth still less than 10,000. This is just ridiculous hype to get it 'out there'. Some dick with money will by it for his kid to drift with. Bye bye. Quote Link to comment

yellowdatsun Posted November 17, 2009 Report Share Posted November 17, 2009 510's that are done *really* well, have sold in the 12-20k range for the past few years. Without seeing this car in person it's hard to say. That engine bay is probably the cleanest one I have ever seen, judging by the picture. I'd say it's worth a minimum of $12k Quote Link to comment
ichorid Posted November 17, 2009 Report Share Posted November 17, 2009 its got felt flames in it if I recall. there were some (easy to throw stones from the internet comment ahead) tacky interior calls made IMO, and the asking price is ridiculous. If this were a for sale thread for the car Id keep it to myself, but since we are on the subject. what 8k tops for that car? its clean but it ain't winning any best in show in california. unless it already has, and Id love to see what show it was. not like I have something better, just throwing my unwanted 2c at the internet.

Jesse C. Posted November 17, 2009 Report Share Posted November 17, 2009 I saw the car in person at the Nick's Burgers gathering and it does have a ton done on it, but, why a 4 door? Nothing against 4 doors, but, why? :blink: And honestly, most of the work is very "Mini Truckin'" like. Not my cup of tea, or coffee, or milk, or.......:rolleyes: Quote Link to comment
FujiyamaMama Posted November 17, 2009 Report Share Posted November 17, 2009 I like it. I don't have 19k though... and I don't think I'll ever have that for a car that isnt a mustang lol I prefer to have all the fun, you appreciate it more that way! Quote Link to comment

Cuts metal like mad Posted November 17, 2009 Report Share Posted November 17, 2009 Stock seats reupholstered, nicely but still doesn't really match the theme. Ruined the dash with off the shelf bling gauges. Stock VG blah. FWD offset wheels with spacers, ick. Clear markers do nothing for me. Stock (looks like stock) mirrors in the wrong place. Flamed door panels? Really? Am I nit-picking? Hell yeah! Its $19grand, better nitpick the fuck out of it. Quote Link to comment

sick620 Posted November 17, 2009 Report Share Posted November 17, 2009 wow thats sweet but the price isnt. there is no way he put that much money into it. Quote Link to comment
kmc63 Posted November 17, 2009 Report Share Posted November 17, 2009 Well im with surf rar on this one. Yes it is nice and nicely done,but why a four door. I paid quite a bit for my 510,but I wanted a nice one that had'nt been butchered up. I dont have anywhere that kind of money into mine but I can see how he would,what do you suppose it costs to have a vg30e re-built from the factory(remaufactured) plus any mods?:D Quote Link to comment
HRH Posted November 18, 2009 Report Share Posted November 18, 2009 Why a four door? Because four doors are the bomb, that's why!! Stiffer chassis due to the rear doors, better access for chicks and dogs in the back! Did I mention four doors just rule and there's a reason the rally cars were always four door 510s? :D Quote Link to comment
hang_510 Posted November 18, 2009 Report Share Posted November 18, 2009 Did I mention four doors just rule wagons have 5 doors :fu: Quote Link to comment
