What would be a reasonable price do you think?

I'm no car specialist, but If the paints in good knick and the interior is clean, I'd be pretty happy if I bought it for 22k. Not sure what similar cars are priced at though.

Love the colour!

Yeah that grey is my favorite colour for the libs! Maybe i can get them to come down a bit if i decide to go check it out.

Worth a shot!

Hey

I just bought a manual wagon version in the ACT with 62k on the clock from a dealer for $24,490. Same colour and MY07.

Reckon i left a little money in the deal, but it's a damn nice car and they don't come up often up here!!!

Also had to get out of my old car quickly before rego tyres etc.

Had new (cheap) tyres on it, new battery and log book service done.

One lady owner and full service history from dealer next to work where it was also delivered.

That sat nav in the one you're looking at was an expensive option. Might be fun too.

They go much nicer in S than I, and makes very little difference fuel wise. And the S# is very cool indeed!!!

I had a Grom Audio Bluetooth ipod connection installed and it's great -as is the stereo.

I reckon you'll have no regrets.

Go for it!!!!

Hi,

So I had to put off getting a car for a while, but I'm looking again!

Question: Is the only difference between the 3.0r and the spec B the wheels and suspension? Would I be missing much by going the 3.0r over a spec b?

These two are what I'm considering.

Spec B (same one posted as before)

3.0r

Cream interior is only available in the r not the spec B. 6 Speed manual is the main reason to go the spec B, but if your going auto that doesn't matter.

Also the front bar is different.

I havn't noticed until now, but you can get auto spec b's? i assume you can't get a 3.0r (non spec b) in manual though, right?

[Diabolic]

Yup, only auto for the 3.0r.

Q./ Is this a spec b, or did the later 4GEN 3.0r looks the same? Link

It has the 18" wheels, sport pedals, black leather and it looks like the spec b front bumper.

Unlikely they would go to the trouble of changing the pedals and front bar. Pretty much has to be a Spec.B, provided it's got the bilstein shocks.

I could discretely check under, think they'll raise the price if I mention it?

Check out the terms of the dealer warranty - they commonly require you to get it serviced at same place, tight limits on whats covered (eg Clutch etc NOT covered), frequently not worth much if anything serious happens.
