He is not looking to buy, he has not converted a LHD Bugeye to RHD, it came like that as it is JDM. This also means it would have a JDM motor. He is asking what we think he could sell the car for in the US.

My first problem is that you decided to insult me about not reading the post when, in fact you clearly had it wrong as well, so be careful that you understand before insulting others. After that I decided I felt like rattling your cage a little.

My logic is that you shouldn't pay more for a GT3 that was built for the German market than you would the same car built for the American market. Not that all cars should cost the same

you can get a 2001-2004 RHD STI [which is a bugeye here in the USA] for $21,000-$30,000USD. so i doubt anyone would pay the same price for a regular WRX.

2002 was the last Bugeye in the international market, Dez.

Jeez, i didn't know replying in a grammatically correct, very professional and respectful way could make someone so angry. The only strong word I put in any of my posts was "irrelevant" which in my dictionary isn't all that harsh of a word, its simply the truth. I did not "insult" you so don't reply in a childish way...that is all.

OP - I would list the car at 25k and slowly work down until an amount you don't feel robbed at. I would be seriously amazed if you couldn't get 15k for it though. People are paying 10-11k for 100k mile bugeyes here in Colorado when they blue book for thousands under that. They are also paying 20k for STI's that KBB at 14k. The market here is ridiculous and proof that KBB isn't what a car will sell for, its what insurance will cover.

I would consider this insulting when you had also misread what the OP was saying

"irrelevant" didn't insult me at all, in fact I admitted I made a mistake in a later post. There is nothing "childish" about my comment to you, it was simply the truth.
But I digress, it doesn't matter and I'm not interested in arguing with you so I'll just drop it

That's another thing mileage on my scooby isn't bad at all I believe it's around 40k kilometers when you convert that it's somewhere around 25k miles

So much hostility lol

That comment came after your post about me wanting to buy the car, which only an idiot wouldn't see how you were saying that. And no, that was not "simply the truth" I am not looking to buy the car, Im looking to clear up confusion so the OP can get an answer. And the answer is not 7-8k, this car will go for much more (probably twice) that.

WOW! Ok, $20k isn't out of the question

It's all good clean fun. Sorry it's in the middle of your thread. Good luck selling the car, if you choose too. With the right buyer you'll get your price, as long as you have the patience to wait it out.
