Specifically this one:

Opinions?

on the understanding that they have the original engine cover (no mock-Toms airscoops please) and wheels hehe

Actually the wheels might look better in the flesh, but from the photos im unconvinced. Do you think those wheels would be worth anything on ebay? Otherwise I will swap the originals back on and leave them.

Also, does anyone know this car?

yeah they are famously too loud for..err...the Nurburgring hehe

Personally i would put some gunmetal R32 Skyline GTR look-a-like wheels on it. Or a set of Mk5 alloys powdercoated grey.

Well we couldnt agree a price, obviously my cash isnt good enough smile

it was a nice car, but a few questions like "any service receipts since its been in the UK? Cambelt been done?" etc were met with stony silence. Also, that nur-spec exhaust is retardedly loud. It sounds like open headers.
