How do you go about declaring that lot to the insurance company ?
Getting a quote would take a week.

It would be no more expensive to run than any other expensive performance car, probably less than a second-hand Ferrari TBH.
It would be interesting to see what sort of reliability could be had from something like this vs the amounts involved. I have always laughed at people who have to spend

Most people with cars like this use an agreed value policy, as common on classic cars.

I think it would have been easier to list mod's that aren't on the car. A very impression list.

As much as I lvoe the R34 Skyline, I think 68k is too much money. I don't doubt all the extra mods warrnty this price, but when you get into the money, your looking at some serious cars.

Of course if anyone would like to give me 68k, I'll happily buy it and take you out for a spin in it

[QUOTE=Neil.H,Jul 14 2006, 12:59 PM] You think that's a lot of money? That Top Secret complete engine alone costs $42,000. Plus shipping from Japan, plus fitting. That Nismo CF bonnet is

Nope. NSX or a 2-year old F360.

Or an S2000 and a Lotus Exige.
