I'm thinking about buying this R32 what do you guys think?

I'm bored without a toy so I am looking at my next ride. What do you think of this car?

I think its pretty damn sweet... but what are you going to use it for? Its a bit extensive for a DD, and a bit too pretty for an autocross car(IMO)...

 

funny you should say that because I was thinking of using it for both

 

i want the seats

 

Yeah, thats a lot of cheddar... but to think what all those mods cost him... That Stage whatever performance upgrade is crazy $$$. Those R32's (even 04's) hold their value really well, I'd bet that same R32 with no mods would get close to that amount.

 

exactly, look at some of the other R32's that are stock ormild. Most are in the mid 20's

 

05 STi.

 

Seriously, STi bitches.

 

that is sick vdub..but for that kinda money id be in a c5 z06

 

SERIOUSLY! A C5 or C6 Corvette would be better than anything mentioned in this thread so far.

 

you need thiiiiiis

 

I've been there done that with Subarus. I'd consider an Evo also. Since we already have one two-seater I need something somewhat practicle. Though a Z06 would be tons of fun.

 

NICE! I love those. I was going to get an R when I bought my STi, but they were way too expensive at the time. So, I was looking at another 20th anniv., but only wanted a jazz blue and couldn't find one anywhere. I had an imola yellow one back in '03 and LOVED it, but quit my job and needed to cut my expenses. I really regret selling it... it was a blast to drive. And so much room with the seats down!

But really my deciding factor was the repair costs and the price of mods. I thought about it again when I was shopping for the forester, but VW with no warranty is a BAD idea for me. I figure I'll buy one when I get a real job and don't have to worry about money as much.

 

if i had the funds id hop all over that, or id tke that cash and build an all motor toda s2000 with ITB's....that would be the bees knees. but for a car thats already to go id b all about it.

 

^^^^^ bees knees for sure.... i love an s2k with itb's

 

or Evo9

 

Only the 04's hold their value, alot of 08's are selling for only a little more than a low millage 04's... but in general, .:R32's were on the edmunds list of top 10 best resale value cars...

Go for it, you will love the fit and finish of the interior. I remember looking at that car after i had just bought mine... its a good deal for whats installed, but I personaly wouldnt buy a car that modded... but thats just me. Other than that I love it and I think you would too.
