Help me Buy an "R"
Today I went to work (started 4 days ago), and while I leaving, I saw my co-worker around his mid 40's or 50's driving a Stock Black Type-R. Then it hit me a guy in his mid 40's, And most elders might want to move onto a bigger car instead of driving stick. Possibly he might sell it for cheap? $12,000 - $14,000?
Hoping he isnt on HT...
Can you guys give me any tips of asking him nicely if hes willing to sell his car? Without making it obvious that I really want this car, so he dosen't raise the price on purpose.... My friends think I could possibly get the car for 13,000... If I know how to talk to him...
Thank,
Brian

GTFO!!!!!j/k
Elders like to go fast too. You're making too many assumptions young buck. Type R's don't fall into people's hands.
Good luck finding one though. You may have to wait a while for one to fall into that budget.

Re: Help me Buy a "R" (Utilitarian)
find out more info on the car, year, mileage, condition, title status
if its a average mileage car in good condition with a clean title, he wont sell it for 13,000 more like 17,000 and up

I got my 97 CW ITR off a 60 something year old who sold it to make room for his s/c NSX... now he is looking to get another ITR.

Re: Help me Buy a "R" (paul_type_r)
My old boss was in his late 50's had a ford SHO thing, was pretty quick. But then he went and got a fully tuned 300Z. I saw all the paperwork for the car and this thing was amazing!
He loved having all that power under his old foot!
So not all elders want some normal grandpa car
