Default Type R shell price....

Guy near me is asking 8k for a complete type r shell. All it needs is motor. Does this price sound about right?

Depends. Clean title? EVERYTHING in tact? If it were a low mileage, clean titled, perfect body, everything included except motor, then it would not be that bad.

if its clean title and clean, or dirty title and superfuckingclean than 8k could be a decent price if you wanna pay the cost to be the boss.

although you could just buy a type r with a motor for 12 or 13k.........

If it was a clean title shell, with EVERYTHING but the powertrain, I'd pay that, or maybe a bit less.

It would be good, because you could take out a loan on the shell, and use the remainder to rebuild it.

Depends who you ask when Brad and I got shells for under 2 grand with 5lug!

Is the interior and a perfect title worth 6grand?

Mine will come with everything but a swap...

HID JDM front
autopower 4 point rollbar
full itr seat/interior
clean title (2nd owner)
01 rims
minimal wear and tear.

pretty much the car minus the swap.

You feel good about tracking a car hard at 1500, but 8k then swap...
(then again, my out look is a little diff)

Answer
It's whatever deal you can get and what you are going to do with the car that makes the price or makes you sleep OK at night

they're out there.. just got to keep your eyes open.. even 4k isn't that bad if it's clean title and has a lot of parts still on it.. it basically comes down to the following anytime buying and rebuilding:

is cost of shell + cost of restoration &lt; cost of buying one of similar condition/mileage whole?

Find me a 97 or 98 shell. Just need the shell itself. Clean title would be a plus, but not needed. Would consider a PY shell too.

LOL... Try 6k for mine... everything there... 10k on motor and only about 2k worth of body damage. Interior was MINT...

Thus the reason I'm biased on damaged/shells.

orrrr by LS, or GSR and swap interior and 5 lug for much less money. Sell motor and put funds towards swap of your choice....and less money for insurance than the R. Just my oppinion....
