Default mugens for $4,000 bucks

i hope this makes some people laugh i sure did. i had to take a double take on the price...


http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...43954


this guy is totally serious with this amount... the reserve is set at $4,000.00

i emailed him and this is what he said..

"The guy I am listing these for is in the custom car business.He contacted
King Mtr. Sport in Wisconsin, who by the way handles all imported mugen
wheels from Japan. All mugen wheels shipped from Japan go direct only
through King Mtr. You can't buy them direct from Japan. He say's these
wheels are worth whatever price you want to charge. These are first
generation wheels that came out about 10 years ago on the civic. They said
the rare ones are the 14" because you can't find them anywhere. The only way
they could have come to the U.S. was if somebody from Japan either had their
car shipped over when they came to the U.S. or brought these wheels with
them when they came. Mare racing say's the same thing. Their have been
several articles in hot rod magazine about thes wheels and their rarity.
Believe me there are some people out there that know what these wheels are.
Just thought I would give you more info. Thanks."

mugen. they'd be cheap if it weren't for all the jdm fanatics who think if it says mugen or spoon on it, that it has to cost 3 times as much.


idiots.

$4500 for a set of ugly 14" wheels... don't they weigh like 10lbs too? heavy and ugly.

I think that the wheels are tight, but worth no more than $100-$300. 4K is NUCKIN FUTS!
