Administrators gav240z Posted October 30, 2012 Author Administrators Posted October 30, 2012 Len has informed me that he has now lowered the price of the car to $45,000, the trailer is now $12,000 and not included in the sale. The trailer is custom built for the Z so he doesn't think it would fit other vehicles. So if someone want a trailer or a Z get in contact with Len. Quote
sco_aus Posted October 30, 2012 Posted October 30, 2012 Group buy? Lol. Wish I had that sort of coin laying around, good luck to him, it's worth the money. Quote
Riceburner Posted October 31, 2012 Posted October 31, 2012 Having seen this up close and getting the rundown on it from Len a few years ago, I can say it's worth every cent! It's immaculate and has had the TLC of a true expert, enthusiast, genius. Best of luck with the sale Len. Quote
doudous Posted October 31, 2012 Posted October 31, 2012 It doesn't seem to have a full roll cage??? Isn't a proper cage essential for Targa? Quote
