If you remember, there was a yellow GT4 on ebay for 4500 a few weeks ago. Well I have been in contact with the guy since then about trying to work out a deal for hte car. I don't have all the money he wnats total, but he would be willing to take my celica and money for the GT4.
What do you guys think? A good deal. He assures me 100% that I can have it street legal and registered b/c of some hookups he has. What would you do? Trade you celica for a GT4? This post has been edited by Jeremy1210: Mar 7, 2005 - 2:20 PM |

God yah. Bring it to Tiffin man. Haha. I dunno, I am not sure how you could be 100% sure it would be legit. There's a guy in New England with a red GT4, maybe you could talk to him.

Depending on the price, shipping, etc, I'd say go for it... but are you going to meet him, see the car, anything, or just hope they trade out ok?
-------------------- If anyone needs interior stuff, etc, I'm parting whats left of my celi out. Just ask.

you do know that shipping/trading/paper work and customs will probably take about 4-6 months to even get the GT4 in the states. so youll be out of a car for a while.

Does he say the car is already registered and street legal and such? I would trust someone saying "My hookups will help you out in making it legal once you buy it."

well I am going to NY to pick up the car. Then I will trade him my car with the cash, once it has cleared customs.
Im still debating this issue. I want the car, but I don't know what to do about this deal. I am a little wary, but I am still interesed in it. |

I wouldn't trust it if it wasn't licensed/registered before you get it. Maybe you could pay him more to get it licensed and registered before you buy the car? |

Hookups in Ohio? How?
My recommendation is to be skeptical. More people have been ripped off by scams where the item is much sought after and the deal seems too good to be true. But, then again, I am a cynic. -------------------- QUOTE(lagos @ Jul 10, 2006 - 1:55 PM) [snapback]454118[/snapback] i know your trying to do the right thing for your motor, but this is one of those times where you should just trust the guys who have had their swaps for a while and have done a ton of research into this. |
