£36k before fees though...

If that came to the UK, it would have Rotas and Teins on it quicker than you could say 'ruined'

Probably will end up in Russia, they seem to be snapping up the last waves of clean imports.

:rlol:

Looks nice! for once I even don't mind the pattern on the cloth seats Sort out the rear bumper and sun visor and I'd be a happy bunny with that as it is.

Really nice and clean example.

Its had bodywork done to it by the looks of the pictures of bodyshops in the listing, not for the untouched oem guru out there.

A lot of the Japanese adverts have such pictures, and I'm sure it's basically advertising the services that are available, and nothing to do with specific cars

I'm looking for a dash panel and having no luck. That dash imo really needs changing, certainly for someone who wants originality. Hope it's just wrapped and can be removed.

Secondly, I feel those skirts date the car and much prefer the optional ones, again imo.

Lastly, shouldn't a facelift RZ have an active spoiler as standard? No dash button for it. Maybe if this had EVERY option going but this doesn't have that much more than just the low mileage going for it than mine does. And mine was a good bit less than half that!

That's the rare oem carbon look dash panels, the same as the steering wheel...

I do hope youre joking. Looks awful. Doesn't match the wheel and should at least run around the gear stick/hand brake area. Sticks out like a sore thumb in my eyes

Nope i'm not joking, it also came with the wood grain effect aswell

Optional skirts are bad for the car, they cause rust along the door sills and the bottom edge of the doors.

Much prefer the stock body myself

I wasn't aware that they attributed to rust around those areas

My Supra currently has the optional skirts and spats (it was imported with them on) but I have just got hold of some original skirts and hockey sticks as I prefer this look myself too

Yeah, unfortunately they rub through the paint over time, down to the metal.

You learn something new every day on here !Prefer that to standard dash .

Oh, hopefully I don't have any nasty surprises when I remove mine

Forgive my stupidity, but how exactly does plastic/fibreglass rust?

I think they are saying the plastic skirt eventually rubs the paint off of the underside of the steel door and top side ie underneath the plastic of the sideskirt of the steel sill. In my experience this is very much slight cosmetic rusting, not ideal but we are not talking sill/doors holes resulting from this!

Exactly But left untreated it would obviously eventually cause further damage, first thing i'd do if I bought a car with oem skirts is remove them and check for any damage.

Forgive the next stupid question then. If the plastic skirt is rubbing the paint off the metal, that means the skirt is moving? So how does the skirt move when it has like 20 fixings?

Vibration. No matter how many screws it has, it will still vibrate. I think its more because its a water trap than anything else

It has fixings underneath, but the top where it meets the sill is just held on with double sided foam tape from the factory, sometimes with some silicone sealant too. As Swampy said, vibration will do some of it, using the doors, and maybe the skirts slightly change shape with age?
