CJ Posted June 3, 2006 Author Share Posted June 3, 2006 I was just thinking. What if it was a car made in 1997 and first registered in 1998. Is that a possibility? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CJ Posted June 3, 2006 Author Share Posted June 3, 2006 I was thinking more along the lines of the car was made in 97 and first registered in Japan in 98 and therefore could possibly be a non VVTi. The problem I have is that I haven't seen the car yet and dont want to alert the seller to the possibility that it is worth more Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CJ Posted June 3, 2006 Author Share Posted June 3, 2006 As an aside, what are they fetching these days? '98 VVti 6 speed with 70k miles. Looks in good condition (not perfect but good) and is white in colour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
