ing-schu@online.no Posted November 4, 2008 Report Share Posted November 4, 2008 You'd better ask Camel. He has one. Personally I'd rather buy a mid nineties MX5 and a bolt on $3000 SC kit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mohamedeladawy@hotmail.com Posted November 5, 2008 Report Share Posted November 5, 2008 look for any oil residue in and around the engine bay. also, check the suspension, alignment. and rev it till redline when driving. and see if tehre is any leaks afterwards. keep an eye out on water temperature. and any idle problems. if there is any kinda idle leak, DO NOT BUY IT! ur better off finding another one. other than that...good luck!

ing-schu@online.no Posted November 11, 2008 Report Share Posted November 11, 2008 Shipping in a separate container is probably in the region of $1200- 1500. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cuto Posted November 11, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 11, 2008 Shipping in a separate container is probably in the region of $1200- 1500. Yeap..but in Portugal we can't afford to import used cars... Taxes are brutal..and even, let's look what i would have to pay if i'd buy a Xedos 9 from anywhere within European Union: Over 4.000 Euros for taxes alone, no matter the cost of the car. From USA, i would have to pay that, plus VAT, plus 21% (minimum( Customs taxes...thats why i don't have a mustang ....yet! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ing-schu@online.no Posted November 13, 2008 Report Share Posted November 13, 2008 Good answer. Taxes; taking in a decent Miller Cycle like yours would run me like 15000 Euros in taxes and VAT if waiting till next year, and this includes a 63% discount for the cars age. Picking a 15 year old car would help, then you're granted a 80% discount. Our best bet is to take in a classic, over 30 years old. Then we only pay VAT for the purchase price and some other minor additions. Like, say a 69 Mustang Fastback Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
