I disagree, yes we have dumb people, yes we have alot of dumb people but the average american beats everything.

No, I think I'd have to stick with Sander this time.

Never seen the show, but I do agree Dutch people are MAJOR Dumbasses and suck in a lot of ways.

Ive heard about those, A friend of mine took them before she went to Japan on exchange.

Apparently its good stuff, but you need to hurry because they usually start some time in the summer .

Cheers,

Call Japan and make sure to be top bidder :wink:

mr. X · Post by **mr. X** » Thu Jul 26, 2007 9:46 pm

Wat praten we trouwens Engels, hij kan goed Nederlands :wink:

Isn't it an option to buy one with a low grade exteriour and then repaint it. You'll have a freshly painted car relatively cheap cuz there are a lot less people (specially in Japan) who want, for example, a grade 3.
If you ask nicely there will be a few people that can help you with a top grade painter for a lot cheaper.

I asked but they told me its not possible for that particular auction to be there 'live', for some reason or an other. :-?

The condition grade reflects an overall picture of the car, so its sometimes hard to tell weather its only the outside that is in bad shape.

From experience and what Ive heard from people who buy at auctions its always best to go for a high grade car because otherwise you really cant be sure what you get.

Maybe it is indeed best to just wait till Im actually in Japan and maybe understand and speak a bit of the language to purchase a car.

Anyway, as soon as I get home from work today Ill give them a ring on skype.

Good luck, but if your dreamcar really is an EK9, don't give up! Or else you will be stuck with a car you don't really want.
