G35 to GTR conversion
#76
I'll snap a picture of it this weekend when I go to pick up factory ATF/power steering fluids.
I think it was all of the different options it had on it, plus an insane markup. I know of ford dealers right now who have a $28k markup on the GT350. Those who want the latest/greatest are gonna pay through the nose for it. Or they just don't care about the price because they have so much money...

Internet price is only $104,977! Buy it online and save yourself $195,033 over the in-person price!

hey guys, still busy 3d modeling. but id like to get a consensus on something. ive been considering keeping the g35 taillights instead of the gtr ones. Doing that would keep this car more genuine than a knockoff gtr and I think that would appeal to more people and give it more credibility. The rear bumper would still be designed different and the rear quarter panels will still be gtr.

I think this is right.
I was recently at the dealership so I could pick up some Nissan ATF ($19.99/quart, thieves). The White GTR is sold. Managed to track down the salesperson that sold the car about 4 weeks ago. He wouldn't let me take any pictures of the paperwork. He was willing to talk to me about the car, however. They had it inventoried for $187,000. I'm not sure what made the price jump from the msrp of $149kish to the $187k, the options list was long and the abbreviations was hard to read. I recall seeing "Titex" for something like $14,000+tax. Don't know what that was but it caught my eye as it was one of the most expensive options. They had it on the floor for $287,000 and admitted it was a $100,000 markup. They ended up selling it for $193,000. I don't know if that included taxes and fees or if that was on top, he wouldn't tell me. If it didn't, that's nearly $16k in just sales tax alone![Eek3](https://g35driver.com/forums/images/smilies/eek3.gif)
They said they had another one coming before summer. So I'm curious to see what they do with that one. I'll keep an eye out for it and see what they put it on the floor for.

If he has free time, the monetary cost to fabricate this whole thing won't be much at all. If he builds a one-off for himself, probably the price of the donor car plus maybe a couple of thousand $ in parts including tires/rims, and the rest would be mostly fab work and the cost of raw materials to support that effort. Certainly not $64K total cost to him.
