I'll start, first the positives. I like the LED lights, some after-market LED lights look crappy with their multiple lights but I prefer those 'one band' types. Wheels aren't original but the fact that your car is dark means that you can get away with black/dark grey alloys and it probably looks better for it. . I couldn't on my Azzuro Argentina car.
Seats look very slippery being very shiny. Body kit is OK, not too keen on the front wing ornaments...sometimes less is more.

All in all it should sell.

How's that for constructive criticism...

I overdo the wax I must admit , but i would rather keep her moist than have it crack, keeping a car looking new as I can is a real thing for me, mods can all be undone too which is important for any car

Good luck with the sale, looks well looked after. I always liked that front grille mod.

Ok,so here's the story it's now sold, first buyer put down a deposit by just looking at it ,then after the purchaser had done the full EFT that same night I had a genuine offer well over my asking price pleading with me to cancel other buyer and wanting to come over and do the deal ASAP ......( I was in a real moral dilemma $$) but after much thought I stuck with original buyer out of respect and doing the right thing in general ( if this person would have stepped up earlier there would have been a bidding war) after this another enquiry of support if it fell through Came in , all this within a week of producing ad but just in the last couple of days things got ridiculous.....So anyway just wanting other 3200gt owners to know that at least in QLD there is a strong market for these cars or money is not the factor it's all about condition, I'm not sure what the moral of the story is but I feel I sold too cheap even though I thought it was fair and the speed of sale and interest certainly surprised me

Nice one mate.. not sure if the same applies to the UK

Your right about one thing though, once all the old high mile scruffy no service history uncared for cars are in the bin, you won't be able to buy a nice example 3200GT under 30K!

I just got extremely lucky IMO but rebook should hopefully see a nice rise from it for other sellers, it took me 2 years to sell my lotus esprit I changed the price all over the place to try and sell it but in the end it had nothing to do with price it was all about finding the right buyer and he paid what I wanted in the end

Would like to know more about the grill mod, detailed how to ? lol.

The grille mod is err.... let’s just say it is a 2nd generation template I made fiddling around to get the look of a granturismo but it ended up looking so nice I never got round to making a permanent more structurally sound solution, I’m embarrassed to even tell u guys how I did it and what it’s made of TBH

There is one you can buy though. I first saw it on a German 4200 Spider, and made enquiries. I'll try and remember who made it.

Thanks for posting. Bit too overdressed with Maserati badges for my liking. I reckon you asked too few $$$$
