Reply With QuoteSo move to America? Sell it and get a Japanese car?
I vote for the latter, you get some nice Japanese cars there that we don't get here (Skyline, JDM Engines)
Some of you guys might remember me having a small car crash which cost over $2000 cause the parts are rare.
Well this will make you laugh for sure
My car is down at for getting serviced and I asked them to check out this squeek on the passenger side window when it finishes sliding all the way up.
Well he said this cable that pushes the window up and down had worn and will be going out sometime soon
Now guess how much this cable cost?
$900
That's just to damn funny
The funnier part is that my car is a Ford Probe GT and in USA there common but down here only 2000 were released and only GT models were released here.
$900 for a cable i just find it so funny :P this car has cost me quite a bit of money but i still love it
Just thought id post it :P

Can't you order the part for the US and have it shipped to you. I'm pretty sure the shipping charge is not going to be no where near $900.

being from america, hearing a ford probe called a rare sports car makes me giggle.
BTW, I have never seen a ford probe that HAS NOT been in an accident. I dunno if its a design thing or the type of drivers that buy them, but its something I noticed.

I'm not surprised it cost that much
left rear light cost $990 right side cost $1100 and middle reflector cost $700
and the problem is the lights for my car are ONLY avalable in australia the USA guys wish they could get the lights so im glad my small accident a while ago didn't get them wrecked

Difference is, the skyline is incredibly tunable, the Probe is not.
