Gary Blogg at Granville has had a black 97 GPvR in stock for a while. Bit pricey though at ~$30K with 70K klms on it?

[edit] Just seen same car "reduced to sell" at $26,888 on Autotrader site...at least I'm not the only one who thought it was pricey

stick with GPX..why u want to change GPvR?
GPvR manufactured between 97-99,
during 97-00 in japan, sports car was not popular..not many FTO sold during that period..
very hard to find one...

do i need a decryption key for that? is it still uncool to spell correctly these days?

i admit i used to type like that on WaReZ BBS's when i was 15, and used to wonder why someone got pissed off for me saying skool instead of school!

dannyboyau posted up this site in an existing thread, they sell the gpvr boot spoiler
http://www.upauto.co.uk/newmain.htm

apparently they are out of stock from what i read in that thread

it helps to perform a search on the forums sometimes.

Reason why you are copping so much flack over it, is because it's hard to read.

There's no structure to it . . . even if I started capitialising every last letter in my sentences, there's a structure so its relatively easy to follow.

It's just a strain on the eyes trying to read text like that as we are not used to it. But eh, honestly, I don't really mind if you want to type like that or not. If my eyes get too sore, I just won't read it =P

Anyway, there are only a few differences between a GPX and a GPvR. The main performance ones are the factory LSD and the lighter weight. Main comestic difference is the HID lights and the kit.

Personally, I don't know where to find another GPvR, I happened upon my one by luck when they were still producing them. But personally, unless you really really want a GPvR, I'd advise against getting one if you already have a GPX . . . not only will you get slogged by stamp duty again, the money that you spend getting a GPvR can mod a GPX well beyond a stock GPvR levels. *shrugs*

Hey, wasn't a blue GPvR in VIC with the plates GPR1 or something like that for sale a few months back??? I can't remember =)

SoRRy fOr tHE cApZ LoK JokEZ.. I WiLL sTop nOW.!

(Really.. the was the last one... i was only joking around..)

as for the swapping a GPX For a GP-R i dont really see much of an advantage.. apart from the look.. which could be replicated easily..

i would stick with a gpx..

GPXXX · Post by **GPXXX** » Sat Jun 07, 2003 8:33 am

i can hardly justify buying a GPvR for the extra costs because all you're really getting in return is an LSD, HID lights and less weight (no climate control btw). You might as well get the GPX and spend about $1500 for the version R front bumper and rear wing to make it look like one...

...unless authenticity and rarity is your game that is.

if you insist, hope on to J-Spec.com.au - they have online auction listings updated daily and there are a few occassions when I've seen GPvRs pop up once or twice a week...

isn't HID also option for GPX? and bigger spoiler?
my gpx is face-lifted..
it has FACTORY HID and updated spoiler..
but,LSD isn't

D-TRAIN · Post by **D-TRAIN** » Sun Jun 08, 2003 2:14 pm

Yeah mine's the same as well. Gotta love those HIDs.

If only it had the LSD......got an approximated quote on an aftermarket one which was about $2000 (excluding labour costs). Not sure if the costs would justify the means!!
