Default scooby prices!

https://www.pistonheads.com/classifi...e-ra-r/7426349


I know prices are on the up for the more desirable and rarer models and given the opportunity I wouldn't turn down ownership of a RA-R but for 45k! It wasn't so long ago Hurst had a RA on 67k miles for sale in the region of 23k.

Is the low mileage worth nearly double the price or is the market out of control?

With certain known breaker's frequently pulling apart sti 's hopefully their rarity will one day push up their value ?

Now where did I put my crystal ball?

How about a T-25 with twice the mileage for half the price?

Agreed, it is crazy but having said that, I've put almost the asking price for that RA-R into my car over the years.

Crazy money but the way things are at the moment, it's probably in keeping with the market.

Double the mileage, makes all the difference

They sold 2 for 19-20k before Christmas with higher mileage

Absolutely. Had these lights on my old one but regardless of if you like them or not, they don't belong on a rare car.

How can they not belong if they are the standard lights

To be fair the 100k one was one of the cleanest JDM scoobs I've ever seen, the underneath was mint

I meant the aftermarket lights don't belong on a rare car and the standard ones should be on there

It was in fairness. You'd never know it had covered that much ground going by its condition.
