That 300% goes to duty, road tax, document (a lot), and profit margin. The 2 enzo's own by 1 person. 1 for himself and the other for sale.
Most car prices here are between 200-300% more than US price. Duty is very high ..
:cry: bad

so you could bought an enzo for this price which you bought cs

Not really ... I paid USD $ 404,500 only ... it was a good deal after a loooonnggg negotiation ... .. at first they asked for $ 483,500.
For your info the new WRX (non STI) price is USD $ 53,500 .. :shock:
Lucky me when I bought new my WRX was bit more then USD $ 40,000.

quite a shrewd negociator! good work, particularly on the CS Rex... thats an amazing price reduction... where they wanted nearly 20% more on the CS, and over 30% more on the WRX :shock:

Oppps ... sorry if I made you misunderstood about the WRX price. I meant when I bought my WRX at year 2003 .. I only paid USD $ 40,000 plus. The year 2005 brand new WRX is offering at USD $ 53,500.

When I bought mine, I only be able to bargain about USD $ 2000 less because that car was the only brand new blue metalic stock left in this country and that showroom was 600+ miles from where I live... :x

But the CS deal was good..

Guys .... You'll be happy. I just finished uploaded 3 more new Video SHOT ... Smile .. hope ya'll enjoy it.


CS accelerating in 1st-3rd gear on the road:
http://www.pistonheads.tv/clip642
http://www.pistonheadstv.com/videos/642.wmv

Note: Better shot then previous video shot but my friend's hand still shaken ... Sad

---------------------------------------------------------------------- ---

CS Speedo SHot:
http://www.fast-drive.org/1/p/car-vi...?view.618.0.25
(Copy this link but delete the (-) between Fast Drive words, if I type the link without "-" between Fast Drive words, the page just went blank. I don't understand why).

Note:
- Quarter tank pump gas with NOS fuel additive
- Temp 90-91F
- Full Weight + me + Laptop

---------------------------------------------------------------------

WRX Speedo Shot:
http://www.fast-drive.org/1/p/car-vi...?view.616.0.25
(Copy this link but delete the (-) between Fast Drive words

alternative:
http://www.pistonheads.tv/clip640
http://www.pistonheadstv.com/videos/640.wmv

Note for WRX speedo shot:
- I shift slow or relax because I was datalogging at that time
- My WRX Stock speedo shows slower indicated speed then it suppose to be because of:
1. I switch from 5 speed gearbox with 4.44 final gear to 6 speed STI JDM gearbox with 3.9 final gear (lower gear).
2. My current tyres diameter is 1 cm higher (225/40/18 then stock tyres (215/45/17)

- Full tank pump gas
- Temp 91F
- AC on
- Full weight + me + laptop + Junk

If you have time please give your comment. Thanks

OMG, thats simply insane accelleration in the 'rex, Rex :shock: the sound is amazing... unfortunately, it is bested.... by the video of the 360 CS!

thanks a whole lot!!!!!
you are pushing damn near 8000 rpm in the wrx, damn, and its still pulling hard. i could hardly believe how hard the WRX was pulling in 6th at 3500 rpm right through lift off. you've definately got an amazing pair of machines... i know we've said it before... but still. they are AWSOME (any further updates to the wrx mod wise?)

Thanks nthfinity, I am glad that you enjoy the clips.

Actually I was revving to about 8500rpm several times in that video shot which is my engine rpm limit ..

All the WRX sound that you hear is the sound of my Ext Wastegate with dump pipe to atmos ... I can't hear my aftermarket exhaust sound (with straight pipe (no cat)) when the wastegate open up ...

My WRX Stock speedo shows slower indicated speed then it suppose to be because of:
- I switch from 5 speed gearbox with 4.44 final gear to 6 speed STI JDM gearbox with 3.9 final gear (lower gear).
- My current tyres diameter is 1 cm higher (225/40/18) then stock tyres (215/45/17)

When I took the shot, I was still using my stock clutch and slipping a bit. Now I already install Exedy Twin Plate + Lighter Flywheel.
Will run and tune with Aquamist Water Injection next month.

Enjoy and PLAY IT LOUD ...
