Max 5k as they are all chav cars even the new shape ones 
If you act quick I will give you 5.2k thou as I am a friendly chap
on a serious note, JDM cars of simular age on here for 15-16k but don't seem to be selling? I would guess yours is 17k+ in comparision?

Am I right in saying a JDM car is more expensive than a spec C to buy new? ......
The spec C is also much lower spec'd with regard to toys. Its well regarded in the performance market but not everyone's cup of tea, hence your market is restricted. Think CSL and the big drops these took
In which case I would say £16-£17K. Maybe start at £17,500 and look to get £17K
Great car and good luck with the sale.

Brand new, a MY06 Spec C commands another £1k over the standard JDM STi.
Whilst the Spec C does drop some of the toys, it gains some far more useful and expensive kit.

Perhaps expensive was the wrong word to use, but this lot ain't cheap.

All things which are important to a very limited market.........much the same as a CSL in comparison to a std M3. Its also import only
Ask 1,000 people if they would buy an import and I bet 800 say no in the first instance. Of the remaining 200 how many want a car with no sound deadening, no boot carpet as std etc etc.....like I say, limited market.
It is however the only scoob I would consider.......but then im not normal

While the Spec C has a more limited market, it is by it's nature more exclusive (as regards to rarity). While this has it's down falls, it also helps the resale value some what.
At the end of the day, it's only worth what someone is willing to pay though.

I agree if someone is looking for that style of car he will probably be willing to pay more ....... however if you NEED to sell and that certain someone isnt looking you will be forced to 'have your pants pulled down' and get what you can.

I thought seriously before buying my JDM Sti vs Spec 'C' and went with the std STi as it has a lot more toys and I had gig concerns over the thinner glass. Since acquiring the car I have had two big hits to my windscreen on the motorway at 80mph ish, one a large stone, the other a duck!! Had it been a Spec 'C' I would now be on my third windscreen that I am sure.

Steve's Spec C has air-con and chewing gum tyres - well it sticks to the road better than any car I've ever been in!!!!
Got all the right toys on it, including DCCD-A, looks the part and has LOTS of admirers
If I wasnt looking at Flats, then I'd be biting his arm off
