Default 2005 350z in Thailand

Guys,
is US$107.250.00 too much to pay for a 2005 stock 350z, just to make it look cool i would need to spend at least another 7k on wheels skirts etc?

Considering that these cars sell no more than $40,000 USD I say that is insanely high. With that said I know that the Asian market is inflated. Also, is there some kind of regulation in Tailand that prevents you from importing a Z?

I was simply stating the MSRP tags, but still $100k is a lot of money for a Z. But again, we are using US market prices to judge his so I don't think we are qualified to advise him.

You guys have to realize Southeast Asian countries has insanely high taxes to prevent people from driving cars. Vietnam has 200% tax on all automobiles. So yeah that price sounds about right

Hmmm. Chain yanker.

Aren't you the guy who posted a pic of yourself with a girl who was half your size? Another gal eating cooter? And another of a tranny with a ball hanging out?

And now suddenly you've never heard of a Corvette (oops, sorry, "corbet") and think they're German?!?
