Default 2007 Nismo With Low Miles Bought At Auction!

Someone in SoCal picked up a 2007 Nismo w/ 14k miles with starting bid of $17983 at a California Tax Board state auction last week. Are you on this forum and how's the car?

I was seriously ready to drive there and bid up to $20k but I found another car before then.

the rims are not the nismo wheels, they are the touring, still not a bad deal for someone though.

^That's what I thought at first but after some research I found they're the same Nismo wheels in OEM silver. In Japan all of them were silver. In the US the early '07s had a silver finish then switched to gunmetal. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

$18k is a good deal, but if it got bid to $20k or more, then it's just a typical deal. When the local dealer was offering a NEW 08' NISMO (3 miles) for $25k, I changed my tune about residual values on them.

08 with few miles for 25k is a steal! i paid 25k flat after taxes for my 08 and it came with 8k miles...i thought it was a deal until i saw what you got offered :/
