So tempted, but I can't afford ... the divorce :D

So how much is 120 million yen? Is that like 1.2 million dollars?? I dunno, but it sounds like a lot!

Love the look, as I have always liked the early luce brood.
Cheers, Matt.

About AU$20-22k landed and registered here...go nuts Matt! I know Clayton wants at least $12k for the eBay car.

Seriously? Again? That Luce has been on eBay atleast three times now in the last 12 months.

Same seller.

Same pictures.

Same spiel.

Probably same reserve (around $4500).

It's a great looking and unique car but parts and interest is scarce.... I think Dave even argued with a 'rotarhead' about the front wheel driveness of them and how rare they are. For the punters it IS front wheel drive and as the seller says, it IS rare... just not desirable.

Good luck to him, I'd buy it in a heart beat if I wasn't already going through a divorce!

Cheers,

Great looking and rare, but maybe another that is sitting on something and hopes to make a profit, rather than let an enthusiast buy it.
