Default Import car values

Any one know of a website that functions like Redbook for import cars?

I have an idea of the price I should be paying from looking in the classifieds and dealer site, but was hoping to confirm with a Redbook like service.

Import cars are hard work I think. Don't bother going to dealers either as they will kick it in the guts.

I think all you do is use various sites like carsales/uniquecarsales etc and get an idea that way.

Good luck.

Check out importers websites. Prestige Motorsport do a hell of a lot of imports and keep a good history of previously imported cars and prices.

http://www.j-spec.com.au/ can give you a pretty good idea of what imports are selling for.

Remember to check what grade condition it is when looking at the prices.

Glass's Guide has an import section - not a huge range tho. I can check that if you want to pm the details.
