A full alpha9 runs about 23k plus labor. The other mods such as wheels and fenders are pricey, but don't make up for the rest in my mind. Therefore, 65k+23k+wheels, etc. I personally would not buy it given all the track time it's seen.

Buying a used GT-R you could save anywhere from 15-20k after, especially when you have owners who know how to treat cars like the GT-R, not some teenager doing AWD drifts and donuts in an STI or EVO.
There a number of great deals out there considering many quick turnover owners of the GT-R and owners dumping for 2012 or 2013 GT-Rs. Right now, it's a great market for any GT-R...and you don't take a hit like people do with AMGs do.

Yeah there are some deals to be had. I agree with you
Many sell them to upgrade to another GTR, esp. the 2012 and 2013.
