tuningblog.eu Your magazine about tuning the car
Sports cars are popular. And with a used vehicle, this dream can be fulfilled with relatively little money. Direct steering, strong chassis and lots of power: sports cars offer the ideal combination. Because of this, they are unfortunately expensive to buy. A new Porsche 911 Carrera (992 series) with a 385 hp six-cylinder turbo boxer costs at least 105.991 euros. The new Supra is also quite expensive at almost 50.000 euros. Even a VW Golf GTI costs around 37.000 euros and it is just a sporty compact car and not a sports car. If the wallet is small, however, it always helps to take a look at the used car market.
A good time to buy an athlete is between the ages of 13 and 18. Such cars are mostly in downturn because they are too old for the used car market and too young for a classic car. And a dealer does not guarantee such a vehicle. And that is reflected in the low prices. But after 17 to 18 years at the latest, the sports cars will generally increase in value again. And well-known manufacturers such as Mercedes, BMW or Porsche even very quickly.
Stay away from wild color combinations!
Classic combinations such as black leather interior or silver paintwork are and will remain popular. Real athletes, especially from Ferrari or Lamborghini, are also made in red to increase their value. But you should stay away from unusual color combinations. The resale value is usually low, even if the seller claims the opposite. And cars that come with Manual transmission have proven to be more stable in value than those with automatic.
Which models are valued?
Popular sports cars are the Audi TT, the Chevrolet Camaro, the Chevrolet Corvette, the Ford Mustang, the BMW M3 E90, the Nissan 350Z, the Porsche Cayman, the above-mentioned Supra, but also the Celica from Toyota. And be sure to pay attention to the Previous owner. What kind of guy is he? How does he feel about car care? So you can find out how the car was used and treated. Although the price for used cars is currently high, the price of interesting used sports cars is around 18.000 to 22.000 euros. There is a chic Audi TT, a BMW 1 Series as a coupe, a Nissan 350Z and the aforementioned Porsche Cayman. These cars are affordable and have enough power to make them really fun. Of course, the top models such as the 1-series M or TTs are sought-after and popular. And the Mercedes SLK and Mazda MX-5 are also interesting.
Make sure to have an expert look over it!
Anyone who buys a car without a backlog of repairs can do it follow-up costs reduce. In addition, in independent workshops that specialize in the particular make or model, the hourly wage is lower than in the brand workshop. The simpler the technology of the vehicle, the cheaper the parts for maintenance and the cheaper the insurance. In any case, you must have the Suspension, Motor and Transmission thoroughly inspected. Interested parties should also check the tread depth and the tread pattern of the tires, as these wear out a lot, especially during sporty driving. Joints and brakes are also affected by heavy use.
Of course, that wasn't the end of it.
