My old Turbo X88 up for sale again. Looks like its been standing all the years since i had it.
Collector market has a lot answer for leaving these cars without use and it appears not have been serviced in many years.
well, I guess they are not lying when they said this:
"All UK-registered cars and motorbikes on Collecting Cars are run through an online HPI check. On the HPI report, this vehicle shows no insurance database markers for damage or theft,..."
..... BUT somehow it's hard to believe that Jenson Button did not know the history that came from you & further back from Sultan of Brunei. Thus the knowledge should be there & thereby divulged in this auction.

In scanning the pictures, I thought that your old car looked a little rough around the edges; it didn't have that sharpness and cleanliness (especially in the engine compartment) that I would expect for a car of that mileage.
How many miles were on it when you sold it?
From memory i sold with about 18300 odd miles , last service in 2014 at 1808 miles done not long before i sent it to JZM for sale.
So it appears to have done less than 1k miles since then. Yes there was paintwork to engine lid , passenger quarter panel , wing and front bumper.
That popped up on my Youtube feed yesterday.
Looks like a nice of a moderate mileage car (high mileage being over 100k miles IMO).
It a shame they didn't fix the "smile" in the front bumper though.

That is symbolic selling the yellow 3.6T. I have to say I have not been pleased with most all the Japanese imports I have seen. There is no way to confirm history or originality and 9 out of 10 there is heavy repaint and or some shady stuff going on. Not that they are bad cars by any means but not as represented IMO.
Me too!
The only Turbo I've ever looked at in detail was my own when I was planning on buying it. I was by no means an expert on all things Turbo but in the following 15 years no system in my car has gone untouched. It's been fun and expensive...
Another data point: Porsche Bellevue sold a Turbo 3.6 for $325K. Pros - one owner car with under 20K miles. Cons - unusual color (a PTS pink-toned silver) with burgundy interior, phone console, light curb rash on wheels.

First, the BIG question: Are you asking about a 3.6? or a 3.3?
I will assume you are asking about a 3.3 ....
Without all the details on maintenance history, whether it needs more attention now (PPI), condition of paint, interior, etc etc,... I would say the range is anywhere from $140k CAD, to $240k CAD.
Mine has 80k miles,... so just because this car is at 95k miles, does not mean it "should" be inexpensive.
with more insight into the cars condition,.... I'm sure we could narrow the range

Reason: assumption you are asking about a 3.3
Update - the yellow 3.6 sold through DealTank for $290K!
You mean $295k with buyers fee. That is a fair price considering it has a documented 53k miles although I find it strange that the calipers have been redone or replaced, the speedline wheels refinished without any etching and the rear emblem is improperly mounted. (at least the dot and the 6). I would need to see the car in person to really know what it was worth. I have a hard time trusting these imports. Nearly everyone I have seen up close looked better in the pictures. Still good cars but?
Strange enough this car has a sticker under the front hood. This was not a thing in the Japanese market so I am assuming it was added? It also has no options other than sunroof yet it has full leather interior? Very strange The 3.6's came standard with vinyl interior. Also the speedlines should be painted since there is no option code for the polished centers. Something doesn't add up.
