Looks good. Guess it's personal opinion, but I'd remove the aftermarket V8 badge.

Don't you love context sensitve ads - my screen shows ads for Russian women. As much as I love my Q, the blonde wins hands down for beauty!

Are they genuine BBS wheels? If so and you can't find a centre cap locally you may want to look to our old friend eBay as there's one posted at the moment - http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors...60158

Your car looks to be in good shape and is very clean-nice!

Are you sure you're in Russia? I thought it was always gray and snowing-at least that what's American propaganda told me! LOL

Cheers!!

By the way, where do you find such cars in Russia ?

Are they found at car sellers or purchased from private owners ?

There should be some Infinity dealers there I'm thinking. I have a friend living in France and his girl friend, French works for Infiniti and travels to Moscow for the company so I'm thinking there are Infiniti agencies there ?

How much do you have to pay for a car like that in Russia ?

I've always liked slavic languages' sparing use of definite articles (the).

Welcome! Nice Q. The paint looks great.

6-8 thousand dollars is more than what such a car will sell for here in the US ?In fact I doubt that your car would sell for even 2 K ?

BTW how much is gasoline in Russia ? Is the price of gasoline fixed, not taking into account the price of oil, or, has the free market been allowed to work ? Meaning that if the price of crude oil goes up then so will gasoline and if the crude oil goes down the reverse will happen?

We are told by the media that Russia will be affected very much by the drop in oil prices ?

Not my intention to go into political discussions here but since we do have to cope with the ups and downs of the free market I was wondering how it is in Russia ? Of course WE LIKE the down side ? Europe has a different idea of how their societies will function ?

The price is so high because of the customs fees. It depends on year of manufacture and cubic capacity.

Premium fuel costs about 75 cents per litre. But it is dropping now in the context of world oil prices drop.

But inspite on this oil prices drop all other services will rise after Cristmas

A good NICO car could easily bring that much. A car of unknown provenance, not so much.

Looks like your fog lights are aftermarket?

Not quite a free economy yet, eh? Sounds like vestiges of centralized planning still remain.

Hopefully that will not be true of us for long.

Hmmmmmmmmmmmm! Reminds me greatly of what the United Socialist States of America has become in last 90 days, with the nationalization of the banks; mortgage industry; insurance industry; and, most recently, the auto industry! Russian crooks becoming nearly as good as ours! But, I digress.....some fine looking wheels over there, me recalling the Russian Ladas and Trabants one would see when in the DDR before 1989!
