It's pretty sad he spelled Kaira wrong and he listed a R33 as a 1980 'other' oh yeah, he'll get buyers that way. Looks legit though.

From my vast ebay knowledge, its listed as a 1980 car because of the number of digits in the VIN. Then again, if it were legalized, and I'm pretty sure Motorex is the only company that does that, wouldn't it have a regular VIN?

Someone down there really needs to check it out.

I'm not quite sure I follow what's too good to be true. The fact that it's supposedly a TK model?

What I think is too good to be true is the price for now. Honestly, I've never heard of TK until now.

i thought TK cars had a bit more done than just a body kit....like engine work and suspension. some guy was selling a legit TK S13 silvia with CA and it had engine work, slight kit, interior, and suspension.

That's the second Tommy Kaira car to come out of Florida. There was a maroon Tommy Kaira M20 (or whatever their S13 was called) that changed hands a BUNCH of times, my guess is that there was something wrong with it/shady about it.

I wouldn't touch that thing with a 10 foot pole on ebay. If I was local that'd be a diff story, then I'd be interested.

EDIT: I had no idea there was a TK edition GTS, I know about the GTR's, the various Imprezas, etc...

I didn't see a "Buy it now" option on his auction, but he talks about shipping for free if you use it.

That Skyline is technically an R33 GTS-25t...
