Guys I heard there is a Prelude BB8, unregistered car is available for sale. And owner has said its a harbor auction.

What is the suitable price for such a car, owner said the registration will cost about 3laks. I am in search of an upgrade for my car and heard the news about this Prelude.

Its an enthusiasts car so finding a buyer will not be easy. Just quote a random number that comes to your mind. May be a million?

Be warned that a customs auctioned car would have gathered plenty of rust so you will need to inspect it thoroughly. Also RMV will stamp the chassis number and print "BOUGHT FROM CUSTOMS AUCTION" on the CR so the fact that its an auctioned car will be stuck with it forever.

thanks crosswind, so if it's customs auction, still it will be a legit car isn't it.

Next thing is, how practical it to be used as a daily runner. Let’s assume fuel economy not a major issue but should be 7-8 Kmpl in City. According to my friend it’s auto gear with H22A or similar engine.

As it’s an enthusiast’s car, will it be un movable to new hands after few years. Here I’m not talking about resale value.

I have no clue about Preludes as daily runners, but in general, cars auctioned from customs come in various forms (sometimes in pieces) and with various missing components. On top of it, they may have lied in the customs yard for long periods of time getting exposed to elements.

But like you said, it WILL be a legit car, if customs have issued the necessary legal documents for registration. There are cases when auctioned cars would be in a state bad enough for customs to not issue registration documents, but you know what little brown envelopes in this country can achieve.

CJ5 you quoted very old reply. I brought the thread back because I came across a prelude BB8. However for some doubtful reasons I didn't go further. However do you know any unreg , prelude.
