I have the FN2 type-r (Euro - not too impressed) BUT I really want the FD2 i want the extra two doors AND the 165kw(222bhp)

what can you expect to pay in NZ$ for a 2007???

offset · 7th July 2008, 08:36 PM

FD2's are around the $$35-40k approximately.

ITR_cam · 7th July 2008, 08:37 PM

your definately making the right move wanting a fd2r.. those euro civic's havnt recieved much praise at all (not a real R in most minds)

the fd2r are going for around $40k here on the yard with >1,000km last time i checked

do you get bank loans on imports cars in NZ?
if so what is the expected intrest rate?

DrRubber · 7th July 2008, 08:47 PM

wouldnt worry about the intrest rates its insurance and fuel prices that will screw you over

jpg29 · 7th July 2008, 08:53 PM

insurance? what would you expect to pay for the FD2 (say 38K$)?
and fuel well the FD2 is no V8?

DrRubber · 7th July 2008, 09:02 PM

no but at well over $2 a litre Even a daihatsu charade is starting to become thirsty !!!

Insurance it depends on your age etc really

In regards to loans you can look to secure the entire value of the purchase on a loan. At the moment (im a finance broker) if you are an "a" your looking at 14.5 to 15.95%, with the worst rates heading towards 21-22% p.a

I'm currently paying around 15.5% intrest on a loan of $34000 (my '07 type-r FN2) this is around $750/month for 60 months.
do banks work the same over in NZ?

why not a business loan? 9.5% - 10%
