Hello all,

Sorry about the bad quality of the pictures, but they were taken in the dealership by a phonecam..

The UAE Gulf specs seems to be a GSR, 6speed, non-bilstein suspension. The Gulf cars are equiped with AYC. They come without a radio! Power declared is 290hp or so.. Colors available are red, white, black, elec. blue and silver. Center console not available. Leather two tone seats.

It only comes as such, the only option you can have is the color, none other is available expect thru aftermarked (they got a ralliart division with the most ridiculous prices...)

Enjoy the pics..

*ordering one soon..*

 

salam

theres no center console? whats in its place?

 

Salam 4Wslide!

I didnt see quite well really.. It's my first look at the IX and i got somehow overwhelmed.. I'll take more pics (as they dont usually allow) as i get more serious negotiating with the guys..

And ya, one more thing: it's going to an equivalent of $36,000 (US) insurance should be about $1,500 per year..

Guys, how do i get the images to show real-size in the post instead of thumbnails?

Thanks

Wael
*i am confused between the black and the silver..*

 

Silver, TB has ugly blue/purple flake in it.

As much as I hate silver... The flake just ruins TB.

 

No radio or center console for $36,000 WHAT ! Dude that is a rip off. Brotha you might want to see if there is another way to order on from somewhere else like maybe Qatar, cause that is ridiculous. Good luck man keep lookin.

 

nice

 

oh ****, is that a midnight blue IX? looks waaay too dark to be electric blue pearl.

 

^ it's just the lighting.

 

At least they get jdm headlights and rear bumper. I would love to have those 2 over a radio =P

 

thats a good looking car.

Hey man im currently deployed to Abu Dhabi. do you live in Dubai? How is it there?

 

haha

 

No problem buddy

Wael,

I sent you a pm. 36K is not much because you guys have AYC and leather seats included. Radio is no issue as you can install one there for cheap.

The price is not a rip off it’s just a tad higher than what it spouse to be. I am talking here about $1K more.

Talk to them and drop the price 1 to $2Ks and you should be fine.

I will get you going with all the parts you need and I will make calls for you today.

I sent you my work number and you can call me any time.

Just to explain how the price works.

GSR in the US with radio goes for $31899 that includes destination charge “MSRP”. Now no one will pay MSRP here or there in Dubai but to keep everything apples to apples we have to stick with MSRP.

Now he has AYC there which is a sweet option and leather seats included. Yes I would have paid $1500 to $2000 extra for AYC if it was available here in the US.

That puts us to $34000 plus leather is another $1000 = $35000

The price is okay but try to lower it with the sales guy.

 

thats sweet. LHD with AYC. 36k isnt bad at all compared to what we pay here in Taiwan.

 

Yup. I'd rather have AYC done a center console.

 

that ix is tight as hell I would trade in a heartbeat plus aftermarket stereos aren't expensive
