    Default One of a kind Monaro.......

    Just came across this on NZ's TradeMe site.......

    Holden Monaro 2003 for sale - TradeMe.co.nz - New Zealand

    No prizes for guessing the mistake in this listing!

    I'd say they put the wrong photo in the wrong ad by mistake. I wonder if there's a Falcon on the same website with a Monaro interior? lol

    It's actually an interior pic of a ba falcon. I picked it up straight away because our work cars are falcons, thought it looked familiar.

    Im aware that monaro's came out in CV6 as well as CV8, in the listing it says its 3800cc. Us kiwi's aren't that stupid give us some credit!

    3800cc is 3.8l

    1ml = 1cm^3 of water, ergo 3800cc = 3800ml = 3.8L

    Yep, but this is always the case. I suppose it's just the way the marketing goes, they round the numbers up, so rather than saying 3.791L, they just say 3.8L.

    The LS1 is 5665cc, but again it's always referred to as 5.7L

    Im pretty sure its like this, .5 and above you round it up.

    take the ls1, 5665cc, 5.66, above .50 so round up to 5.7 if thats makes sense.

    Cloest to the nearest hole or X . X litre

    Yea it is normal dealer price. CV8's would be around $34 - 36,000.

    Remember that $26,000 NZ dollars is roughly $20,310AUD.
