Hey guys at the moment im looking at a VP SS. Red in color, engine has done 230 thousand but guy is saying previous owner rebuilt the engine, has cam exhaust shift kit ect.
His asking around 7k, is this to much?
Thats a good price if you drive it and nothing sqeakes, rattles, knocks, shudders or whines. The paint will also have to be in vgc and interior cant be shabby...
Does the guy have receipts for the engine rebuild? if not id be a bit sceptical.. i could sell my car, have you standing right beside it running and tell you it has a cam and been rebuilt, and it hasnt had any of it done... how many people do you see advertising that the motor eas rebuilt a year ago??? just something to make you more inclined to buy it.
I saw a link to a Red VP SS, manual, for 5k.
PM vnexecutive, he might still know the link.
thats about the going rate for a VP SS, but it'd wan't to have a power pack and be immaculate for 7k.

Cobez. Always trying really, really hard.
Gotta admire his spirit.
Also, I'd say around $6k would be tops, unless you really fall in love with it and wouldn't settle for anything less![]()

You know the saying, a VP fan is just a VN fan who cant read or write...![]()
its over heated at least once since he knows it needs a water pump, 100 bucks= new coolant, new clutch 200 and labour if your not doing it yourself, in the end it will be over 5 grand as it is.. the paint and kays are good though by the looks of it.
And vp over vn, ive owned a few of both and the vp is the winner by a long shot. the visual differance between vn ss/vp ss & vn calais/vp calais are big enough to stop the debate right there.
How long is a piece of string?
You know the price...
