What are they asking for it? They're damn good engines and don't let anyone tell you otherwise. By todays standards they're not the fastest or most technologically advanced but the are damn reliable, reasonably easy to work on yourself and parts aren't expensive.

Compare that in the VS model, the supercharged 6 put out 165kw. The 5L V8 put out 168kw. Difference is the 6 gave excellent torque straight off the line.

I bought mine three years ago with 99,000kms on the clock for $10,500. But mine also came with logbook and all service receipts. I guess $8000 might be realistic but it depends on how bad you want to buy it compared to how bad the seller want to sell it.

ok i talked the guy down and he is selling it to me for 5k.
its very clean i will post pics when i get it.
he showed me his papers he got it for 14k three years ago..

80,000 kms? therefore the body should be perfect + whole car so should be worth least 6k. what did he do buy it and never drive it?

[exa_aaron]

haha yeh im not sure bout that one. he had a few cars in his little showroom.
he had to sell one for his new project car and i saw that one and offered him 5k and he said ok.

so im glad u think im getting a good deal it makes me feel good.
i will take care of it and kep it clean do u think it will keep its money worth??

If you keep the ks down and keep it clean and tidy, no dints/scratches/etc and keep the log books up to date.. then it shouldnt go down toooo much... but inevitably it will, but doesnt matter, youre getting a great deal, just enjoy it
