    Yeah, gonna +1 that.

    10 is bit steep, given it's out of rego as well. Granted it's an SS with some extras, but it's still just a VT II. Those go for about $8000.

    For it to be worth $10,000 out of rego, it'd have to be a damn good car.

    Thats a pretty impressive list of goodies in there, the cars in great nic from the photos whats the interior like?
    its got low kms for a 99 model so 10k is pretty reasonable,go in between and say 9 or 8,5 see what he says
    Also check my ride,sitting on HSV R8 19's

    we dont have RWC in SA, 10k sounds steep, but then when you look at the km's and the mods, its not that bad really, but yeah see if you can get some pics of interior. and the car is actually registered till 2012

    i am always suspicious on low kilometre cars that been modified if it's an SS keep it that way

    speedos are to easily changed

    I would never buy a car with a stally or cam, no one does this unless they are going to thrash it. Save a few more grand and get a stock vx ss manual then mod if thats what your after

    this is true, ive never heard of camming an LS1 for driving to the grocery shops

    but seriously 10k is VXII SS material, much more refined car

    yeh I did hear there was problems with the first LS1's not sure what as it was a long time ago but they might have even done a recall.
