Expensive SS
Driving home yesterday, I came alongside a truly immaculate, black VX SS. The car was for sale and from what I could see of the advert on the rear window, it had full leather trim. The car was fitted with highly polished 19's from their appearance, black tint and looked absolutely schmick....
and the owner wanted $22,000 for it!
Stab it and Steer...
$22,000
Ouch....it would want to be packing a good 300rwkw for that sorta cash...
Then again, it might be just what someone is looking for........
If I'm not pulling Toyota's out of the Bush, I'm pulling 12's in the Sig :-)

yeh gotta say thats about right... when i was lookin a few months ago they where around the 18-22k mark for a decent ss with low km's this is in S.A every state has different prices
Likes Cheese...
yeah that dosent sound overly priced for a really good example. if i was in the market id be hunting closer to the 18k mark though.Originally Posted by dijm8
22 is rediculious mines immaculate and i got it for 12500 but it is a vt. vx's go around the 15k mare around here. even less now that petrol costs so much. honestly dont think if would sell for that much
^ Yeah but everyone's interpretation of 'immaculate' is different.
Car theives should be treated just like horse theives and cattle rustlers in the days of the wild west... Hang them!
Don't be stupid. Power isn't measured by the size of your tacho

I have to admit that the car looked as good as any VX SS I have ever seen and was obviously very well cared for. The list of equpment on the ad was too long for me to read as I passed in the traffic, so there were other bits and pieces I haven't mentioned. Can't say whether it was manual or auto.
It was a 2001 VX, so probably Series One. No matter how good it was, I just think that 22k was over the top.
mate i looked at about 5 different vt's and this one was by far the best. not one mark on it. very well looked after. dont see how immaculate can have much of a varation.
fark there was a vx clubsport r8 series 2 6sp man 78000 on the clock for 22600.ive seen vxss round the 16k mark
VX's are around the 14k mark. even seen a few VY SS's around 14 lately

Yeah, as said above, in the 20's is the HSV VX Clubsport range, not a VX SS.
yeah since that fuel prices are going through the roof a lot of people are dumping their v8's
where are u looking man?? vy for that much is a steal. might be a bit run down but etc.

Mate just paid 17k for his black vx ss with only 1000k on it that was from a dealer too. A guy at work expects to get 22k for his s1 VT clubsport. No matter what you tell him he seems to think cause he spent money on it its worth more than he paid
I was in the market for an upgrade around a month ago and and I found that 18k+ was about the going rate for a SS of some sort of quality in the Melb Sth East Suburbs. Ended up giving it a miss due the price of petrol factor, lets face it it's never ever going to get cheaper in my lifetime it only going to go up! Mind you i just celebrated my 102nd birthday last week. Hello, heart attack, must fiiiiiiiinish beeeeeer..........
Give my right testis for an 8 though.
Cheers, Daz.
