I already have a VE V8 Manual Wagon
Thanks for the input

Why the snarkiness?

I just replied saying that you could also get a V8 manual VS in an SS??

What am I missing ?

So the question must be asked.......................why are we looking at VS' ???? ;););););)

Haha, indeed..great old beasts (hell I drive one on a daily basis), but not at that money. I'd part with 5-6k for it, but no more.

I like unusual cars and because they are getting harder to find the ones I’m interested in I’ll buy

5 litres are fun to drive.....in manual moreso.

While mine was an auto, if I had somewhere to keep it I would have, instead of selling it when I got my VE.

Probably yes..but that's not rocket science is it? The youngest is now 22 years old and manuals were far less common than autos when new. Chuck a V8 into the mix and you hardly have a chance of finding a good one now,

Does that help?

No one has really answered that question

Yes they have:

Exec Manual V8s are a bit rare more rare the later the model,

but a lot of people have ripped apart the car I’m interested in

Ok, go and buy it then. That's what you want to hear isn't it?

If you post on a public forum then expect to have a wide variety of replies.

Seriously, pump up.

If it was a ute it would be a fairly rare. I look a fair bit on Gumtree Tas for VR/VS utes and very seldom do they come up at a good price.

would a xy falcon 500 with a v8 (302 or 351) manual be worth more than a gtho now
that will be the same as a exec to a ss or clubby in the future thats all your got say to your self before you hand over the cash
