I see he's come down in price - I was speaking to the guy at Al Aweer and he wanted 580k a couple of months back.

Supposedly signed by Carole Shelby and has 1,100km on (Genuine?)
there is/was 2 at al awir and another at al hai motors in deira. i very much doubt any of them are based on a genuine gt500.


there's a pair of koenig 560 sec's on the bizzle at the mo. one of them with low kms at AED40k, nay bad for what would have been a million+ originally.

Over $37 invested in the first one... Think he meant $37,000?

These have got my interest, but can only find 1 on bizzle.

i can't view pics on the bizzle at work but i'll search tonight.

there was one for 80k with the KS grille, another for half the price with about 60k on the clock. had the wide body with a black standard MB grille.

i searched for all cars with pics upto 1996, was in the first 10 pages iirc.

Lovely - I was looking at that earlier. Must be Japanese in that condition.

Paint the wheels black and keep the rims silver and you're away. I'm resisting the urge to call and buy it but not tell the wife until she scoots off for the summer...

It's a left hooker though, Japs are right aren't they? I agree, looks too good to have been here 20 years!

Rich Japs used to like to show their money by buying left hookers. Hence the ready supply of Mercs, BMWs etc (inc. Ms and AMGs) if you put the words 'japan' or 'japanese' in the keyword box on dubizzle.

I called the guy to take a look but he said he's flying to Saudi this afternoon. I'm off on hols next week so doubt I'll get to see it. I'd love a piece of that at 35k.

Late 3.0 so 0-60 in 6 and a bit and just a touch shy of 150 at the top end. Not to be sniffed at!

Indeed not, that's better than I thought, not far off the Pony.
