There's one for sale on here at the moment - been on sale for a while now. I'm detecting a hint of sarcasm in the newly worded description though....and I'm guessing the new price is a hint of sarcasm too....

Occasionally in the depths of winter I wonder if I should keep the 400SX, but the feeling doesn't last too long. Your tale of woe confirms it - DON'T SELL!

I don't know why people fuss so much about the 450. I used to own a 450 but I've had 400's that are quicker. It all depends on it's mechanical condition and state of tune. If it's for investment purposes, then I understand, but you have to make sure it's low milage, low owner, immaculate and pure.

This is my fifth wedge and every time I sold one, soon after I started regretting it. In between I bought a chimera and a 290s but I've always come back to a wedge. Three of the wedges I've owned have been a 400, one was a 390 in the form of a 350SE and another was a 450. Every now and then I get the urge to buy a modern Tuscan and it's an itch waiting to be scratched. It's a car I've always had a passion for on the surface, but I'm not quite sure quite how it'll pan out if it becomes reality.

Found my Wedge that I really like, had the odd TVR and think I have found a great balance between my T450 and the Gredge 😉

What a stunner. I'd love a 400se but for me a 450se is the ultimate. Love the shape.

Yep, been there..like many of us on here. I bought a C4 Corvette after owning a 400SE...soon sold that, and bought another 400SE. I then decided to try the curvy models, so bought a 450 Chimaera...that didn't last long either, so I sold it and bought a 450 SEAC. Currently own a 420 SEAC..which (fingers crossed) is going nowhere! biggrin
