Gen-F HSV R8 Tourer with...



Yup, manual box. And 340kW upgrade. Its averaged 800km a week for two years, so should be run-in... Have since committed cash to the house, otherwise I'd have that.

In other news, I'm growing a mullet and have a penchant for listening to Barnsey whilst chewing a stubbie.
Tempting, but the fact the steering wheel is on upside down could point to it being poorly maintained.

All these Alfa Romeos.... is there a PH group buy going on for Brave Pills ?

Meanwhile I've been looking at Pajeros as the wife has decided we need one to accommodate her family when they come and visit every 3 years!

"Car has nice cold air con and Sunroof although have never opened the roof." - Doesnt sound at all dodgy, does it! haha. Why would you make a point of saying you've never opened the roof if you werent covering your ass in anticipation of a future problem?

If it's anything like 928 sunroofs it won't work.

TenFour, good to have you in here, I'm sure you will be populating this thread if your history is anything to go by!

Well on chatting with a fellow PH'er last night, I was looking at :-



http://www.carsales.com.au/private/details/Ferrari...

and then



http://www.carsales.com.au/private/details/Ferrari...

Why is it that 348/355/360s are all about the same price?

But then I saw this :-



http://www.carsales.com.au/private/details/Dodge-V...

I know it's rubbish, and I know the inside is cheap materials, but 8.0 V10 .. hmm ..

The road trip from QLD to WA would be fun (and expensive on fuel).

Unfortunately not in the marketing for anything for a long while... Just window shopping..

That 360 sure must handle well...
Aren't 355 prices far above 360 / 348?

Looking at this:

BMW 3.0 CS
http://www.carsales.com.au/private/details/_/SSE-A...


And this:

Honda NSX
http://www.carsales.com.au/private/details/_/SSE-A...


Both or one would make me happy.

Also I think the 3.0 would be fun to drive at legal speeds.

Yep, and climbing fast. 6 months ago they were approx 360 level but now a good 20% higher.

Shame, beautiful machines.

That is lovely. It's almost identical to 'one that got away' from me about 10 years ago.

$85k, wow. And what were they new?

At $150,000 its the seller who must be dreaming not me!

http://www.carsales.com.au/private/details/Nissan-...

Meanwhile this looks nice:

http://www.carsales.com.au/private/details/Porsche...

And this looks expensive but probably a good long-term buy for someone who doesnt want to drive it:

This just looks wrong:

Some lovely metal being found!

That 348 is a standout (it's got all the upgrades of the later GTB and is awesome all round) as is the NSX.

Popped into the CTR in Sydney yesterday - they never cease to amaze with their prices boy OMFG the market seems insane at the moment. $80k for a 240z with a fair amount of filler! $140k for a nice enough Fez 328 and $189k for an '86 911 Turbo!

Owner is well known on NSX Prime forum. He does a lot of organisation and work behind the scenes. Will be a great car but personally not for me because its a targa and the dent in the rear right quarter will require a lot of work even though he's providing the new rear fender.

Was just in there today, same thought - though the Ghibli is rather nice. No surprise that the E28 M5 is still for sale at $130k...

robm3 - do let us know if you need another pair of eyes to help you look at some of those biggrin

Crazy prices aside its a great place to spend some time isn't it!

Do you know if the banker ever sold his left hand drive '73 911 RS that was up for a mere $900k?
