I just want one

[Reltub]

Sold my big boot VXR Monaro a few years back to help to fund buying a house, its been hard driving a van all this time but needs must. I need one back in my life or even a VXR8. My dilemma is after six months of looking, nothing seems to fit the bill. Spec v's Cost stops me even enquiring. Some of the VXR8's seem to be over priced since the new one was available. I know this is a small market so may have to be patient. Does anyone think after having a Monaro that an E46 M3 (the V8 is just out of budget) could scratch my itch, as there are a lot more available.

Thanks S800VXR, maybe I need to see some bad ones when they come up around the 15k price range to we what you mean. It's just that I vaguely remember some new VXR8's selling new for around the 24k (may be wrong). So that's why I thought the 20k ones seemed high. But at the end of the day I understand it's market led. I also thought maybe with the prices of the new model being so high dealers may be looking at the pricing wrong.
Thanks ARAF, I really don't want an auto, I don't like the disconnected feeling the torque converter gives.

Back in a V8 thanks to James at Elite, 1st drive in a VXR8 was four and a half hours drive home yesterday, good job I like it. Don't have any pics at the minute before you ask, but its the blue one. Thanks for the help, glad I didn't waste time looking at BMW's, I don't know what it is about these cars but nothing does it for me like the RO did and now the R8.

Standard I think, except for full wortec and over rad air intake, plus its had a CD changer modification.

Hi WS, your car looked great, always loved the red VXR RO

How are you finding your new VXR8.

Cleaned it this morning, after picking it up from James it looked a bit unloved from the 4.5 hour drive home in the rain. Looks great again. Went out too show off to friends and meet for lunch, love the noise, I think it drives better than the RO.
