Don't do it Jamie. What a beautiful example. Why are you selling?

[jamiep]

Just fancy a change, i never keep cars long, if i dont get full asking price ill keep it so who knows.

Jamie, don't do it - you'll lose a fortune and nothing will replace the thrill of V8 rumble. If you're bored already why not make it a 1000bhp project? Get a 427cu engine built with forged internals & convert it to 4WD to get the power down! Then, when you sell it I'll buy it off you

[jamiep]

I am in 2 minds tbh, fancy a porsche GT2 but not sure i can face spending 50+k on a car.

Nice car, handles and goes well but expensive and dull to look at, driven by chinless stock brokers who know nothing about cars. Still want one?

really , dull to look at, I know what instanly catches my eye in the rear view mirror

Dude you need to fit some decent heads and a cam and add 100+ BHP to your current beast.
Better yet SC a stroker, thats what the ozzies do.

[jamiep]

Yea maybe, ill give it a couple of weeks and if it dont sell ill look at other mods, i should have gone for a 2.3 whipple first time.

[ringram]

try blowing through a thin straw, then try with a thicker one...
Thats the same as the stock heads/cam, there is loads of power to be made when done right, afterall there is plenty of displacement, you just need to get the air in there.

DONT DO IT . Its awsome. How many Porsches do you see on the road. I've only ever seen one other Ro, there so rare. You cant possibly be bored with it. Rent a KA for the weekend,that should help. From Bonnie

awesome motor mate. Keep it.

German stuff is too common. My VXR8 gets more attention than my mates M6.... He paid over 80k for his. Nightmare!

[After_Shock]

Lovely car and be daft to sell so quick after spending that money in such a short time!

Unless their is a buyer out their for something exactly as your selling think you will be lucky to get near the asking price, people just dont see the value in the mods.

[jamiep]

Ive had a few emails on it but they want all want silly money for there px's, im not to bothered if i sell or not really, im going to build another fast supra either way.

[maverick964_uk]

hi. How do you find the LS7 clutch. Heavy, bitey etc?.

I can understand why you say this but I decided against it as they are alot of money. Very nice and all but unless you have money to burn they are just expensive. Try comparing parts and servicing to that of the Ro.... Additionally I always get compliments on mine and questioned about it when its out since there are so few... just see the comment above about Porkers to get an idea of what peole think in general about them. They are good on a track but you also have to be good at driving them!
PS: Mines the same as yrs but with proper size wheels!

[jamiep]

Im gonna give till this weekend and if no serious bites ill take it off the market.

Not be better to continue taking the monaro further as opposed to buying a second car and doing that up from scratch?

Had anything daft offered as a px like a 1.0 corsa!?

[jamiep]

px offers so far are a couple of tvr's, a audi A8 w12 and a audi tt, but they all want to much for theres, ill pay trade only money as a px.
I think the car is a bargain myself, show me another 2006, 15,000 mile, 600bhp car you can get for that money. it also looks the bizz imo, come to think of it ive just talked myself out of selling it
