How long until VXR8s are £20k

[gareth h]

My personal pain threshhold is £20k, how long would you think before they start appearing at this money?

Wait till you start filling her up every week with Vmax, then you'll really feel the pain threshold.....

I was going to say "thats cos you drive like a big girl and even yr your other half is faster" .... then I remembered you were faster than me at V. Max so thought better of it!

According to redbook, an 06 GTS (nearest thing to a VXR8) was $75K new, now $60K at 2 years old and 40,000Km.
On that basis, probably at least 2011 before they hit $40K (£20K) here.
Actually, looking at it another way, that is just over 50% of the new price. To buy a GTO at 50% of new you have to look at an 03 V2 series2 at around 100,000Km. So 2011 looks about right.

12 - 18 months here, they are at £25k now
