What he wants is not what it is worth, what he accepts is what it is worth.
Personally it is a $20k car max. He needs to learn that you do not make much on the mods you have spent. Far better to part out the car and return it to stock for and easier sale.

I would shoot the seller, twice (just to be sure).

No one in their right mind would pay $60k for that.

As nice as the car is with plenty of go fast parts, I can't see someone handing $60k over for it.

Just to show how stupid Holden owners are.

He obviously thinks if you put 60k into a car that's how much it sells for, silly bogans..

That much power in that chassis is asking for a prang. That would be a handfull in the wet. I wouldn't pay what he is asking though.

Realistically, I have no idea how much this thing is worth....It is only worth what someone is willing to pay...do I think it is over priced? It has a lion badge on it...if it had a chevy one on it, it would be worth every cent!

30k in engine, 10k everywhere else, used, and wants 60k.

Holden mathematics at its best!

lol @ manual and 1.5s 0-60. Maybe whilst ripping a massive burnout...

Its worth what someone will pay for it, plenty of over priced Fords on the market too.
