Its the ONLY Phase 4 left.......EVER!!!!!!!!!!

I even saw an ad on morning t.v for it while watching the news before work the other day.

Wonder what the green one which is actually plated GTHO would be worth if this went for 2 million?

In my mind a bargain and well worth the 2m, i hope it doesn't get hidden away......

Happy to be proven wrong but I would be surprised if someone parted with 2M.

(I don't know how much percentage they charge.... possibly around the same again????)

That's not a bad double dipping fee.

They've been pulled up on their fees before

I called it, its a bargain and i can now claim my rightful title of who to ask about the value of rare Australian muscle cars...

Good point, hadn't considered it like that but you are quite correct.

Deal, but i'll have to deliver it via shonky Somali arranged courier as im off shore working and cant show you my face right now...

To who ever bought the Phase 4. I wish them well.
I hope that the new owner is like the old owner. And lets the public view the car at Car Shows and the All Ford Day. And Not pushed away in some one's private collection.

Tough one to pick...the one that just sold was largely unrestored, the plated HO has been rebuilt, that could effect value.

[zoesgift]

the world would be a better place if there was more transparency in the Lloyds auction process me thinks

The one just sold is not what it was when it left Lot 6. It was a standard GT and has been "updated" significantly since. Australian Muscle Car magazine ran a few very good articles on the phase 4s in the early days that clarified each of the four cars and corrected some mis truths that were around from the 80's.

Imagine being at a car show and every man and his dog standing around the XA in awe whilst the Stinger is all by its lonesome in the carpark..

I thought your Toyota Camry could beat a Kia Stinger.

I think from now on if anyone tries to compare a kia to a gt falcon he should be instantly banned

[Rallye Sport]

Ohh this should be good

I have no doubts a stinger will obliterate it, in every measurable way, name something it does better?

Id take the stinger over that old tank anyday. Plus $1.95m in my pocket.

Keep fighting that good fight buddy

Geez the secret is out now. Every classic car owner better get rid of it quickly, cause it's soon going to be scrap metal money.

Especially anyone that has an F1 car from the 30's that would be obliterated by a Kia Stinger. May as well just take it straight to simsmetal.

I'm guessing you don't understand why some people spend a lot of money on antiques either then? Collectors would rarely be interested in the functionality of the item.

For one, you have a better chance with the Gt of it actually appreciating in value compared to the Stinger, which is far more likely to depreciate.

The Stinger probably isn't even going to make it to a second generation cause it hasn't sold very well. One of the Kia execs admitted that if it doesn't start really selling in the US then it's most likely they won't be doing another one in future.

Even here it hasn't really done that well.

[DJR-351]

I'm sold, I'm gunna go out and buy a Stinger.....

Can't understand why Kia didn't come up with this marketing ploy themselves....
