yeah its still as good as new thats why im hoping to get a decent figure for it.
what would you guys think its worth as is? (does have a long scratch on rear bumper though)
edit - selling to buy a brand new ute.
i reckon you'd get 30k for that. if you got the scratch resprayed though... with a scratch on teh car and your trying to sell it, you'll be hit a fair bit.
back on the main topic, thats is one friggin sweet ride. can i have your calais badges? they'd look nice on my VT ;)
MAYHEM
05-01-2005, 06:20 PM
not a bad guess -hsv- but yes would either get scratch fixed or knock 500 off
thanks for the comments guys.

OMG! Man, Last weekend I was in the market for a supercharged VX Calias and couldn't find one I liked, So I ended up buying a VY Supercharged S Pack, which I got for a real good price. If I only seen this one week earlier it probably would have been sold. Damn. Very very tuff car though dude.

Love the car man you should advertise it in the trading post in adelaide there are not many sc v6 calais here my mate waited for over 2 months for one.
P.S It has been asked but who is the chick in your avatar?
MAYHEM
12-07-2005, 07:09 PM
no idea who the chick is
wheels have been sold
now sports stock calais 16" wheels
new price 20k
It is a small world i was checking out your car a few months ago on a car site I was after a vxs2 calais. I wish I had gone further into it now. I ended up buying a silver 2004 HBD vx calais s2 in Adelaide for a lot more than you are asking. Now i am buying all the gear that you already have on your car.BUGGER. Your car would have been a steal at $22.000 good luck on the sale. PS the only reason i did not check your car out further was the P plate on it My mistake . Goes to show you dont get any wiser as you get older. Looks like it has been very well looked after.Someone will get a good cheap car. Cheers pops.

thanks mate
You have pretty much judged a book by its cover though havnt you? :rolleyes:
this is my 2nd car and is treated very well, some might say im obsessed with keeping it clean and etc :)
haha even my old man feels uncomfortable being it in cos its always so clean
this has about a week to sell or someone is going to get charged a lot more when its hiding behind a dealer fence!

yeh thanks! shes outside atm with stock 16" calais rims on it, still dumped on the ultralows tho! :cool: so doesnt look as good
new ride will be good, just takes time and money to complete - like the calais did

nice car mate, love the colour.
when i was shopping for my new one a found a capricorn berlina that i was about to buy but then found it was prolly in an acco.
the capricorns are hard to sell cos a lot of people dont like the colour
dealers hate having them - i suspect this is part of your problem.
i'm well pleased with my vxII berlina but sh|t i'd love to have a calais, unfortunately my budget was a bit less than your sale price and i've only just seen it now anyway
good luck
edit: tried putting it on carsales.com.au for some more exposure? its only $10 and its there until you sell it.

14-07-2005, 08:33 PM
There is no way capricorn mica is hard to sell. My old VT was that colour and i put it in the markets, sold in it 1 day. That green is so sexy, dont know why ppl dont like it

hows it sound with the V6 s'c with a 2 1/2 inch exhaust?
does it sound different to the normal V6's with exhausts,
i had a lukey 2 1'2 on my Vr V6 and it just droned abit too much for me
if it sounds a boit like a V8 tho, i may be interseted

give me a few days of better weather and i will take a video of it.
sounds way better than a normal V6.
This car looks tops. I've never seen it when i've been to ballarat, might get to see it before you sell it judging by how long its been up for sale :p

thanks for the comments!
yeh i think the wheels were a awesome choice, i was tossing up between these or XHP Sabers.
Car is still for sale, its unbelievable how even advertising this with the stock wheels for 19k is attracting no one. The online trading post shows one example thats cheaper than that but has 133ks on it! hell there was even one in yesterdays local paper for $25990!
i still havnt taken a sound clip yet but seeing as though this topic is active again i will.
as_hsv - its been advertised for well over 9months
oh and im no longer a P plater as of last thursday! :D
