Looks like a nice car, but I think he has blisters on his pointer finger and his thumb. I reckon that this would be worth 25K tops. And that is only if it is as good as he says it is. :

I emailed asking why it's worth more than a phase 3.

His reply.

He's dreaming, i'm sure they made more Fairmonts than GT HO's :

condition; new

Quote:
Guideline for describing an item's condition as "new." In general, an item can be listed as "new" if it's unused and fully functional, has no damages or signs of usage, and has only been in stock for a specific maximum time. The time in stock must not have a negative impact on the item's condition. Also, the item must not have become outdated because of more the availability of more recent models in its category (for example, categories like audio equipment, electronic devices, photo & camcorders, mobile phones, organizers, computers, as well as PC & video games).

"Note to buyers: The price of $500,000/200,000 is without a doubt, a top-dollar ask; it probably won't sell, meaning it will stay in our family. This price is what it's worth to us, even if not to anyone else. However, this is the only price my family would consider parting with the love affair I have for this beautiful piece of Australian history."

Did anyone else notic that both adds say almost the exact same thing. Its the same guy just being a ИИИИing idiot. wouldnt suprise me if he dosnt even own the cars.

Someone should knock him the ИИИИ put. What is he thinking. Plenty of people reckon a HO Phase 3 for $200,000 is rediculas let alone a GS for that money. A XC Cobra for half a million. Sentimental value does not equal actual value that a person is willing to pay. What about the Cobra on eBay for $80,000? People jumped off the deep end but at $500,000. What a joke.
