Although it's a nice clean looking car,the asking price is far too high.
Cheers John

Nice car, isnt poly green the Dark green?
That colour is ghey, poly would look ok. Oh drop the ride height, and the price. Its an EB2, look at the windscreen cowl. I have seen a couple of Ghia EB2, manuals.

yeah poly green is the darker 1, and that'd be 1 of the good looking colors with the kit....
GT's come in the dark maroon, dark blue, and i THINK there was some EL Gt's in poly? |

As others have said, it'd be a ripoff at half the price.

Looks Reef Green to me, very similar to our Wagon. I thought that only came out on ED/EF though.

Had a look at it today . its really rough inside. Its an EB1. silver buttons on the dash no abs etc. and its got a "K" on the plate so its a factory manual. but its looks better in the pics believe me.

I had the chance to buy an ED XR8 last year with 180k on it for $5 k. A ****ing steal in NZ, but I didn't have the cash at the time, wouldn't you rather an XR8 than a Ghia? Especially for that price. That thing looks like it belongs to a Maori anyway. |
