Yeah column shift, pretty much sold me on it.
Will run it up to Perth tomorrow ~450km round trip to pick something up. Forgot how good of an effortless highway cruiser they are.

2010 XR6 Turbo Ute with over 200,000km on the clock and an asking price of $25,000. I'm not sure that's good value, but the Velvet was somewhat rare, especially on an XR.

Colour listed as Viper

Velvet is such a nice colour IMO. Rarely see it on any FG.

It's not a crazy science, but before Crazy Dazz posted the second post, the posts would have read 4999. It's not the number of the post, but total posts by the user (in areas that count).

And the number could go down, if prior posts were deleted.

And only one photo of the car. As a dealer, they should know better, yet they want someone to drop $25k on a 14 year old Falcon.

Could just be an ailing ZF. That plus cosmetic issues would push the price down.

Been watching how tanked the market is. There is a lot of enthusiast cars for sale and not moving, even at what I would consider cheap prices. Especially in the $10,000 to $40,000 bracket. I put this down to being the lower end and those are the people that are hurting right now. I still don't think we are even at the bottom yet.

Still looking for a clean manual VY Clubsport in Hothouse green or a VZ Clubsport in Impulse blue. Nothing, all the bogans and other enthnicities have flogged the life out of them or dreamers that want 60k.
