Thats not a bad price.
Youd be lucky to build one yourself for that price.

I hope no one would think that's real?
But, if someone bought it, and took the guy to court would the seller have to give the buyer an actual v8sc?

I am curious to know why it is not real?

I am pretty damn sure its the real deal mate, not the first time V8SC's have been for sale on ebay...

Looks real to me. I reckon the gearbox would add a little to the price

Yer I guess after having a second look and all the comments I've been convinced its real, I've just never seen a v8sc or any proper race car on ebay before, caught me off gaurd. Don't these cost 400k to build?

It's real.
It's being sold by Britekmotorsport.
I bought my diff gears from them a while ago. Picked them up in Dandenong.
They had all there stuff up for sale last year, including two V8SC's and several engines

Looks like they might need the services of a good used car salesman.... It's been there since Oct '09!!

Was 2 cars for $300k iirc last year, and appeared 2ice on Ebay.
Good price for sure but then a holinger is 20-25k?
This would only be able to qualify as a super sedan? Would be the mop at the back of the pack?

such a pity bright sucks bum, there are other more reputable sites that people like SBR and DJR use to sell their old cars among others, and some of them have gearboxes and are complete turnkey cars and cost alot less than that - they are an older vintage though, but are a fully working V8SC

I also thought it was a scaled model. Look at the rims, they look plastic to me. I don't know, just doesn't look right.
