Now that’s a lovely 450 Bryce.

I don’t have, nor use Facebook.
In what state is she?

It’s in NSW. South coast I think. Want me to ask the seller for a phone number?

Any interest?

Michel, it's your colour, it's your fins - you must add it to your stable. Incidentally, I think it looks gross and horrible. Regards Styria

Hi Bryce, thank you for the offer, but I will have to pass.

I have just come back from my work trip, where I also went at 5am this morning to check out the green FC.
What a lovely car.

It’s one of the best driving old Holden’s I’ve ever driven.

I have some thinking to do.

 

[Patrick_R]

They even went to the effort of painting the wheel centres in that awful green

Looks like a nice car . Back in the 70s these cars were considered the best 4 door salons in the world. A similar Holden of that era for sale these days would probably be in the $30k range.
My 78 450 sel 6.9 sold for around $70k new when a Holden Statesman was around $17k. I just don't get why people want to pay silly prices for inferior cars.
By the way I have owned many Holdens over the years and still have a couple in the shed. Regards Mark.

Listed as a 560, but its a 500.

It’s value for money weekend.
What better way to enjoy a rainy weekend, and not going to do battle at shopping centres with panic buyers than browsing cars on line with a nice coffee

Plus, I’m highlighting convertibles.

This looks like a lovely well maintained car.
Certainly a whole lot of nice Saab quality & value for money.
I think you would own it for $2k cash.

This seems to be one of the nicest condition SL’s for the price I have seen.
Is it just me, or is the rear ride height low?

[Patrick_R]

Top line for the money I think.

[Patrick_R]

Not a bad spec car for the money, and under 200k on the clock.

[Patrick_R]

Now something exotic, but still good value from what I can see, and check out that arse!

[Patrick_R]

A fair bit more exotic, but the price still represents great value for money.
Plus
Who wouldn’t want that glorious Ferrari V8 sound in your ears with the roof Down?
Now that for me is where the value lies in this one.

Australian delivery, under 20k on the clock, serviced and long rego.

[Patrick_R]

Now for super exotic.
Low k, and check out that tool roll!!!!

No, it isn’t cheap, but compared to other 360’s this is great value.
With the current economic climate, some cheap cars are sure to be had if one has some spare cash.

When things get better, these will increase in value.
Not much to do, for this to happen, but just wait it out, drive a glorious convertible and enjoy

Love the colour of the Ferrari - a nice change from Red.
And yes, I think that R107 has been lowered a bit.

 

[Patrick_R]

Bryce,
I’m a bit fixated on the Maserati.
Nice badge
Nice car
AWESOME sound track.

 

[abl567]

The Masser is cool. a bit out there.
But that 6 speed gate in the Ferrari

 

[Patrick_R]

Ohhhhhhhhh Yeah!!!!!!

Have you guys seen Ford V Ferrari?
Very cool movie.
Has to be turned up loud if you haven’t seen it.
