Default $82,500??

Worth it?

I mean it's a NICE car.. I love the color and I dig the engine.. but is it worth that much coin?

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/67-Ch...QQcmdZViewItem


I'm think more in the $50k (maybe $60k) range.. thoughts?

No.... I think that the interior looks cheap and under the hood has to much going on I think. I dig the wheels and the motor though.

I think it could be. It's a pretty clean car, but the TCI stuff has to go. That front clip is junk, but other then that the car's pretty nice.

The TCI test car was at the track last time running the cones and the skidpad. It had the new TCI front clip and rear deal.

It pulled over 1g in one direction and almost g in the other direction on sticky Toyo RA1 R-compound tires..

True story..

If I had to guess, I'd say the low end of fifty, if that.

No way. I saw your post title and expected alot more. What is special about that? I dont even think it deserves 50k, but I could understand it hitting that mark maybe.

The Vette is done, and will be tested April 4th. Sony has even done all the shooting for GranTurismo HD! We want some track time!

We even have a video camera on its way and mounts to get some driver perspective for the slalom.

Very close to what I am going for, but t-56 and no ls2. Pretty nice car though, lots of things I would change.
