To me it seems like no one wants to take it for such a ridiculous amount, and a current affair will be one big for-sale ad.

Maybe not, but why else would you go on there for?

damon90 · 06-09-2007, 09:16 PM

cosidering they cost what like 5000 brand new it would be good profit if ya had one from brand new

uranium_death · 06-09-2007, 09:18 PM

The 1980s was when car prices exploded...wasn't a Falcon back in 1979 only like 5k...by the end of the decade, was like 20k.

Whoever buys it...good luck to them.

I think from memory that my father bought the XE for $14K brand new back in Jan '84.

WillsEDfalcon · 06-09-2007, 09:44 PM

I didnt get to see ACA but where has the beast ended up to? Australia or Overseas? I get shivers down my spine cause the old man sold his XY falcon for $1000.

Cheers, Will

yift · 06-09-2007, 10:01 PM

theres anopther in the latest unique cars (ferrari front cover) for 700k plus and also chassis no.6 ford sierra from djr for 250k+ and a few other bits and pieces

A mill for a Phase 3 seems to be the asking price for most these days... its certainly not the first to be advertised for this price..

Seems like just an advertising stunt to me.. whats 5 mins of airtime during peak ratings worth these days?

Correct me if i'm wrong.. But isn't this still the first one that was advertised at 1mil? And it just hasn't sold?

bob 351 · 06-09-2007, 11:08 PM

i thought one sold a couple of months ago for 1 mill

The diamond white one that was on muscle cars? Cos this is the same car I think?

(feel free to prove me wrong, I just never heard that the 1mill car actually SOLD, it was just put up for that price).

bob 351 · 06-09-2007, 11:17 PM

oh ok maybe i was mislead

starkersEB · 06-09-2007, 11:20 PM

That is one nice car.
something about those cars that makes them worth that much. Always wanted to own one since 1971,guess i never will.

nickd · 06-09-2007, 11:55 PM

I reckon its ridiculous that prices have gone through the roof,

If I had one i'll drive mine not sit and start with no kms.....

my two bobs worth.

BLACKAUXR8 · 07-09-2007, 12:17 AM

the one that sold a few months back was $693,000 if i remember right and at the time that was the record for any Aus built ford...

pretty sure the current record is a touch over $800k and that wasn't that long ago either.

i reckon good luck to him. obviously trying to take advantage of the boom at the moment. i will not be at all surprised if it fetches very close to what he's asking.

a lot of you people saying these things are looking at it as a motor vehicle purchase. its gone way beyond that. these things are a classic piece of aussie history and a collectors item, a very sought after one at that. recent history has shown there are those out there with the funds to grab it at that sort of money. these people are not handing over their last pennies either. it would be to them what $20k is to you or i.

XWildGT · 07-09-2007, 07:02 PM

I love it i hope the prices keep going up so my xw gt will go up to but i havent seen a holden match the gts prices yet so what does that say ha ha ha

It says to me "I have more money, then sense" lol. Just kidding. The GT is a highly desirable Aussie muscle car. I'm sure once all the hype is over XU1, GTS Monaro, and A9X prices will skyrocket.

Really they should, because they accomplised as much as what the GTs did.

Until the next recession, then every man and his dog will be trying to get whatever they can for them.

SPK-250 · 07-09-2007, 01:12 AM
