Honestly a BTI "sik ULEH BRO EAT A KEBAB Re " is worth no more than any other commodore of the same ers... If anything a calais is worth a ton more because of the extra's eg electrics etc. Don't go knocking the SLs. Who needs air con and P/S? Also there was a bog stock CT, on Carpoint, for $16,000. (Got removed. It was up there for about a year and a half) Now that's way overpriced. IMO. It wasn't even the best example of one. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

BT1's do probably sell for too much. But then again, so do VLT's in general.

good on ya andy!!!! bringing in wogs and shi$ has nothing to do with it maybe a little maturity might be a good starting point .. either way yes looking at physically just the car the calais would look tobe worth more eg more of the product throw in other factors about reputation history etc its a different story the bt1 has been branded exactly like nike etc **** clothing maybe they put a tick on it and they get 2000% increase

Isn't it funny when a someone get's a BT1 and their like " omg bro it's a bt1 i'm a sick ****, i dont give a **** about cops bla bla " They say that when they bought the car because it was owned by cops? Well whoever thinks that, you are a true blue dumb****.

if ur isolating a certain race ur being racist... ur just a ****head and u wanna talk it up coz u got a calais... ur a dead set sh it head... if people want one and are willing to pay asking price... get over it if italians and lebs want one, then let them pay for it... if other people decide they wanna follow the trend of BT1's being "cool" then let them... its soo simple u want it more u pay more for it, WHY people want it isnt the point...

If holden made a turbocharged car in the mid 90s, there would be no VL turbo hype. The only reason they demand big prices is because its the cheapest turbo car you can get into for the price (so people charge more as theyre popular). No need to start up a thread because you dont like the fact that a base model happens to be worth more than the calais. Do you really care.
