Dnt n e of u stop to think that VLT are over priced alltogether? ask n e skyline owner, or n e lover or n e other car and theyll tell u that... and then ill get the sh its and bash them lol yeh mods its peaceful convo, please dnt close it *MWA* but for its day it was pretty 'hectiQ' lol... and i love them thaits why i bought 1... cmon sif just thinking in ur mind "lol cops used to chase us in this, and now theyre chasing it" its like n e thing branded with a "name", nike etc... and just for the record im lebanese and i think that bt1's are fully sick, better than my calais, specially yellow ones but in new south all bt1's are white thats soooo gay... btw lebs dnt actually say "fully sick" its just a rumour.

LOL! an rb25 is a better developed version of the rb30. It's like saying the RB26 and 2JZ are ricer motors.

coz people want them - its a simple answer, supply and demand and dont ask "but why do they want them", people buy em for different reason, some for history, colour, etc.,

BT1's are the "holy grail" of VL Holdens. Everyone wants one, only a select amount of people own them. BT1's back in the day were what the VZ GTO is to current model owners...people want them but for whatever reason cant get their hands on one. They're just a rare car that not many people have the fortune of owning...luckily for me i have seen many fine examples of BT1's around Melb and if i could buy one i probably would. Calais25t you're an idiot for starting such a loaded thread in the first place. BT1's, Calais Turbo's, SL's....people will pay what they want to pay, whether its $1000 or $25,000. It all depends on the car for sale and the customers dire need to drive such a fine machine! Saying sh1t like "its not price v demand its lebanese/italian verses demand" is just going to have you booted off the site... Whack a "#05 of 500" badge on my glovebox and see how much my walky goes for....

u asked again? weve told u like 100000000000 times... THE MORE U PEOPLE WANT SOMETHING/THE MORE RARE IT IS... THE MORE THAT PEOPLE WILL CHARGE/PAY FOR IT... SIMPLE ! what ur really trying to ask maybe is "what do people like about BT1's"?, that would create a more peaceful discussion?

Its a personal choice to own a BT1... Its just like picking a Calais or Belina or even an SS or Lumina now...its all about what you like.

I know this is completely off the subject, but I showed the Calais and SL, to an American car forum and they loved them.
