5400$ aint bad for a NA? thats a price of a turbo is it not
0 likes
did you open the links that were in my last post? most clean n/a calais' are advertised for well over $7000.... so no, $5400 isnt bad for a n/a calais... obviously the originality and condition of the car have alot to do with the price and im sure you could even pick up a turbo calais for $5000.... but clean, original vl calais' are getting harder and harder to find, and in turn are clearly becoming more expensive

$54,990.00!!!!!!!!!!!!! LOLL ok ok ok nah thats a good price.. i understand where he is coming from... $4,900 for the vl... and $50,000 FOR DUEL FUEL!!!!!!!!!!!! oh my god!!!! DUEL FUEL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I WANT IT SO BAD IM GONNA BID UPTO 100K!!!! LOLL wat an idiot

for starters it's probably a typo. second its a V8 auto with nigh 300 thousand km's. it has silver sideskirts and a le front grille so has obviously been modded. 5g is not to much for an original vlc on gas but when you add that it has been modded then value decreases. also note its not an n/a 6 but a v8. also there is the added security that is is a delaership car. and for a dealership car (not sold 'as is') it is also r/w and has rego, there is the added security if something does go wrong and if they are a good yard they have probably gone to the trouble to touch up any marks / broken plastics. dealer cars will always be more than personal sales. - Mitch
