Or is it nothing special?

Yeah they're ok, one of the first HSV made. Would be alright car, wouldn't be the quickest cars around (manual atmo VL would be just as quick), with some work and a fuel injested head they could become quite a nice car.

for the price of a sv88 id rather a brocky personally ;)

Or something thats not so old. For the money man you could get something thats a bit newer.

I have only seen 2 in the flesh, and......... I WANT 1, NOW! They look so classy and neat. Depends on how much $ but yeah I would consider it. Cheers kingyvl

The SV88 was the first official HSV model with 150 built in two tone blue. 136KW auto and options included a mobile phone and a fax machine. I have seen one with the FAX machine. Don't know if they can still be used by connecting to a digital mobile mobile though. Corsa

what are they worth (how much should i be paying)? and does the 88 part mean they were built in 1988?!?!? brockies r too expensive i rekon.

ive seen them in adelaide go 4 about 12-13k

Yeah the 88 means it was made in 1988. HSV continued the numbering sequence for a while before dropping it then revived it once more. VN SV89, VQ SV90, VP SV91, VQS2 SV93 and the last was the SV99. Price for an SV88 will very depending upon condition and kms. Maybe $10-25,000. Corsa

thanks u r a vl genious. yeah i was hoping under 15, over that and its just not worth it (in my opinion). u reckon its asking too much to expect one to have never been smashed up? thanks.
