Default Someone wants $95 grand for an XAGT coupe.

Its on musclecarsales. http://www.australianmusclecarsales.com.au/muscle/87142
Reckons its good for 330Kw at the wheels! Is that possible? That's 442HP so it would need to be putting out over 500HP I gues so yeah its possible, Only visible mod in the engine bay is a big dizzy.

No way in the world the engine pictured has 330rwkw, must be the original before it was removed.

Missprint, it will be 330 RWHP. Or maybe 330 FWKW.

WORTH relates to personal value only.
Is it worth having your legs cut off? It is if keeping them will kill you.

My point is that WORTH is based purely on personal circumstance. For me, 95k for an XA is a bit rich but for a keen collector who wants an XAGT, it may be a great price and a steal.

Now, an XW/Y GT I'd pay 100k for (if I had the cash that is).

But once again, that's down to preference.

I look at a Ferrari and ask, "Is it worth the money?"
I say NO. I could get a shitload of Falcons for the same cost.

I rest my case.
