Exactly. That car is well and truely overprices IMO.


Yeah but it's straight, had everything done to it, to do all that and get it up to that standard like it is now would probably cost you something not far off that and there's been alot of time and effort gone in to it obviously.

So you are saying that if a car has a different conversion that you havent seen before than its worth 20,000 ? not knocking build quality or workmanship or anything , but a car is only worth so much , no matter how much you spend on it , its a case of trying to get back everything and more that you spend on it , nice car , but not worth 20,000 :?

Not worth it in your eyes, he's selling it for what he think's it's worth and if he gets what he's asking good for him.
It's like people spending 10k plus on a standard AE86, i mean they only have a 1600cc no turbo motor in them, back in my day if you paid over 1k for one you got ripped off, we used to thrash them and trash them cause they werent worth a pinch of shitte, same with old RX2's and 3's. now look what people are asking for them

Free plug for this guy. He has done my guard rolling twice. One on my current and x-cars. He does airbag installs and I saw this in his driveway. He started it up to move it and it grunted real hard. Thought it was a heavily cammed V8 when I asked him what was in there!!! Obviously I was wrong. Very wrong.....

Ezygee performance is his company, and he is out west. I think its his missus advertising the car.

This car is a awesome representation of quality workmanship and is a absolute credit to the owner. No shortcuts were taken and I bet alot of money and time was pumped into this car.
We supplied/installed & tuned the Link ecu system on this car and I was nothing less than very impressed with everything on the car.
There are so many things about this car that are major cool, but like everything- different people like different things.

I like it. In my eyes someone will be buying a wellbuilt unique car that will last.
