That's the one mate.

If I remember corretly, The only factory option for it was engine bluprinting which nudges it over the $100k mark

For that coin I'd rather buy a CLK 63 AMG, if it wasn't fpr the bullsh*t taxes we pay on imported cars you could have a CLK black series here for that.

It costs more than a C63 AMG. What sort of retarded bogan would buy it over one of them, especially when the front end makes it look like a wombat.

Best comment so far!

OK firstly I have to say I don't like the look of it at all. I wouldn't buy that if you paid me . . . . .

In saying this though if this thing had a couple of ford badges and a gtho badge I would've ordered one already (if I could afford that kind of cash). I can see why these will sell as honestly if Ford had a 7 litre 500 hp GTHO and I had a bit of coin I really wouldn't care how much it was I would be buying one no questions asked.

So if an overpriced 150K aussie taxi had ford and GTHO badges, you would buy it if you had more money than you know what to do with?

Hows that different from a one eyed Expensive Daewoo fan who's grown up with posters of brock and VL commodores adorning their walls!

I don't really get what you mean here but I was saying that I understand why a Expensive Daewoo bloke would buy one of these. . . . .

ridiculously priced and looks crap.id still go a 25psi ba-fg any day of the week.save myself $100,000+ and absolutely piss all over it.you would have to buy that then add $20,000+ for s/charger or twin turbo to compete with a well sorted t.not to mention the amount of $1.70 premium it would drink.two things I do like about it-dry sump-interior.

Although it's a Expensive Daewoo and it's a hell of a lot of money, providing the owners look after their cars, in a few years it may be worth over $200k, any 6T with a heap of money spent on it will only be worth 10-20 K
