Up to $300,000 for a GTSR W1

As in the story in the link. Will someone really pay $300,000 or more for a GTSR W1 ???

I remember reading posts about when the pricing was first announced that people thought the $200,000 on-road was to much.
Are there really buyers out there willing to pay this much??

Thoughts ???

Comes with a super special VIN # 00000000000000000 too.....:lmao:

Only as much as someone is willing to pay.

Surely it's illegal to sell something you don't have possession over? When you you actually own the car?

FWIW I don't care either way, just want to know how...

:lmao:

I wouldn't be surprised if someone coughed up the coin for that..

Just because I can't afford it doesn't mean it isn't chump change for someone else.

Yeah Luke reckon you should buy it! :cool:

Will be a nice car to own if I had the coin laying around to be able to afford it..
But at the original list price.. Not at the inflated prices they look to be going for

:yup: A fool and his money are soon parted. If someone is willing pay $80 000+ for a 186 powerglide HK GTS, anything's possible.

Yeah, I saw a bloke pay around $80,000 for a poo/goldy brown coloured HK 186 powerglide GTS a couple of years ago:spew:

The wanker was even beating himself off because it had original hub caps! :jerk::jerk::jerk:

Hard to imagine a slower or more boring POS to drive. :doh:

HA - my days of wasteful spending are over. If I had $300K to waste/invest (depending on your point of view) I wouldn't be buying a W1.. I like the car and think it a feat that HSV even did it, but no racing pedigree for me so not on my bucket list.

I've seen people asking $20K plus for XD Falcons.. that were originally 6 bangers. full of rust. Don't even get me started on VL Commodores.. still good luck to them I guess if it makes them happy. I'm probably just bitter as if I kept every car I've owed and sold it now I wouldn't need to work anymore.

In 20 years time somebody might look at this thread & wish they had a time machine
so they could go back to 2017 & snap up a bargain. :idea::hide:
