Talking Price Check

hey all,

i just laid my eyes on a XB Falcon 500 sedan and was wondering how much you would pay for it..... :

specs:
6cyl (not sure size)
column shift auto
mint interior
mint paint
no rust
funny colour green with a white painted roof
front bench seat
dual exhaust (not sure about it being a six as i was only talkin to his missus)
only down side is there is a slight dint in bootlid from a tree brunch that fell during cyclone larry :yeees:

and yeh thats about it....so any estimations would be great :

If it were really neat I'd stretch to $2000 maybe. It would have to be good but...

If it's that one on ebay a while back, he wanted like $14,000 for it.

Dreamer!

Cheers,

lol. 14k.

Its a 6 so it wont get much. Even if it is mint. Probably 5-7k max if its absolute mint I reckon. Otherwise, pick pick pick and drive it down in price.

About $5000 sounds about the max I would pay. Without pics it is hard to tell though.

faaark, $7500!!!! I got this original XB GT with zero rust for $3000 3 years ago. If a 6 banger XB with panel damage is worth that much then what would my GT be worth I wonder...
