i am trying to post some photos but it don,t want to work! i think for what it is and how much fun it is it would have to be around the 23000 mark. i could be wrong but to me i think it is good value for that sort of money.

I know this car well and the work that has been to get it where it is. If you were to build it your self with triale and error it would cost a lot more than $23,000 it is a genuine ESP XE FALCON and it does have 440rwhp last dyno but feels stronger after some electrical changes and may have more to give. Belive me when I say that this thing is scary, last dyno posted a top speed of roughly 215kph but its not how fast u can go but how quick u can get there and this thing is a wepon. The owner is not into drag race the car has been built for track although first drag meet at EASTERN CREEK gave best inexperianced time of 12.8 quater. By that I mean the driver has never raced drag before he`s a track nut.

Well he has decided to sell unfotunatley but due to a minor engine brake down or modification of the internals (3piece crank, 4piece cam, 2 bent conrods and a broken piston) the car will now be fitted with a new engine before its sold and still at around the 23k price. I`m assured that the new motor will be atleast as strong if not stronger than the last, nothing is being used again everything will be new.

I know the car, I saw it the night he brought it down for the WSID street meets back in june or july last year. This thing is awesome and that is very good dollars for what you get. Pity i just spent so much on mine, as i wouldnt mind that little toy

As said earlier the car has been built to have fun on the track or the ocasional open road and thats where it really comes to life. I cant wait to see what the new motor is going to do he cant himsef he`s power crazed.

the engine rebuild is going cost around 5to6k he`s decided to sell for 16k open to offers remembering sespension and rest of drive line, still a bargain all you knead is the engine and it`s getting close to the thirty collectable mark. Little out lay for big returns, last of the real v8`s
missed the words thirty year collectable mark sorry for the edit
