Thread: which EJ8

  1. #1

    which EJ8

    1. Silver 96' VTi 57,000 KMs. Lady driver - $9200
    *Bone Stock
    *Service history/Books.
    *Only one owner
    2. Maroon 98' VTi 160,000KMs. Lady owner - $8,990
    *Lip kit, front and rear
    *Second owner
    *Serviced regularly(logbooks)

    Just from that which one would you pick, i would go for 2. if it wasn't maroon. I'm not such a big fan of maroon, don't like the color.. Though it could grow on me, but i don't want to take the risk. I haven't inspected any yet, going on Sunday. Lets just say there are both equal mechanically. I like silver, and it has low KMs.

    The only reason i might get 2. is cause of the lip kit, but then again, I should just buy a lip kit for the silver one two, but i just can't find the rear lip thats all.

    silver. sounds soo dodgy tho <10,000kms a year? its pretty good if its true. lip kits arnt that expensive, id rather have a healthy engine than cosmetic mods.

    Inspect both

    If the silver one is genuin k's and not wound back then its win and id go for it

    if not the maroon is somewhat more appealing due to the log book

    Though once again Healthy Engine>Appearance

    :edit: In relation to mr crex's post in the whole year i have been driving my car i have put well OVER 100,000k's on it

    i 2nd that.

    silver. healthy engine, presuming its not thrashed.
    could be a fully sick lady driver. lol, never know :P

    and when u put a lip kit on it, you'll probablyt be able to re sell it the same price u bought depending on how many kms u add onto it.

    bilzz I average <5000km a year on the monaro... and its all logged.
    if it's a 2nd car that doesnt get driven often then <10,000km is easily maintained

    I would go with 1, lower k's, only owner. You can always get a kit yourself. I reckon its worth the extra 220, which is a bargain considering the milage difference.

    Ah they both have log books. Guess so, i think I'll go for silver, i was going to get it in the first place, just wasn't to sure though. Yeah I'll have to inspect both to make my mind up. Though i just feel like going to go and see the silver one with my mechanic and making my mind up from there and see how it goes so (not inspecting the maroon one), that should be good ay lol. anyways again thanks for the opinions appreciate it

    Also, I've emailed her and had a talk to her, she doesn't sound fully sick, she is, i assume, of mature age. Lol,. (silver one)

    Silver One.

    1. wayyyyyy lower kms
    2. 1 owner - Lady Owner (assuming shes old and doesnt thrash it)
    3. Check both log books and see how often both cars have been serviced and if majors are done for healthy engine
