Been looking at things I really can't afford and came across this.

http://www.trademe.co.nz/Trade-Me-Motors/Cars/Chevrolet/Camaro/auction-251511748.htm

I cannot see how this warrants its price...correct me if I am wrong however...

"It is the epitome of a 70's supercar with the class and refinement of 2009 technology"

What a delusional fuckwit. I think the bank called, and it's either the p.o.s. Camaro or the over-mortgaged house.

Ahahah is that one of those shitty Repco monster tachs that you see on rice'd 323s?

I can't fucking help myself. I found another gem: "Automatic which is manually changed not unlike a Ferrari just built with high performance launch system."

Well I'd buy a car off someone with such an awesome grasp of automotive technology, who wouldn't?

And im pretty certain to run something that quick on the strip you'd need a rollcage? I thought if you aimed for under 12s you required one...

I wonder how long it will be before it rips its gear box or drive train apart.

It's like he's trying to selling the family wagon.
Mind you a "neck breaking 10 second quarter mile" will get you to pak'nslave pretty quick + it has a Period Cassette ? & freshly built motor (thats done some neck breaking).

win / win tbh

The last I heard the fastest road-legal car in NZ was Reece Fish's twin turbo'd 56 Chevy, and that runs somewhere in the low eights.

Check it out.

And his times are here for all to see.

There's a Ferrari Enzo next door to my parent's place in Parnell.

I don't know that the Enzo would be a particularly good drag racer (650HP mid-engined V12 notwithstanding) but I'm sure that it's a faster road car than that Camaro.

Probably the Mrs has said sell it so instead of saying no he's put it up at a rediculous price. I mean you could get a nice GT350H or a SS/RS for about a quarter of the price if you really wanted a quick unusual yank tank. 10 is possible but it'd need more mods.

Imagine what he would want if it had a steering wheel worth more than 50 buks at repco...not really fitting for a classic?

And for that money, I hope it does wheelies Mister!

yeah, a manualy changed auto trans is very different to an electrohydraulic manual transmission found on a ferrari. For that money you'd have the luxury of chosing also.

he's posibly going through divorce proceedings and has been ordered to sell the car. chucking a stupid price on it is a way of dragging the chain.
