Ford Falcon Sprints are getting pricey, driven by optimistic private sellers hoping someone will fork out over more than double the original price.
Bringing them undone, however, are realistic people deciding to advertise theirs for around (or barely over) the original asking prices – $54,990 for an XR6, $53,490 for a manual XR8, or $55,690 for an XR8 in auto.
Coffey Ford in Dandenong, Victoria, is helping this (sensible) trend along by advertising an XR6 Sprint for just $52,095, less than when they were new.
It also means there is plenty of mileage still yet to be enjoyed. It’s also painted ‘Winter White’, which with the black trim gives off a ‘Stormtrooper’ vibe.
The only thing in the advertisement that may need some explaining is the listed engine capacity – 51990000cc.
Cars that have been held onto as investments have started popping up too, with a few examples currently for sale with six-figures on the asking price.
All XR8s, the three we found are selling for $125K, $115K, and $100K with 25km, 65km and 2,000km on their respective odometers.
Their engines are probably in better shape for proper driving, too.
If you miss out on the one at Coffey, we also found two on TradeUniqueCars.com.au. One for $75K and one for $60K.
