Paikia_rav Neutral Newbie November 27, 2006 Share November 27, 2006 I believe $64999 is after rebate? Garage R still have 2 left if I am not wrong, 1 sliver and 1 maroon. 1st on the road is a yellow one. Retail price is around $73k. BHP and another PI cant remember which one is also bringing in but BHP one is slightly more ex at $75K if I am not wrong. Saw the car in the flesh as a friend just bought one from Garage R. Picture looks nicer though. The overfenders looks out of place and frankly it doesn't look 'fierce' enough unless u looking for a slient killer. Engine is tight and dun expect the red piping and hoses, only the cam cover is sprayed red. Tiny little snail though power to weight ratio it'll still be fast. At this price, u must really love the car else why not just get a rex at couple thousands more? ↡ Advertisement Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slonez Clutched November 28, 2006 Share November 28, 2006 The Rex is a few k more but the petrol, road tax & insurance all adds up to a substantial sum per year. Saw on Colt forum some guys got around 180HP (wheels) with just exhaust, air intake & unichip. I'm sure those with more extreme mods can maybe squeeze out 200HP+ out of it. But I love the boxer sound too..... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dlar2 Neutral Newbie November 28, 2006 Author Share November 28, 2006 The price is from the newspaper review in the sillytimes lifeless section. $64999. I prefer to be a silent killer than driving a Rex. No offence to Rex owners but just my preference. By the way, my dream car is a Legacy GT , also silent killer, not flashy but also cannot be easily builled. Now it had grown to 2.5L with SI drive Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
