Well, my 93 SXP II was $11,653 8 months ago, and it only had a bullbar, steps, towbar and alloys, other than than, was totally stock, mine only had 98000 kms on it though. Was immaculate when I picked it up. They can really hold their value... Go the Feroza..!! Mine basically looks like your one Em.

hmmmm.... paid $3800 for mine u.s. with 89 k miles on the clock, bone stock! not in the best conditition though sadly... but that was 2 and a half years ago... since then i've poured some serious money into it... if i could get the interior fixed up a bit, i figure i could sell for $6000 as it stands. but i want MORE mods done to it!

A late model (eg '97) wide track with low km's could go for those sort of prices- but this is an early '90s narrow track!!!
Mine (same model) in excellent condition was around half that price nearly two years ago....

I just can't believe the variance in prices, I have seen the crazy $18000 price tag, but the same car (or very similar) can go for as low as $3000.
There is one there this week for $3000 (1990 Model).
Just a qstn..
Should an Auto in a Feroza cost a bomb, as it is a rare item...

Autos and small 4cyl engines generally don't go too well together... There's been an auto one for sale in Adelaide for quite a while now. They may be dearer because IIRC the auto option was only in the later models.
