To be fair most of that are probably in worse nick or lower performance than the Nova, but I doubt I'd spend 7k on it either, I'd be looking at an s2000 with 4k to spend on parts, or a very well sorted skyline for that money.... or that Manta A project I've been wanting for years lol

Had a Evo 4 with bout 350 horse and was a serious car beast on petrol tho but a well properly sorted car and was all for a lot less than that car is

worth a bit...but not that much...but then again, if someone is willing to spend that much on it good luck!

for 7k i would by my cav turbo...and be a happy bunny :)

Good spec and I couldn't build one for that as I'm a office boy, worth it tbh.

Im sure you will agree with me when I say just about everything on your list their will cost a hell of a lot more to maintain,insure and enjoy Mike! But we all have our own opinion and given the choice I guess we would all spend our cash differently. A little more of my take on it is here in the original thread..............

Without a shadow of a doubt definetly true, but seriously, shelling out seven large on a Nova :S youd have to be off your head on crack to even contemplate doing that :S

And its not as if its going to significantly go up in value over time as Novas, and GM on a whole dont have the childhood dream appeal compared to 80's Fords, they will never ever demand the same kinda money as RS 1600i's for example.
