2007 Holden Calais V VE — Immaculate L98 — Fresh Rebuilt Engine & Trans
*401 HP at rear wheels*
Chassis has done 141,000 km, but the mechanical heart of this car is practically fresh. The engine was fully rebuilt 66,000 km ago, and the transmission was rebuilt just 41,000 km ago. I have owned the vehicle for 5 years and have only driven it 4,000 km in that time—it has spent its life fastidiously garaged, polished, and waxed.
This is a completely sorted, turn-key executive muscle car.
The replacement cost to build a VE to this mechanical and cosmetic standard today is well over $40,000.
