Yeah, pretty good price for a V6 with fairly low Ks, body looks in good nick too. I personlly would prefer manual, autos have more problems, but then again auto usually costs more, so that makes the price even more acceptable. And it's got a decent amount of rego left.

hard shifting, slipping on shifts, complete failures, and they use heaps more fuel than the same car with a manual. that sort of thing :D

Well I bought it :D

I offered him 4,400 as there were a few things wrong with the car, nothing to major though

Thanks for your help guys.

Tecadan is the exhaust you have worth the money? is there a noticable power increase?

lol! in my opinion the $300 hasn't justified in the performance increase, if there was even any in the first place.

I'm not saying its a bad system, but I think the EFI Astrons have some sort of modding disability, or maybe I just havnt spent enough money on other performance mods...

I'm tempted to remove the muffler actually, it has a really good note that i so like to give it a bit of punch every minute im in the car, but because of that my fuel economy has gone way down....
