Nice car but bit overpriced i think.
Ive seen a black one somewhere but cant remember where for 26 and still i thought that one was also overpriced,but i guess they are rare cars so depends on what peeps want to pay for them. |

A bit expensive, but I think it is worth it. If I ad a choice between an XR6T and a T3TS50 at that price, I dont know which way Id go.

Looks pretty well priced for mine. I know of a TS that went cheap recently but I haven't seen any advertised very cheap at all. I'd buy that with a little discount.

I'd rather pay around 30k for a low k example than 24k for one with twice the amount of km's. If you want to belong in the 5.6 litre class whats 6 grand?
cheers Bill.

Yeah, if it is mint condition and all original I'd pay 30k. Dunno about the DVD screen though, and like jones aus pointed out, sounds a bit suss that no one has ever used the back seat.

The T series is SO DIFFERENT most don't pick it.
Subtlety does that. By the time time you add the obvious then add fat tailshafts, braided brake line and dozens of other variance you cannot build a 'T; for the price. A body kit is jut the start Cheers. |

Look at those ****in red book values, the only that is good for is hangin on your toilet roll holder T3's are going for more then that. That blue T looks to be a gen car but im stupmed on the light grey steering wheel cover

Try and trade your car and see what you get offered. The Grey car would sell for low 20's, about spot on for what redbook say for private sale.

Hands up how many people on here, [Or anywere] have seen these things getting traded at car yards, & on sold as a second hand car?? Well ??? NOT MANY so weres the sales data!! Sales are driven by demand. Ford F%^&ed the Tseries from the start. & now this is the flow on effect. Put simply, know one knows what the hell a T series is... That red book is rubbish & most people know it. Its the car yards way of saying what your trade ins worth. Glasses Guide has them at a compleatly different price. So which one do you take notice of ?? Hmm [sales data again] These cars are worth every bit of 25Gs If a true one [not a fake]& new it would have been about $65000+ on the road. So 25000 for a 65000+ car is good in anyones books. What other car can you buy for 25Gs that will give the performance, excluciveness, & stand out in your face looks, a T3 does? NONE And dont say an XR6T or BAXR8 because they are great cars,, but simply not a match for a T3, for the resons I have already outlined. If anyone is interesrted in these cars go get one, for soon there will be none left on the market. You can beleive it or not. But its a very good buy..

I don't think it's too unreasonably priced. There have been other examples I've seen with higher k's and higher asking prices for them.
Sure with a little discount, you'll still come out smiling.
