I couldn't agree with you more, Imperials are undervalued and generally overlooked, the positive side of that is one can get one of these great cars for not a lot of coin.It would probably be around the mark if these cars were valued like other mopars.
You'd also expect a shiny engine bay.
Looks a lovely car.
You're absolutely right...there's nothing like it driving these monsters...the closest thing for me is the similarity to cruising in my pontoon. The front end is endless and driving them is highly addictive.$27,500, and the A/C doesn't work. He should have had the local "genius" mechanic he uses fix that before he asks for that kind of money. The bid is up to $12,800. On the positive side , I think it's a beauty. The interior looks great and I like the colors. I think a lot of people are intimidated by the sheer size of these coupes, about 230 inches long. For me, the bigger, the better. That massive grill and turn signals really announce your arrival. Nothing better than cruising down the road looking out over that long hood.
I feel bad for you guys down there, that's just insane to have to pay that much for an imported OLD car! I get shipping is a large chunk, but that's too much.saving lots of of $$$$ and shipping and inspection and registration and insurance could be around $9000nzd
I guess until you drive one...there's no way to explain it with words...it's serious...i'm selling three nice Chebbies because they don't come close in enjoyment.I bought mine for around $5000usd and so far another 2k I think. Fortunately there's not much to do - he says hopefully as the mechanics were going to pull the dash, so???
Should be here in Christchurch within 5 years depending on how long the mechanics take as "there's no hurry," saving lots of of $$$$ and shipping and inspection and registration and insurance could be around $9000nzd, but in the end I'll know the car is sorted. I agree with Doc, just amazing to drive.
Thanks and Wisconsin is dangerously close to me too.If I ever decided to sell, she'd probably go to Doc, a contrast to his red ones.
Think i'm gonna gold member 'bookmark' my first post.Yes, it is but I spent around $16,000aud shipping my aussie ford to/from the 2014 MCACN show.
I may sell and get a 1980 New Yorker instead but I'd be starting again with a mechanical check out.
No hurry either way, will consider later.
just sent you a private message.Think i'm gonna gold member 'bookmark' my first post.
