Brett, looks sharp .

Is it the "C" Spec, with the "F" package?

Hi Don and thanks, no it isn't the F package. Car was so clean and in good condition that I sacrificed the leather and F package to get this one.

Doh!.....stupid me, you had put C-spec in your post .

Brett to be honest, I think that's the pick of the bunch.

I've had a look at a few Celsiors, and once you get over the "Gee-whiz" factor of the "F" rear "Vibro" seat, and the stereo & A/C controls, it's pretty much...Like, who cares!.
The reality is ya drive em from the front (And who cares about the back seat passengers anyway ).

As for the leather, I can take it or leave it.
For MYSELF, I prefer the cloth trim, more supportive, warmer and less maintenance to keep in pristine condition.

So to sum up, to ME, with a "C" spec, you're getting more than enough "Twiddly Bits" to keep ALL but the crazed gadget freak owner happy, without all the additional complexity (And weight penalty!) that an "F" package brings.

Damn fine choice, well done

Adam, I don't remember saying the wheels were rare, this style of wheel is a popular mod in Japan for the Celsior.
Those wheels look better than mine, they have a trendy row of "rivets" going around the rim.
Mercedes Benz also had a factory wheel in the 90s of a similar style on their saloons.
Who's car is your pic of, if it's yours please post some more pics?
Talking about rare, how rare is the colour green (not)? Amazing how many Celsiors were green.....

Brett, funny you should say that about the wheels.
In MY opinion your wheels look "Cleaner" without the rivets, and more "Refined", as befits the car

Your car looks great Blair.
Did you change the headlight globes or are they standard (they look brighter than standard)?
Did you add the screen on the roof?

Thanks Brett, The headlights are aftermarket HID's which were already fitted when I purchased the car(from Japan), the screen was also their in the rear seat but nothing connected to it, I think it had a DVD player but got stolen somewhere along the importation process , this is the original ad for the car I bought and you can see another screen in the front which is also gone, not sure if it was the factory or not.

None of the UCF10's and 11's came standard with a TV. IF they have one it has been added as an after market item.

My Celsior is finally on the road.
Took a few pics this morning.

I am very pleased with the great service I received from Danny at Imports 101 (Perth) with the compliancing and general items like registration and installation of a car alarm.

The car is great to drive, love the power of the V8 and how quite it is inside. The fuel economy has also impressed, two tanks returning 10.46 and 12.18 l/100kms.

The main issues with the car are: the front lower ball joints are worn, I am getting these replaced on Friday at Wilkinsons Suspension along with the steering rack and lower arm bushes. Also replacing the front air struts as these are extremely soft. Will replace the rear struts when I save another $1400

I would like to have a little bit more V8 "burble", what do you guys recommend I should do to achieve a bit more noise?
