Regarding the old Celsiors.... has anyone ever seen a manual Celsior before? With a W58...
Would anyone think there would be a premium to buy one with a 5 speed manual box?
Also Supercharged Celsiors/LS400's what seems to be the resale of one of those? I'm sure there would be a lot of interest in that being that Celsior may be old, but are better overall than buying a newer similar priced SS or XR8, accept not so much with lack the power compared to them, but with a S/C would quickly be a pick for many with 250kw over the so so 200kw.
Any real life experiences?

I bought my Celsior for 9 but it cam with a few extras and everything working perfectly etc..
The fact is mods don't add value. I had an SS commodore that I bought for 9k added 20s, big brakes, exhaust, tint, new interior, new stereo and sold it 2-3 years later for 6.5k
I think a really nice clean supercharged Celsior would be lucky to get 10-11k for. You'd be better off selling the kit separately and selling the car stock.

A good Celsior would go for $10,000.
A good celsior will go for about 7.5.
A really good celsior with all the undercarriage work done, like UCA and LCA bushes, rack bushes, and recently replaced (say in the last 48 months) AC, Alt, PS pump, engine mounts and trans mounts, is something Id pay 10-11k for, would need to be able to prove it though.
