Title: Tell him he's dreamin'
Post by: poohbah on August 12, 2018, 10:55:58 AM
Now I love 156 GTAs as much as the next guy, but $40k for an unregistered one? Especially when there are four other licensed ones available for half that or less?

It's a minter, though.

(I note minter was autocorrected by my phone to "massive disappointment"!)

Hope it fetches a good price. Ticks many of the right boxes, one prior owner to dealer, biggest motor, classic combination of colour/trim and final iteration of the first version of this model.

It's the old adage isn't it, you don't ask and you don't get.  :o

Someone might come along and pay the money for that car although I doubt it will be one of us. :

Anyone else notice the much rarer car in the background?  :D

From the pictures its as good a GTA as I've ever seen.  Looks very original - thats what people are paying for.
However the Delta Integrale can come and live in my garage any time it likes!

So where is this place?  Is it a dealer, or an amazing private collection??

Advertisement states 156 has only clocked up 31000 kilometres on it, maybe that is a major factor why he has put it at that price, if you search Carsales 156s and put the view mode in price high to low, the 156 GTAs go down in price as the kilometres go up.
