I think the AU XR's, being the last of the true XR's, will pick up......While it's true the AU's are ageing, the AU XR8 was the equivalent of a B series GT in terms of sporty appeal in its era..It was the top of the line in the AU model line up...and the only AU that had that "wow I want one" factor.
If I were you I'd keep it, store it, and in 10 years time you may get $30-40k. While BA XR's have come down in price, they don't have that same appeal factor among the B series range being as common as a whore in the Cross...No disrespect, but compared to the XR's from EB through to AU the BA XR doesn't hold a candle. Crikey if I had a spare garage I'd even buy it...Is it Silhouette or Blueprint? EB to AU XR8's will be the next white collar, mid life crisis performance car..like 70's GT's are right now...mark my words. That's after the XE ESP has had its day in the sun of course. The guy I use for detailing drives a black AU XR8 and he wants to buy a B series FPV...I talked him out of it...His car will be an icon Edit...Just looked at your pics...Too nice to let go for $15k...Keep it !!
