adding all the cost it would have been far cheaper to buy a holden suburban..

This vehicle was purchased secondhand, it only has 300miles on it. Has an airbox, full stainless exhaust and tuning software.

Think I'd buy the W427 rather than import something.

300rwkw with full factory warranty kind of appeals to me!

NZ has different import rules to oz, I think they don't pay much if any at all of import tax. W427 is nice but how can you go past a GT500 if your a Ford fan, I'll take a super snake please..... :

I'd be taking a black texta to the headrests and centre console. Could they make it look any more tacky?

Well if it wasn't the RTA I would be surprised.

Don't think it would actually cost that much to retrim the headrests and console lid, just small details in an overall picture, what a wicked car.
