Sadly our cars are never going to be seen as classics, even the red 83 Starion on Trade Me with a starting bid of $6000 is well over priced. I paid $3600 for my 83 with 68000 kms on the clock and I still think I paid too much.
But it is still amazing the interest that the car can generate at times.

Or should that be we were fast. Cool to see starions winning on a number of continents. Our cars have got to be the most underated classics from the eighties.

Pulled the Starion off the market. Gave it a tune the other day and took it out for a run. Decided I couldn't live without it.

In NZ cars are cheap and just about anyone can have a car with AWD and 200+kw. But I wanted something that was RWD fun to drive and just a bit different. I dont know why but the first thing that came to mind was a Starion. I looked on trade me and by the next morning I owned one. I didn't buy a Star...
