I'd love to snag a slantback and with only 20k on it, too. I'll get the woman on it ASAP.

I wonder what the reserve is....

I don't know, but I'd hate to have a manual tranny H1

$47,501... meh. $42K maybe.

[NewHummerGuy]

Oh, so this isnt really even an "original" slantback??? I thought it was.

My bad. Guess "It is one of ONLY 39 manufactured in the world!!!! " is a bit misleading


Sorry all for the confusion.

FWIW I've seen '03's sell for low 50's of late, and the occasional '04 drop below 60, which makes for much better value in my book.

DAMN

'04 below $60K??? That's too bad. Over 50% depreciation in 2 years.

No, it's a factory slantback. Notice how the tailgate piece is integrated into the hatch?




The Calgold models use the existing tailgate from the truck.

[NewHummerGuy]

Whoops.....

I thought Phil was saying it was a CalGold one.

My bad again. But dont listen to me. I cant even post pics of my powder coated rims

[NewHummerGuy]

WOW, KBB only gives a private party value in excelent condition of $44.8K.

Guess that doesnt take into account the rareness of the vehicle though.

[BlueHUMMERH2]

I think Phil was just using the Calgold as an example since it's very similar in design. But I'll give you credit for at least thinking it was a factory slant at first.

I don't know how valuable they will stay/become. There has to be a market in which they are coveted in order for the value to be there. I'm not sure how big that market is or will become.

CP, please let Ken buy it. That truck is the ying to my yang. And Ken make sure that the oil filter housing does not leak oil like my engine does. I mean did.

[ssgharkness020147]

If my memory serves me correctly California Gold manufactured AMG's factory SB shells.

If someone can figure where in Fairfax it is, I will go by and look at it for Ken. I fly into DC in the morning of the 21st. I have a home in Fairfax and will take pics and post.

[KenP]

Well, the wife was on here a while ago and didn't mention this or post up, so I guess she's not interested.

I think the slantback has more potential in the long term for resale because of the rarity, which means I wouldn't wheel one personally. I'd just let it out on the nice days and hope for some appreciation in the future. Sad I know... Actually, pretty pitifull.
