think you know yourself John you'll always make more money breaking it, takes a die hard enthusiast to pay top money for a calibra these days
BETTER TO HAVE A CALIBRA AND NOT NEED ONE, THAN NEED A CALIBRA AND NOT HAVE ONE!!!

Shame , sounds like alot of work was done there! Would make a decent car in the right hands.
Sad if it gets ripped apart!

No plans to rip it apart,really want to have a track car project, was considering selling some of my toys to free up cash. This calibra drew the short straw as DTM is too rare and I've had the ceramic one for ages.

May not be 100% selling,was gauging opinions
