    How many VR6s in Aus?

    Nige's beautiful green Storm

    Red one on Ebay

    Another Green one apparently kicking around?

    Anyone know of others?

    Not sure mate, the Green one is owned by G60JAY also though, it's an SLC (American with 2.8l VR6). He's also got one with AWD that was going to have a 24VT in it, not sure if it ever got finished.

    They're the only VR's i know of in Australia

    Carl there was one that wasn't registered I think came from Japan. Pretty sure Pete Shelley went to see it and made the guy an offer that wasn't accepted? Loon may remember/have seen it too.

    The funny thing was the seller claimed it was owned by Jamiroquai

    I don't think it was from Japan, not sure, but yeah it was a LHD. Jay converted it to RHD and had it on the road. Saw him in 2009 i think, he still had it on the road then. Johnny's G60 was also Jay's.
