For Sale: SL-C Superlite Coupe – cut-price supercar

Josh Bennis

Want supercar power and looks for cheap? Well, this SL-C Superlite Coupe we spotted on Australian eBay seems to tick all the right boxes when it comes to getting proper bang for your buck.

The car is hand-built by Race Car Replicas using all-new parts. Key components such as an aluminium semi-monocoque chassis, billet pushrod suspension, and LS7 7.0-litre V8 engine certainly sounds like a recipe for some serious smiles.

The seller of the car has written in the ad you can even service it with just your basic tools – try doing that to your newly purchased Lamborghini Aventador!

The ad also claims the V8-powered monster was built as a street and track day car. And that it can be certified for street use! Also says that it can be finished off with full interior trim and paint to make it more ‘road car’ like.

Priced at Aus $168,000, could this be the best value for money performance car for sale in Aus? Well, eBay anyway…
