What's It Worth

**TMF** · 03-27-2006, 11:21 AM

What's a 2000 TA, with 65000 miles on it worth? The car is perfect, with some nice bolt-ons. The guy's had it since new and has taken very good care of it. Everything ever done to the car has been documented. Seem's like a nice pick.

Check NADA too, they usually book higher than Kelley. Plus most banking/lending insitutions use NADA.

I just cruised thru a bunch of national used car sites, and it looks like the average asking price for a similar car is around 17000

It even adjusts for your location. I used zipcode 80439.

A Z28 in NYC costs more than one in Little Rock.

Nah, just ticked that the person with the less accurate info was thanked and the one with the more accurate info wasn't!

BIGRED Z · 03-28-2006, 08:54 PM

Hey it's your lie, tell it how you want.

I still feel it.

That kinda stuff really sticks in yer crawl don't it?

**TMF** · 03-29-2006, 04:40 AM

OK, I appreciate all the info posted. Next question: do bolt-ons add to, or take away from the price ?

**BillyT** · 03-29-2006, 08:09 AM

I think bolt ons add value only for a true gear head who cares to have them but technically all mods decrease the actual market value of the car I believe.

Yea, I agree with that. Also the type, brand and installation quality can make a diff.

agreed
it may matter to you as a buyer but you should use it to get a lower price by whining like a little b!tch about reliability issues, worse gas mileage and so on...
