How much is your pride and joy worth?

Now like most of you, I wouldn't sell my Maxima. But with all the time and money you've spent on your Maxima, how much do you estimate your Maxima is worth?

whatever kbb says a 99 se 5spd w/ 82k miles on it is worth. Mods do nothing to the price. when i traded in my last car for the maxima they didn't take off for mods but they didn't add anything either. And that iincludes a much better system than stock

'97 Deep Evergreen Maxima GLE - 120,xxx miles.

Paid $5,000 in December '04, when it was valued at $5,700, with 117,xxx miles. I've done a few minor mods to it, but I'm sure I can get $5,000 for it if I wanted to.

95SE (5-speed, limited-slip) 57,688 mostly highway miles, one-owner, loaded, mint, virtually no mods - FSTB, K&N panel filter, Budget Y-pipe. Diamond coated, leather protected and rustproofed before delivered, professionally detailed annually. Paid Cdn$35,000 new. Prices are considerably higher in Canada than in the US. Worth more to me than anyone else. Not sure what its worth in the US. Only reason to sell would be to buy a 2003 Maxima (no 6th Gen for me - not now, not ever!).

I'd be lucky to get 5-6k if i were to sell it(96 SE w/135K), but since its paid off thats not going to happen. I would get a transporter & dump mad cash into the motor & trans, & a massive turbo of course! Or demote it to daily driver if I could afford something turbo awd(skyline gt-r R33 or better)after the max was modded to my vision of what it should be!

Worth it not to sell unless someone offered real good for it. That most likely won't happen so when I pay it off, I'm going boosted. After it's boosted I want at least $7000.(3 years from now)

My maxima is worth more than any car I could possibly get, why sell something you've put so much work into?

I would not sell mine. it took me awhile to find a Black 5 speed SE. The money I could get for it would not get me a car that I wanted. I don't want to make payments on a car. SO am going to ride this baby until it falls apart on me.

$39,876.



Oh...you mean my Maxima?? Well I paid $8000 for it back in the beginning of 03 and with the mods ive done I would say I could prolly get around the same price if not a lil more selling it to a person. I have a feeling the price will drop off real soon though because of all the miles.....124XXX -_-

I would never sell it though, unless I won the lotto. This is my first car and I will drive it into the ground before I ever sell it.

i'd probably get 6 for mine now, but the 118XXX miles is a turn off to people. i paid 5700 for the car with 97XXX, and put like $3k+ into it, with mods, and maintenance crap, so it wouldnt be worth it to me. i'll keep it forever. when i graduate college, it will probably be a daily driver, or a track car, cuz then im looking at an 00-01 Audi S4 2.7TT

NEVAH~! i've wanted the new 4th gen styled max ever since I've seen it with clear taillights and front corners on superblack. There's an elegance, yet aggressiveness to the styling and it's my dream car. most people want their porsches and aston martins. i'm content with my maxima. I'll drive it until cars with tires become banned. even then I'll have a 4th gen body molded to my hovercraft.
