Time to say good bye…. How much should I ask for my Max?

Well… this car has such fond memory it’s hard to let it go.
My father purchased this car for me as a gift and I drove this car for the last 12 yrs...
He always showed me how to take care of this car properly, and I really took good care of this car… no accident and oil changed every 2k.
Here’s the spec:

1996 Maxima SE 5-speed deep green color. 10,900 miles.
Tan interior and front seats are covered with seat cover since day one... seat looks brand new when I removed the cover to examine.
Pretty much stock…
Car is in truly excellent conditions… hate to let it go but getting old and got tired of driving stick shift.
How much should I ask for it? Any good source to advertise it?
Thanks in advance…. Also I would like to take this opportunity to thank each of you guys for your great tips and knowledge.

Holy shnikeys!!! , 10,900 miles





You didn't drive it for the past 12 years, you had it parked and drove it just over 900 miles per year.

I get more than that in a month.

I'm guessing the said mileage is a typo

i'm betting on 109,000 as well. check his sig.

if it's in great condition, might be able to get around $4k? depends on the market in the area.

try craigslist in your area, ebay for local delivery only (personally i wouldn't deal with a delivery on a car), or your paper.

Depends on the options. But if it's loaded and in as great a condition as you describe then I say you $5500-$6000.

$4500 for a 96? huh? what planet are you guys from? If you find some retard who just moved here from iceland or something and tell him it's a bentley, you might get $4500. If you get anything over $3000, you're a lucky man...
