that's a GREAT price, it has t.v.'s and you're only selling for 8500?! I have GLE wit stuff on it but 110,000 miles and I would sell for 8,000 to 8,500....but i got leather and all that good stuff....you have cloth i suppose and no sunroof, and not the premium sound....but t.v.'s make a good difference and you have low mileage. If i was you, i would say 9,000 and just work down from there....you have good mileage and t.v.'s 8500 to 9000 is a good price

Considering that most of your mods are cosmetic they're things that the person who's buying the car should appreciate (since, after all, he wants to buy the car even with those fugly altezza's ). Plus you've got TV's, which are functional, so...

Don't sell it for $8500. Especially if you're going to use this money as a down payment on a 2k2. Push for $10,000 and see what he thinks, but don't sell for less than $9000.

Add up all the "mod" money you've put into it, add that to the reasonable value you think the car is worth without the mods, then shoot for a number between that and the blue book. Remember the mods depreciate as soon as they're installed.

With all u got into the car, ask for 11 g's. I bet you'll get some rich kid to buy it. If u let that go for 8.5 you will be kickin yourself in the a$$ later.

...last August I bought a Pearl White 95SE 5spd with 130,00km (80,000miles)on it. No mods - totally stock, but with almost new tires and all options(leather, sunroof, heated seats, VLSD, etc.) except power passenger seat and CD changer. I paid $11,500CDN - or $9,000US.

Since then I've put 13,000km (8,000miles)on it and added a FSTB, a K&N filter and clear corners. Last week someone offered me $12,000CDN ($9,375US) for it.

Food for thought...
