Whats This Worth?

Afternoon all,

I work as a new car salesperson at a Volkswagen dealership and I have a client of mine who is expressing interest in a new VW Golf GTI. He currently owns an Australian delivered R32 GTR which he is looking to sell.

The owner is the 3rd owner and has owned the vehicle since 24,000klms. The car currently has 120,000klms on it with documentation. It is burgandy in colour, completely accident free and is stock standard apart from Bilstein shock absorbers and is mildly lowered. I have run my eye over the car and it is immaculate.

The reason why I ask this question is because neither myself or the owner know what this car is worth in todays market. I turn to the Skyline Australia community for some trusted advice.

Any help would be appreciative.

Well i'd say around 30,000 with documentation,

but really he should have an idea on what it's worth.

Also there is a difference with what someone will pay and what it is worth.

I have no idea what kind of trade in you would offer him though.

New golf's are a damn nice car.

These are 1994 model right ? im guessing he trading in his car i reckon the trade in vaule would be around 19.500-22.000 and if he was to sell it privately he would get ranging from 22,000- 28,000 mabye, 28 would be pushing it i reckon.

The local R32 GTR prices has dropped dramatically due people importing and they are much harder to sell.

Personally I think that the car should sell at least 30k privately. Also as someone pointed out it depends on how much someone is willing to pay for it.

When I got mine about a year ago I paid 32k for it, and it needed a little work to get running nice again. But that’s the price you pay to have a bit of motoring history.

It's an enthusiasts car and worth a lot more to a (true) enthusiast than anyone else. With only 100 Oz spec versions imported (@ $100K+ on the showroom floor) it is a collectors item, esp it if it's original in every way bar suspension (Bilstein's are a plus, of course) plus has verifiable service/owners history. My guess would be anywhere between $30K and $40K for an excellent example, with lower k's fetching a higher price. Trade-in is anyones guess, but probably less than half what its actually worth.

To clarify, $110,000 was the list price of the r32 GTR in Ausralia:

      Oh, I forgot too, all the multimedia stuff captured and sold through things like people playing Pokemon Go. Pokemon Go specifically, can actually be traced all the way back to a CIA investment company too. So yep, they're watching everything. Not to mention the new stuff where they've worked out how to use WiFi signals to be able to map occupants inside of a building. That one would be something that I see being more used in public/government buildings, as you need to understand the signals when the room has no one in it first. It's not as easy as Hollywood would like you to think it is.

      Great work! Give it a clean up with some Emery paper, and I'd run a thread die over the threads too to clean them up. It will make reinstall much easier, and also life easier for the next time it needs to come out.

      I'm not a fan of high humidity, it's one reason I don't mind being further inland out Ipswich, except the last 3 odd years, the drought broke, and it won't stop raining, which is making the humidity nearly unbearable when the rains are in during summer! For me, my body hates the cold, once the cold sets into my body, I'm totally screwed. I end up with severe muscle spasm in my back/shoulder muscles, and it feels like someone is trying to tear the muscles out. I have no issues with it getting stupid hot, so long as the humidity goes away. So the last 3 years as above, have been woeful! Ha ha. However, June 1st, and I'm only just converting from shorts and a tee, to long pants and a t shirt. And that's mainly as it's a bit wet and miserable and I wanted to work on a car.
