taynewguy Posted June 16, 2005 Share Posted June 16, 2005 OK guys I just want some opinions on what my car is worth i.e what I will realistically get for it IF i decide to sell it. It will be a regretful sale but I have all my money tied up in it (I own it outright) and need some cash. Anyway I have listed the details below (excuse any mistakes - I am a bit of a novice): 1993 S1 R33 GTST (Midnight Blue) 261rwhp @ 9psi (Hyperdrive Dyno) Moderate mods and a safe tune Not driven too hard as it is my daily driver Regularly serviced and maintained by Hyperdrive 110,000km Body kit (GTR look-a-like kit from Autoworx) Tinted windows 17” Advan RG’s (silver) Lowered King springs Whiteline front sway bar Turbo back exhaust Pod filter FMIC Power FC (+hand controller) Blitz EBC (dual solenoid) Turbo Timer Extreme heavy duty clutch Pioneer Stereo system (worth about $1500) Blue interior neons for that extra BLING factor. Well that's all I can think of at the moment. Your comments will be much appreciated. Thanks in advance, Tay Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/77151-whats-my-car-worth/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
[D4RKS1D3] Posted June 16, 2005 Share Posted June 16, 2005 The onli thing that could possibly hold you back on your sale would be the car year. other buyers might be more inclined to lean towards a series 2. I would value your car at about 16-19k with 17k bein the lowest offer i would accept if i was sellin the car. If you were to sell it i would definatley pull the sound system out as you lose a huge value on it when reselling. Unless ur keen to ditch it.

Boostzor Posted June 16, 2005 Share Posted June 16, 2005 Yeh that sounds about right to me. 17k min, should sell fast at that price. About 19k would be reasonable though. Pretty low ks. is the interior still good? Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/77151-whats-my-car-worth/#findComment-1411902 Share on other sites More sharing options...

gtrken Posted June 17, 2005 Share Posted June 17, 2005 you are dreaming I sold my last car a 97 series 2 with full exhaust manual and 70k/km on the clock for 20k. who would want a 93 for 20... mods or not? Depends on condition. For example , we have a client who just purchased a 33GTR from the East for 26K. After inspecting the car I would have rather bought a 32 GTR for the same money. It is a dog.. To get back on track , Tay's car is a very nice example that looks mint with the RG wheels on it. Has been regularly serviced by us and no expense has been spared to maintain it. 261rwhp is very good for a near stock one and shows the condition of the engine.

Steve Posted June 17, 2005 Share Posted June 17, 2005 Check autotrader and the like - see what people are paying. Better still, pm chowetime, she has just bought a skyline after looking at many cars, most of which she was dissapointed with - perhaps she can give you a feel for what is on the market and how much it goes for. Remember, its pretty hard to say what a car is worth, until you have seen it yourself - there is alot of difference between a well modded, well maintained car in excellent condition (when I bought my 94, everyone who saw it and didnt know a thing about skyines thought it was a new car - it was that neat) and a car that hasnt been looked after. As Ken said, there are dogs out there tdawg, my 94 with mild mods, in near immaculate condition and 80k/km sold for more than your 97 series 2 - either you underpriced your car, some people put more value on mods than you do, or your car was in average condition even with the low kms Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/77151-whats-my-car-worth/#findComment-1414000 Share on other sites More sharing options...
taynewguy Posted June 17, 2005 Author Share Posted June 17, 2005 Thanks for the feed back guys. I consider my car pretty clean all round - the bodywork is good, interior is fine. Anyway I will do some more research (autotrader etc) and then make a decision on the sale. I was hoping for about 19K, but it would seem I am probably 1-2k of the mark. And at that price I'd probably keep hold of it, we'll see.

Steve Posted June 17, 2005 Share Posted June 17, 2005 Tay, if worse comes to worse, remove some of the nicer fruit, sell the car and the bits seperate. Things like a power fc, fmic, ebc, will sell pretty quickly. Oh, and fit a BOV if you want to sell it, or have one ready to throw on to seal a deal - alot of guys seem to think this is THE performance mod to have.
