    pricing advice...

    hi guys, sorry if this sounds like a noob question. but I'm thinking of selling my VR4 Legnum and was wanting some pricing advice.

    what should I offer this for??

    1997 Legnum VR4
    72,000km
    manual
    mint condition
    standard BBS mags
    top of the line mongoose alarm
    full adjustable ralliart suspension
    cat back exhaust upgrade
    1 owner in Japan, 1 owner in NZ.
    very good pioneer head unit

    yeah, not really sure what it's worth so I thought I'd ask the experts.

    thanks

    sy

    Whats the body like? dents/cracks... rust?

    Id say it would be worth around 10k+ for that. Anything above 10K is a bonus these days
    I reckon you could get between 10-12k for it.

    Any pictures would help!

    sorry, don't have any pics of the little bugger. might take some tonight.

    No, no rust or any dings. pretty much mint.... Except it's got that weird double aerial on the roof that they sometimes have in Japan. but it doesn't have the Japanese sat nav.

    1. What about the options? Colour, interior type and colour, Moonroof, towbar. little options that pop up like odd steering wheels, handbrake, etc.

    2. Was it a smokers car because that will kill the price unless a car smoker wants it.

    3. Just what do you mean by mint condition exactly?

    $. Chuck up pics of everywhere and we can point out stuff that might get a better price.
    I'm not arguing...I'm just offering an endless series of contrary points of view.

    1. Dark green colour, moonroof. airbags, AYC, pod filter. other than whats mentioned already, it's stock

    2. nope. not a smokers car

    3. no scratches, no dents, no tears in the interior. everything works.

    4. I'll get some pics up soon.

    would anyone here be interested in it??

    Being a manual with the big roof and in good condition with those km's you will get around $10k for it, but you may have to wait a while for a purchaser to come along. If you want to sell it quickly, ask for around $8k

    a car yard that i wont name offered me $8000 min as a trade on mine which i was quite happy with!!! consisdering you usually get offered next to nothing on a trade!

    but he did say that was because of the little things like it being a white sedan with sunroof and being manual.

    id say list it at $12K to start with.....i mean if shes a minter someone will be interested (thats if you are not in a hurry to sell) then you have some room to bargin with the buyer and they will feel they have gotten themself a bargin if you sell it for say $10000

    Could be a good car, could be a bad one. Either way, you'll have difficulty shifting a car without pics, a description just doesn't really cut it!

    Oh yeah, totally... I wasn't trying to sell it in this thread. just don't really know what I should ask for it so I thought I'd ask the experts. I'm going to give her a good wash and take some nice photo's this weekend and list it then.

    thanks for all the advice guys
