Given the age and milage you should be able to get it for $3500 probably a little less but we need pics to help you out more!

whoa whoa whoa...a 92 with 149k. faded paint.....they are crazy! i'd offer 2k and thats it, you can get a way better one on here for 3500 man. less miles and everything. If i was you i'd look around a little more before you spend that much money on that car.

It'd probably sell for $3500 around here, but we have crazy prices in general.

<---hits himself again for passing on an $850 S13 this past weekend at auction. I probably could have sold it for $2000 easy.

Where in Virginia?

In most of VA, that sounds just about right. In NoVA (i.e. Arlington, Fairfax, or Alexandria counties), that would be considered a very good deal.

I've seen pics of your S13, I definitely would have paid $3500 for it here, to give you an idea.

I bought my 95 from a guy in that area(sterling) almost 3 years ago now for 3 grand even (perfect paint, perfect body, perfect interior, 125k) just had a bit of yellowing on the headlights but all it needed was some plastic polish...then again this was like the day before the 240 boom

in california la 91-93 fastbacks manual decent condition under 150k miles clean title goes for about 2500-3500.

i've looked at about 15 of them 2 months ago and th eones that go for 800-1700 are usually pretty beat... like raced out and all this crap like accidents dents/bashes.
