[1991black240sx]

I have a 1989 240sx coupe. body is in magnificent condition, has power everything, and records for everything done to it. it is completely stock. what is it worth to sell. runs and drives great. [IMG][/IMG]

You forgot to mention mileage... Pics of engine bay, underneath, and of interior... How's the rust? Tire tread? Brakes need changed? Does it have any leaks? Has it been in any accidents? How many owners has it had? All of these things factor in to a person's decision to buy a car... (If they know anything about a car anyway.)

[1991black240sx]

it has 150,000. All the pics i have of it. http://s929.photobucket.com/al...f5080/ brakes are new, tires have less than 2000 miles on them (still new), no leaks, i am the third owner, was bought in Kentucky, no accidents.

[Hippieperson]

not to change the topic, but i just looked at the pics and have you thought about parting it out?

[1991black240sx]

i really would rather sell as whole. i leave in 5 months for BCT and its too damn cold to take apart right now and i have another 240sx lined up to buy i just need money from this one.

900-1100

How do the frame rails look?? I'm from Ohio and I know Ohio and Kentucky both get a LOT of ice during the winter which means a LOT of salt.

[1991black240sx]

frame rails look good. was parked in the winter.

[PyR0NiAk]

800-1300 depending on the buyer...

[martins_240sx]

looks like rust right under the door...$800

[PyR0NiAk]

1 spot under the door isn't going to kill the value of the car given a mechanically inclined person buys it. It can be repaired in a single day for like $50 and your time. It comes down to the frame rails. Where he's at and the abundance of/interest in S13s is going to have a big factor in it as well.

[martins_240sx]

yeah BUT a good rule of thumb is if you can see it then its prolly places you cant as well. And plus that is going to involve removal of paint, that being said who ever buys that car isnt going to want a spray paint patch were the rust was repaired, and that is going to cost more than 50 bucks to get that area primed sealed and painted correctly...

800-1000

I'm curious how much shipping would be. I'd totally snag this up for like 900. I really want another coupe. It's 5 speed right?

[martins_240sx]

according to kelly blue book for your city in wisconsin a "90" coupe is at $660 for fair $1010 for good and yours is not excellent but that is 1260. keep in mind that this is for a 1990 not your 1989. Now I went and logged the price drop between all the years and it averages from $115 to $145 drop each year. kbb does not offer a qoute for an 89 so I retract my price and say it is worth $550-$900....

[1991black240sx]

no its auto. and it has a header, 2.5" exhaust, underdrive pulley, i could also throw in drop springs with struts, ruca's and traction rods. and a momo racing wheel valued at 300-500.

Oh. Yeah I just talked to my mom and she yelled at me to find something in this state so I'm sadly gonna have to pass.

Good point about the paint, I plan on getting a new paint job on my car anyway, so I didn't even factor that in.. My bad..

KBB doesn't apply to these cars very often... Most people that buy these cars, buy them for the purpose of modifying them in some way. It comes down to what my grandpa said to me when I was buying my first car. "Is it worth x amount of dollars to YOU?"

I agree, i bought my first 240 for 1800, it was the cheapest i could find. i really do want this one to sell but i dont want to get raped for selling price.

i have looked this car over top to bottem, the frame rails and underside are in very good condition.

[martins_240sx]

If it was mine I would put it up for 1800 and let it go for no less than 1500. It really comes down to demand on weither there are any 240's around you. If they are rare where you are at then you can bump the price a little. But I got my 89 coupe with full suspension and wheels for 2800. No dents. No rust. power everything. sun roof.ran great 112xxxmiles. this is how it came except i raised it to that height

[1991black240sx]

with or without the added parts?

[martins_240sx]

without...they WILL come with 1800 they WILL try and talk you down. if they seem like they will back out cause 1800 is too high then let them talk you down, but no further than 1500. Most buyers will only try and talk you down 1-2 hundred at this price. At this point, tell them, " hey I got some parts I can sell you to go with it." you will sell these for whatever they talked you down from. I say this because you are already making more than the car is worth and if you give them a deal on the extra parts they will think they scored an awesome deal. remember they come expecting they might have to pay what you are asking

[1991black240sx]

if i search for one around here there at two for sale. mine and a hatch.

[martins_240sx]

how much are they goin for?

[1991black240sx]

2400 for the hatch then there are s14's

[martins_240sx]

i say 1800 then. people who buy these are usually looking for a cheap platform and yours at that price would be the cheapest and most reasonable coincidering the hatch isnt worth that much either

[1991black240sx]

i have a guy waiting for his loan to be approved but that's all i have for offers. hes getting the loan for 3k.

[martins_240sx]

if he is dumb enough to buy it for that then let him. No offense but 2800 got me that/\ in cali

[zeedakay]

i'll take it for $350
