420A 1998 eclipse rs how to sell

[bboyroxas]

Okay so my clutch broke on my eclipse it's been so cold here in Nashville and I don't want to replace it I was quoted the cheapest at 1100 and my car has 190,000 miles on it so I want to sell. How should I sell it what is the best way to in order to get the most money guys any ideas?

Post it here in the classifieds, ebay, and your local craigslist. Make sure to include pictures of the Interior, exterior, engine bay, and be sure to list any damage the car might have.

Being honest will net you better results instead of trying to slip something by. Make up your mind on a price you are comfortable with, and ask a few hundred above to give yourself some wiggling room when potential buyers try to negotiate your price down.

you can try looking up the value on NADA or kbb or try to find other 420a's in your area to see what they are asking for theirs and take off some $$$ for the cost of a new clutch, a quick google search I found oem clutches going from 170-to 300ish, remember that doing a clutch yourself saves some $$$ so...

you could also find some cheap tires/rims and sell the ones currently on your car separately since they look pretty decent from the pic

hope that helps

I would say between 500 and 800 in its current condition maybe 1500 with a good clutch.

You're getting screwed on that price. Just wait till next week when it warms up and do it yourself. It's not that hard at all.

Like I said just come up with a price you are comfortable letting it go for.

If the interior has been well maintained you will get a bit more, but most people would not want to invest a whole lot into something they have to repair.

My first dsm was a 98 RS, I asked 1500 and eventually settled for 1100 and it had 230k on it but was well maintained.

Let's throw the question backwards: Would YOU buy a 98 DSM with a 420A that has a busted clutch, and if so, how much would you pay for it?

And, any other condition - good or bad - doesn't count since the vehicle is presently undriveable.

The answer would be the price you should expect.

Oh my; I wish it were 40+ degrees here in Minnesota. I would be doing quite a bit on my vehicles. Too cold, .

I would fix the clutch before trying to sell it. Maybe you can put it up for $2,000 after all is said and done. If you sell it without fixing it, you'll be lucky to get $1,000 at maximum if you are able to sell it.
