$7000 97 Spyder GST 2(ish)years ago
Auto(only thing i regret), no mods,75k, great body & paint, clean leather...

i remember the stock radio didnt play burned CDs and the factory infinity system was shot... all blown speakers. so of course the first thing i did was buy a MAF adapter and cone filter so i have something nice to listen to .

[gsxAWDdsm692]

Does anybody know if the value of our cars are starting to go up at all or anything like that?
They are seeming to hold their value in some way.

Think they will turn into Supra's or Rx7's? Even 300zx TT's have had the same effect.

 

[93blueGS]

They won't turn into supra's or rx7's..

 

[gsxAWDdsm692]

They won't turn into supra's or rx7's..

In regard to appreciation.

 

[serglegkiy]

i am selling a 98 GSX with 72*** miles on it with some mods.

 

[turboglenn]

9 years ago when my car was a 1 year lease termination and only had 11,800 miles on it i paid 15,995 US dollars..

I waited about a week and started putting parts on it.
thermal cat back was first, then K&N FIPK, and then within 3 moths i had ordered 550's, big 16g, SAFC and a FMIC. ANd of course all the little supporting mods liek 1g BOV and evrything


My car is a 97 Eclipse GS-T

now has just over 100k miles on it and has had a t3/t4 and a full stand alone on it since 36k miles.

It had GSX stickers on it and was on the showroom floor so i didn't look underneath. But they ended up giving me 4000 back when the front tires spun and i went back raising hell... I wanted an AWD, but they wouldnt give me one for what i paid for mine.

 

[blackbetty]

[emoguitarboy]

$5.5k From a dealership, thought I got them down to $4k but they charged me $500 in Tax (I can deal with) but then they charged me $1k in S&H from the back of the lot to the front of the lot.

Driverside seat has rip, full racing suspention, Driver side damage (had to replace the handle and fender) Really wish I would have held out, I found a 92 6/4 combo, great shape for 3k
