How much did you pay for your DSM?

[green_4g63t]

picked mine up for 500$. the last owner put a timing belt on wrong and bent just about all the valves, so i put a good bit of money in it, but still payed under 2K. pretty fair i think

 

[knewblewkorvett]

Talked my guy down from $19,025 to about $17,200. With tax and title it was back up to over $18,000. April 1991.

traded my 420a for my TsiAwd

Talon ran bad due to a misfire which was just a spark plug!
If only he knew

 

[KuckFatrina]

In 04 I picked up a black 96 Eagle Talon TSI FWD from an older couple who were the original owners with 43k original miles on it. $6000 Had it for 2 years exactly, put a couple grand into it, maintenance/performance wise and sold it for $8000.

In 06 I picked up a silver 99 Eclipse Spyder GST from the original owner with 54k original miles on it for $8500. I still have it as it sits on jackstands in the garage, I'll never sell this beauty

I think over all out of the about 7-9 DSM I've had I've gotten pretty good deals. I've had a couple that were not so good deals but who hasn't as a DSMer??? We all got to learn from somewhere.

97 GST Spyder with 140k miles and a few paint flaws - talked the guy down from 4500 to 2100. His wife was pushing him to sell. A month after I got it, a brand new Landrover kicked it into reverse in the middle of the street and nailed me. Now the car is at the bodyshop being cleaned up. When I get it back it will be showroom clean

Good things comes to those driving behind idiots in 60,000 dollar cars.

 

[Cox Abele]

I just picked up my second.

1995 Talon TSi with a 2gb eclipse conversion started. The body is rough and it runs like it has a boost leak, but shifts smooth (auto) and is AWD too. The interior cleaned up VERY well and will make for a great winter beater until the spring when it gets blown apart for parts... $1300

[Coalbey]

$500 for a 90 laser rs turbo, needed motor. 100k+ miles

 

[turbotalon1g]

$200 rust free auto from OK, needed a motor. $1000 running with DSMLink.

 

[shanebro]

800 for a 1992 TSi rust free (in the rust belt (Iowa) ). Did not go into gear or start. A new starter, transplant of a pp, clutch, throwout bearing, plus bleeding and taking the slack out of the clutch petal fixed those issues. Now I have an awesome TSi with a JDM motor (no cyclone intake) Throwing not one single code. Its nice to have no lights on my cluster for a change.
