The Official "What's this DSM worth?" Thread

[talonted1]

Well, maybe I should take my car to ebay then :laugh:

But, seriously, I'd jump at a nice 1g for 2 grand in my area, that is if I were looking. Maybe I shouldn't have stuck so much into fixing the car, or even taking on the project. I just didn't want to see another nice 1g die. Sooner or later there won't be all the 1g's there seem to be now.

I was just looking at the classified section, there are several 1g shells for $1000+

[DSMSpyder99]

i would give nothing more than 5 grand. why would u primer black a GST spyder this is a drift car

 

[97spydagst]

i primerd it cause it had some dents and i got a kit so its just primered ready for paint! only 5 anyone else??

 

[dustyb]

hah, you're taking him seriously? if you're doing all the work yourself i'll shit in a box and wrap a 5 dollar bill around it =D seriously tho, if you wanna know how much your car is worth. www.nada.com + you can't add your mods to the car because modifications don't make your car increase in value that much..... plus you can only get what tradein value really says. you can't charge for the high retail for it unless its in tip top super shape, not a bird shit shadow on it, 30000 miles, with oil changed every 2000 with synthetic.....

 

[97spydagst]

I'll be getting 7-8 with my car.

 

[Patter$on]

the book value of this car is more then that, im in oregon

 

[Thomas91169]

when i got rearended i had my buddy who worked at ford do a wholesale value on my car

97 gst spyder, 60k, 5spd, great condition, and wholesale was 9,500. i had him runit to make sure they werent going to total it out.

blue book should be upwards of 11,000.

i got mine for 7500, it was a bmw dealer that didnt know the cars potential and just needed space for his beamers. but in looking for my car N/T gs/rs in the area with 100k+ were going for 9,000. even a non operational GSX with 120k+ they were looking for 11,000 for it. cali prices are so high you gotta look forever for that special one.

 

[97GS-TSpyder]

your not going to get more htan 8500 or so for it

I couldnt even sell my car (see gallery) with everything on it for 9 grand or even 8 or 7
i had to trade it for 5....

your not going to get what you think
unless you hose someone

and i live at the beach
