Selling my turbo coupe, what's a fair price?
I don't really want to, but ---- happens. Just wondering what you guys think is a fair price.
95 Civic Coupe EX
115k miles
Z6 motor
Y8 tranny with Quaife LSD (grinds going into 3rd, but it works)
Custom T3 turbo kit
Custom 3 inch exhaust
ACT xtss clutch kit
Tokico Illumina 5-way adjustable struts
H&R sport springs
HX wheels
It has a few other little things like ARP head studs, wheel studs, jimfab motor mounts, etc... but those other things I listed are the main things I'm looking at when trying to figure a price out. I replaced everything at 90k (water pump, timimg belt, etc...) and oil changes are done a lot. I drive it hard, but that's what it is for. Kelly Blue Book says it's worth $3200 stock in fair condition. The issues with the car are the steering column needs fixed (needs new key cylinder), the passenger window doesn't work, wipers don't work, the tranny grinds going into 3rd, speaker grill is missing and a couple plastic pieces are broke, window film on driver window is peeling, minor dings and scratches on the outside,but other than that it's pretty clean. With the issues it has I wouldn't say it's worth more than maybe 3k at most stock.
I wish I would have sold my Quaife tranny and put a stock tranny in to sell the car, because I don't think most people even realize what the LSD is worth just by itself. I"m sure I would get the same offers with a stock tranny. I have it listed on craiglist for $4750 right now and some guy wants to come by it for $4400 today. I have been telling people about $4500, but I really think I could get more from the right person, I do need some cash soon though. I always see people selling their stock riced out hondas for retarded prices, so maybe I should put a wing and stickers on it? Anyways I just want a few ideas on what you guys think is a fair price.

Re: Selling my turbo coupe, what's a fair price?
Yeah I was hoping I didn't have to, but I'm still looking for a job and need some cash. I was kinda hoping I could just sell the motor/tranny/turbo kit and keep the shell, but I'm lazy and that's a lot of work lol. I'll eventually get another honda to turbo, but this one does have a lot of memories with it, mainly the fact that it's still alive after everything it has been through lol...

Re: Selling my turbo coupe, what's a fair price?
I would say if someone comes up with 4400 cash, take it.
On a sidenote, who wants to take bets that it blows within 1 week of the sale?

Well I'm just saying that because that's the way ---- happens. It's been a badass car for so long, but the second you sell it someone is going to have problems with it. You're going to break that poor cars heart.

Re: Selling my turbo coupe, what's a fair price?
Dont tell me that, now it's going to be harder to sell it! 
Oh and I am taking the HMT stickers off it when it's sold. I don't think it would be right leaving the stickers on.
