[QUOTE="TFStang, post: 16332072, member: 72692"] Care sounds nice, but let’s consider recent sales and “no sales” for pricing. I think it’s really a matter of finding the right buyer for your particular car. Take for example the 00R from NJ that sold recently on BaT. It was a 1 owner thousand mile car that was a no sale on EBay at $49K and was purchased by a dealer who paid $45K for the car and sold it on BaT for $60K. Clearly the forum for the sale played a big role in selling the car, but the original owner also sold his one owner car for $45K. So average that out and you get low $50’s for a perfect, low mile and fully documented car. Now go to the two recent “high mile” R’s recently on EBay. Both cars had around 10K miles and had a tough time making mid $30’s again resulting in no sales. I have found the “non collector” segment for the 00R is very thin as most people seriously shopping for a 00R do not plan on actually driving the car, which is a shame because they are an absolute blast to drive. These collectors are typically looking for a car that has 5K miles or less. They are also looking for a car that comes with as much documentation from day 1 of original purchase as possible, original window sticker, black binder and they want the car to be all original as in the way it left the factory. These are the buyers that will pay a premium when they find the right car. Now...the fact that there were only 300 made creates more of a disparity in pricing between a low to no mile cars and cars with “significant” mileage. You can get a low to no mile example for $45K - $60K as we have seen in very recent sales. A low to no mile example will be 30 -70% or more higher price wise than a car with miles. So taking recent pics no into account I would say the range on your car would be $31,500 - $40K in the high end. Probably not what you were expecting to hear and likely what you won’t hear in an enthusiast forum, but that’s reality for these cars right now. Also, modified cars bring less of a premium than cars that are totally stock. Positive for you is you still have the stock parts. If you get anywhere close to $40K, that’s all the money in the world for that car right now. Probably not what you wanted to hear, but that’s the market right now. I’m sure that will change as it typically does with the collector car market, but that’s where we are at today. Best of luck with the sale. If you are serious about selling, I suggest listing on EBay. Even if the car doesn’t sell, you will get a ton of inquiries and possibly even end up selling off EBay due to the exposure. [/QUOTE]
