PPI will ultimately determine value. If all is well, low to mid 30's isn't bad. Having said that, it never hurts to try lower.....as in 26-28ish. There have been some smokin deals out there in the last couple of years.

This is the red C2 that arrived from a high end dealer with a broken speedo, so who knows what the actual mileage is on this car.

I'd think it's a $30-32K car depending on what's been done and whether suspension is still alive. It also depends on where the car is. The closer to cold weather - the cheaper it should be this time of year.

seller wants $34500 and tht is his bottom line. Suspension seems fine,clutch is ok, two door dings one on drivers door and the other left fender,tires have 40%life left, Car is in pretty good shape and is here in the bay area.

Without knowing what options or aftermarket parts/upgrades the car has I'd say around $32-33K is about right assuming there are no stories and the car has had regular maintenance. How many owners? Always a CA car?

I'd let him sit on it for awhile at $34K. Not a great time of year to be selling a car. I bet come spring, he'd be jumping to take $30K.

Then again, there are some folks, including one I see here on this thread, who price their cars unrealistically high and never seem to get real with sensible pricing that will actually SELL the car.
