Default Soooo... how does another what's my car worth thread sound?





I'm not 100% interested in selling the car, just gauging what the current value for the car would be. It's a 2003 c4s with 130k on it. I have all receipts for everything done for the car from 30k until now. Probably return it back to stock form if I ever sold it, but that's irrelevant now. Light peppering of front bumper. Ims was changed out 10k ago. All fluids are fresh within the last year. Ln spin on filter adapter just put on in recent oil change. Carbon fiber door silks, shifter, e brake, and console. Sport exhaust. Let's hear some suggestions. Big money big money no whammies no whammies.

Beautiful car... the mileage is extremely high...

I would guess somewhere below $20k, based on what I see as asking prices on craigslist in Chicago...

Cars with 60-80k miles are very low 20's... probably selling for less than that.

Beautiful car, I really love how it looks. But 130k miles on a 996 is way over the moon for most buyers. My wife was looking for a 996 to buy, and she was pretty adamant that we not even look at cars with over 70,000 miles...

You're in the right ballpark. It just depends on how quickly you want to sell it. I think it would bring 26-27k on BAT if you waited until spring to list it.

1. how much did you pay for the car?
2. depreciate accordingly for mileage accrued/condition, etc.
3. compare to current market in your region/location.
4. voila...your list/asking price

IOW, how much would you pay for this car if you were shopping/looking to buy?

cars.com lists a bunch of 2003 4s cars, with 90-100k miles... Cars with 60k miles are asking mid 20's...

Asking prices from $8000 to $18000. One outlier asking 23,000?

https://www.cars.com/for-sale/search...akamai-feo=off

I hope you get a lot for your car, good luck!

With 130k miles the market will be small, I'd say $22k if you're lucky. Want to sell it fast? $19k I see cars with 50K - 70k miles selling for under $25k. So with the higher mileage adjust accordingly.
