Default 2004 manual potential sale

Thinking about selling my 2004 manual convertible. Roughly 49k miles. Well maintained. I have owned the pcar for 3-4 years put very few miles on her and thinking of selling. Bought from a dealer in nj and under warranty had the turbos replaced and major service done. Plugs etc. all fluids redone and new black top over graphite paint and interior.

What would be a good price? Interior and exterior I would give a 9/10. Minor stone chip like 2 and interior the leather is in very good shape.

Truthfully I wouldn't take much less then that anyway. I was thinking 45k or higher to sell. Not needing to sell just not having the time to use and just bought a new land cruiser so would love to have the garage space.

My usual advice is to visit some used car pricing sites: www.kbb.com or www.nada.com; (are two that come to mind) and plug in the car's numbers/condition and see what trade-in/wholesale, private sale, retail sale numbers come up.

Use these to set your asking price and your lowest selling price.

Stress all services are done, up to date, and you have paperwork showing this, and the car will not need any services for a long time. This sits well with used car buyers who don't want to face a big service expense so soon after forking over big bucks for a used car.

Ask $48,900. $46,000 would be a very fair price for someone.

Why were the turbos replaced? First I have heard of except people modding for more power. No disrespect to the car, inquiring minds want to know.

When I had the 15k service they found some oil. Seal gave way in the turbo so they replaced with new ones all under warranty. Completely stock. When I bought no over revs etc just think was bad luck.

I had the service done when I bought the car because I wasn't 100% sure what was done fluid wise etc so I just did everything to be safe. Coils plugs fuel pump all fluids.

Ok now just have to list. Be happy with 45-46k. Car is worth it. Sold my 964 to a fellow member here and I am a bit of a car nut. I like everything perfect.

Hey, how are you. Remember Long Island and the shop in Plainview. The shop is gone but Anderson and I see each other all the time. We have put together a fun bunch and drive almost every Sunday. If you are ever back here, join us for a wild ride.
