Hey guys, I signed up a while ago because I was looking for a first-gen rx7 to use as a project car and have some fun with it... but, I scrapped that idea quickly once I got my motorcycle. Still, I want to get an rx7, but now I'm looking for a nice, reliable, good-looking daily driver, and I think I found one that would easily fill the place of my poopy Cavalier:

1990 GXL in mint condition

Now, obviously, this is a great-looking car. It has low miles, no dents, leather seats in great condition, and whatnot, but I still think that the price is a little high. I mean, it's a 15-year-old car, and it's not a turbo. What I want to know is, what do all of you think that the car is worth? Is it really worth $6000? I want to have a good idea of what I'm looking at before I drive 2 hours away to pay too much.

Thanks for any insight

I'd expect that price around here (canada) but most I'd pay american for that is...around 2500..granted, it does look good.

thats WAY too much.

I paid $3250 for my '88 with 72k on the odo. It was near perfect, just a few minor paint flaws and dings. But if everythings looking good on that car, I'd probably offer $4000. Def. not worth $6000 though.

I paid $1k for mine, but it was also in a front end collision that was repaired and had some interior flaws (bins missing) and dings dents and scratches, so I'd say $2500 would be reasonable. I mean, hell, FD's with blown engines go for $6k. What the crap?

It's clean and low mileage. Assuming it has been maintained as well mechanically as it has looks wise, I'd personally pay 4-5k, depending on how many/condition of the FC's around you. If you have a ton of nice FCs around, then a good condition isn't all that spectacular... if there aren't many FCs and/or lots of crappy ones around, it bumps that one's price up a bit.

I'd pay $4-5k if I wanted it as a daily driver and leave it stock. The real question is... how much is it worth to you?

That is one very damn clean FC.

$4k max

If close, go have a look see. Unfortunate no engine bay pix. I agree with the 3 - 4K range after you give it a hard drive. Do not let the emotion of a very clean car inflate what you are willing to pay. If fully insured, consider what you will get if it is tragically totaled.

I paided 550$ for my 89 GXL and she runs really strong, set aside from normal replacement. Like what the other people said also give it one hell of a beating. I personaly think that 6k is too high. $3,500 tops i could say. good luck on that.

i looked on KBB and they're saying about $4500... so, i'm gonna visit my insurance company on monday to see what the car is worth if it is totaled, and that's what i'll offer the guy...

we'll see what happens

thanks again
