Please Help with Value On a 1993 R1 TT!

I'm looking at a 1993 R1 with under 10K original miles and absolutely flawless. What is a fair price to pay for this car? I'm finding it very difficult to price since there are so few out there to compare it too. Most everything else that has sold on ebay has had way more miles.

Any input would be extremely helpful!

Thanks in advance,
Daniel

A '93 R1 with less than 10k? What's the color?

I would imagine depending on the color, if the condition is really good, somewhere from $23-25k.

As it is relatively easy to swap out odometers or change the odometer, I would carefully investigate the condition of the car to make sure the wear on everything matches up. There can also sometimes be problems from having a car driven so little, such as corrosion from oil and coolant being left in the car for too long.

I would say that if the car is immaculate, then $20+k is certainly reasonable.

Check with CarFax first to confirm the mileage.
10 K in 10 years is like 1K a year. May have 10 generation of mouse family in the exhaust...

I hope they started it up often. The rotors don't like to sit in the housing for too long.

Yeah, they like to get out every 60-80k or so.
