I've been kinda watching prices lately, as I'm considering to sell.
I'd bet you could get $15-18k.
I have a IX with 130k mi that I'd probably get about the same.
Your mileage vs mine being an '06 and all.
Approx $18k to someone who REALLY wants it and can do their own clutch.
$15k or so for someone who will be paying $1200 to get it done.
For $15k I'd probably have been on your door step already. LOL

Well maybe all the people claiming they can't find this kind of car really meant they
don't want to pay for a low mileage/unhacked car. It does take longer to sell a better
example of any car, just the way it is.

and yes, some money off for the repairs, but let me ask you this. If this car is only
$15K, what is a hoopied up car with 120K miles and bad clutch worth, $8K??

That said, OP needs to detail engine compartment, calipers, and swap over
other rims. First impression and all......................

A few years ago there were high mileage evo 8's on Craigslist for 7-10k. I let one go because I didn't want to pay $8500 for a 175k mile one which I should've just because it was a clean example of a car. Realistically a stock car and lower mileage does fetch a higher value than one with double the mileage and best up. I'm just asking what the realistic number being asked for this vehicle that needs some work as time is money and again people do not pay for sentimental value.Maybe change the clutch before posting for sale.

To the OP I regret selling my car and you would too so I think you should keep yours. I regret selling mines mostly because I flew out to Utah to buy it and drove it back to Ontario, Canada (3 day drive). It was a WW IX MR had 75k on it. I sold it with 125k on it.

Your car needs:
65k miles that needs timing/water belt service.
No big deal, most guys that buy these type's of cars are gear heads and can do it themselves and parts are cheap even at the dealer. Not sure why this is even an issue. $300 fix

Clutch that is slipping.
No biggie, who ever buys it and keeps it stock just needs a stage 1 clutch or even a twin disk if they plan to modify later on. I paid my tech $550 CAD installed for the clutch on my car. I think a shop in the US that work on these cars all day would probably do it cheaper and faster.
Clearcoat on Wing coming off.
No big deal, you never see the clear coat when youre driving and it doesn't affect performance... or does it? Buy the proper products, sand and redo it yourself for less than $50


If I were buying your car no I wouldn't pay the asking 25k. But to me it would cost me less than 2k MAX to fix everything. You car is clean and the only thing not on your side is the fact that its an 03.

Lowballing in the Marketplace is not allowed. This includes comments on price, where to get it cheaper, or any inflammatory remarks.

The OP hasn't been on the forum since Dec 27th. I don't think he really cares.
