If you were closer to me, i'd give you 16.500.

I'd ask closer to 20, but depending on the actual condition of the car.

Any dent or damage? Title? How many owner? Any rust? If everything is good, then yeah, that's a low price, you'll sell it quick.

Just make sure you put a lot of thought into selling it. There are lots of guys on here that regretted selling their evo. If you have to do it though you have to do it i guess.

Ask for more then your bottom line price. You probably can offload it for 16.5k

damn, my wife is looking for an Evo right now and this would be on point....

please do as some others have already said and rethink this...I would ask for more than 16.5K though. Probably start at 19.5K. either way brother, good luck. I hope to never sell mine -_-

Evos are holding their value......I wish they were getting more expensive. But unfortunately cars don't work that way, especially evos

i had a few guys come up to me and ask me to sell them my car but i couldn't because i'd just end up getting another one or else upgrade to a X but dont need anymore car payments. if it were me, i'd just keep it. the value on the car holds up pretty good.

Well you people have convinced me not to let it go for less than 18,000

I'm just at that point in my life..... Its still a fun car to drive... handles and brakes like a dream...

I want to take the money and use it as a capital investment to import a container of furniture from Vietnam. (I sell furniture).

I would buy a truck for work (probably a tacoma), a bike for fun (another zx-10), and eventually down the road get a 65 mustang, and eventually get a c6z06 later on down the road after I buy a house.

Or I can just keep the evo in my garage and pass it down to my son when I'm 40 something. (23 years old now)
