I don't mind the bashing man. It's the negativity in the comments I don't like. Plus, the majority of the replies are from MR owners. Now, I'm not bashing that fact, but consumers don't want MR's, thus the cars are usually sold cheaper than GSR's from what I've seen in the past. I'm sure there are GSR owners that feel the same though.
I'm cool with the car being worth what it's worth. But I spent months and months on end searching for an Evo X with lower mileage, and not once did I ever see any that were below $26k, SSS or base that fit that description. Any of the Evo's I have seen for $25k and under, were all high mileage bolt on cars. At least my car is flawless aside from the TPMS and strut mount. Engine bay is flawless, interior is new, etc. I'm out for the consumer market, not KBB. Dude acting like 26k would be generous is hysterical to me, at best.
Anyways lol I asked for this, and I somewhat appreciate the feedback. Better pictures and a price drop. Okay

I bought my 14 GSR this past May with 39k miles. My bank valued the car at 28.1K which is what I paid. I searched for over a year and not once did I find a low milage '13 or '14 GSR in the price range mentioned above. OP, my only advice would to at least put tires on the car.

Agreed man I feel your pain!
I am willing to throw a fresh set of rubber on it when it sells. I would have already done so but life has it out for me at the moment lol

I disagree.
All that typing, and the biggest thing is the pictures lol.
If you don't like the pictures, ask for more. I have the car posted in a bunch of places and all of which have different pictures. If you would like to bring some fancy camera down here to take pictures, I'm okay with that. Whatever makes you happy baby girl

I had a Wicked White 2014 Sight and sound EVO, leather, the works. MR, tuned by the best in the world, minimal modifications, ran like a dream ZERO issues. New tires, etc.. Should have could have would have gotten 31k etc. That thing sat and sat (This is a NICE EVO) for months. Kept dropping price. Let it go for around 27.
That's reality. Talk all you want but you're not going to get close to 30 for that car. Period.
The only realistic responses that you call 'slamming' in this thread, are the ones counseling you to drop your price. That's what you need to do, and yes, your pictures are trash and would impact your ability to sell at ANY price.

I made a reasonable suggestion because your pictures blow *** and you start talking all this ****?
ROFL
Done trying to help your stupid ***. You won't post up here when that piece sells for 25k because you're not man enough to. Keep living that 30k pipedream for your base model broken car.

Lucky to get $26k? People are selling their 2008-2012's, with more miles, for $26k and more. Not to mention, 2003's to 2006's are being sold at twice their book value, and still selling. I don't feel like that's even realistic. Maybe if you go by KBB private sell, that'd be close. I rarely see these cars posted for bottom dollar KBB values. Prior opinions on the Evo X pages on Facebook, were saying $30-31k.
Modded with mechanical issues.. The car is bone dead stock aside from the intake. I wouldn't really say it's modified. As for the upper strut mount, that's the only issue with the car and is a cheap simple fix.
Thanks for your opinion, though I think a bit short.

When I was in the market for one in late 2015, I found a white 2014 GSR with 8k miles. The guy wanted $35k. I immediately turned him down, I can get a brand new one at the dealership for that much (I stupidly thought at the time) and not have to worry about what it was put through in 8k miles. He went on a rant about how valuable the X is, I ended up just hanging up because I couldn't get him to shut up for 2 seconds to say "thank you for your time". He called me FOUR times over a YEAR to ask if I still wanted to buy it, each time lowering the price by $1-2k.
If you believe your car is bone stock, it shouldn't be a problem putting the stock parts back on. Doing that will do nothing but help you sell your car easier.
Your location matters. You could probably get 31k in SoCal considering how jacked the prices are here, as of 2015 anyways.
I would suggest more detailed pictures with better light. Probably get some pics around sunset. If you're going to list issues with the car, you should probably show a pic of it (ex. your tires). You definitely need more interior pics, there isn't even one of the seat.
Didn't look like anyone here was trying to bash you. In fact, it looks like everyone is trying to help. You're free to sell your car for what you see fit, but you mentioned you needed funds for a house (which was a bad idea to put in the ad IMO). Hold out for $31k if you truly want that much and don't absolutely need the money.
Good luck with your sale .

Want to sell it for the same price as a dealership?
Probably need to have dealership type of sales pitch and advertising.
i.e. high quality pictures, more pictures, better format on your advert. There's a dealership not too far from me that has a reputation for dealing with modified cars and selling them for more than they're actually worth... including Evos.
You might take a page out of their book and step to their level before wondering why yours isn't selling like you thought it would. www.cosmomotorsonline.com

Not upset lol. You are upset. MR is not a GSR lol. MR's have higher depreciation as nobody wants an auto Evo. My 02. Don't get butthurt because I called you baby girl, baby girl. Ain't tryna hurt your feels here
I speak from experience you're just upset because the answers you received don't fit the ideas you had in your head.
I had a Wicked White 2014 Sight and sound EVO, leather, the works. MR, tuned by the best in the world, minimal modifications, ran like a dream ZERO issues. New tires, etc.. Should have could have would have gotten 31k etc. That thing sat and sat (This is a NICE EVO) for months. Kept dropping price. Let it go for around 27.

The butthurt is far too real here and has gone too far lol. Simply asked for honest opinions, not booty hurt replies that it's far too high, or pictures. The car has been dropped to $29,000, and that's lower than even the Evo pages on FB suggested.
I almost feel bad with the amount of seriousness here lol.. y'all too hurt. I got what I needed, though. I don't need any more replies
Good day all! cheer up
