Sell the vs or not? What is it worth?

[sweefu]

Hey guys,
have been thinking about selling my vs while it still has good k's on it and saving up for something else, maybe vt or something.
The car is 96 series 2 executive, 175000k's
5speed manual, clutch and flywheel only 10 000k's old
new kyb shortened gas shocks/pedders ultra low rear IRS
front fe2, best whitleline link pins/ polyurethane bushes
bendix pads all round ABS brakes
2.5inch cat back. s/c cold air induction
k&n filter, just serviced, plugs leads oil, filter
vt ss wheels full set of 5, good tyres all round

any idea of what it is worth? Also, any recomended models that are coming down in price?
Thanks, any help would be greatly appreciated.

Is it a 6 or 8?

sorry should have said, 6 mate

[TrikkBen]

Ahh ok, Sadly dude they aren't worth that much anymore..... For your car you would get between 4 and 6 grand I think...

if the paint is in top-notch condition and being a manual, you'll be looking at $4000-6000.

According to redbook you'll get $3,500 if you're lucky.

redbook is crap. always undervalues. I was told my V6 VY S Pack (only had 53,000kms) was worth 10,900.
I bought it for 18,900 2 years before I sold it when it had 35,000kms on it and ended up selling it for 13,800.

Heres a big "**** you" to redbook.

agreed mate bought a vy berlina with 20thousand on the clock for 20 k sold it to a dealer 6 months later for 18k that was just over a year ago and redbook was saying 13-14 k

you'll be lucky to get $6k for it. I reckon anywhere up to $6k is your target area, but I think you'll be looking at closer to $4 for it. Not many people will spend that much on an old car these days...

i had a vr, lowered, sound system, exhaust, and some other stuff, and i sold for a quick sale for $4500with rego, no roady...so maybe advertise for 6 and if u get nothing lower the price every 2 weeks until u get to ur lowest u wana go

You know what they say about fools and money.
