I dont post much on here but, my car has been nothing but headaches to me for the passed 2 months and then some before that. One of the timing chain tensioners I just replaced developed a tick again. The tick was a loud knock at first replaced it and now a week later its ticking at any RPM above 2500. Also when I put the car in reverse it feels like its slipping making the car feel rough. The car has no A/C thanks to the previous owner one of the high pressure freon lines is busted. The car is faded and has a ding in the pass side door. With 135k unknown miles due to the odometer being broken when I bought it everything seems to be falling apart. I dont know what to do with it nor have the time and money to fix these problems atm.

Despite how much I love the car, I dunno how much it would sell for from all the things that are wrong with the car or even sell at all.

What would be a price to put it on craigslist for?

I would say between $3800-$5500 and go from there the blue book value on the sn95's is not much its in the $3000 range but you have some tasteful mods and someone might be able to fix it with no problem

List high and start from there. Somewhere around 6500 might just be a stretch, especially considering what work needs to be done with it and the mileage being the way it is, but the stuff/mods that is done to it can make that price seem reasonable...well, to the right buyer.

Dude im sorry, but that car is worth notta. You would be lucky to get $2,000 for it and I think youll end up getting substantially less.

Keep in mind the car runs, accelerates, and drives just fine. I just drove 950 miles on it from oklahoma to florida. Thanks for your opinon though.

I thought you said it was knocking? If its not fugged up then I would say 3500-4500

I can't see $3.5k-$4.5k with numerous mechanical problems, bad paint and body damage--it's a $1000 dollar car around here.

The best bet would be to part it out, the heads and cams, cleaned up in a box ready to be shipped, are probably worth more than the whole car.

I did that some years ago with my '90 Miata that was in quite similar condition (bad paint, noisy rear-end, leaking rear main, 210k miles). I put the car back to stock and sold it for $1100, then sold the ECU, supercharger, header, exhaust, fuel pump, etc. on eBay for $3700. There's no way I would have gotten $4800 for the car with the goodies still on it...

i would say part it out as well. since the mods you have a lot of people would grab. otherwise i would guess start at $2500 and expect to go down from there. the mods will help some, but with the problems cant expect alot.

or if you really didn't want to take the car apart and return to stock...just sell everythign on the car. quarter panels, fenders, doors, wheels, engine parts and then junk the rest of the car that is unsellable.

Well if you're barely gonna get anything out of it, just keep and buy something new. If you were to get 1000 out of it, thats not a great down payment towards anything.

So i say keep it
