Default Was $4500 a good deal?

I bought this 92 coupe off a guy here in indiana that never drove it. He picked it up in Mississippi and it has no rust anywhere and the black interior is in mint condition with original paint. Has 100544. Just wondering if you think $4500 was good deal because i been wanting one for a long time? Its the car in my signature....

Seems a bit high for a car thats 20 years old.


It blue books at about $3000, It does have alot of extras though.


I guess if your happy with it and it holds up I could live with $4500.

$4500 is a tad high, but not way out of the question; as long as the car is excellent overall condition. Plus, it does have some nice modifications.

I think $4500 is an ok price, if it had been more than $5000 then I would say no. For the mods you have it was worth it. The LX's on CL around here with similar mods are going for the same price and do not look that clean.

id pay that price for a clean car like that. it also depends on the area, a car like that up here would fetch over 5... cuz foxes are uncommon in the poconos and every douche up here thinks his car belongs in barret jackson

ain't that the truth...I laugh at anyone who comes at me with kbb on the value of these cars, expecially one with mods...some may say mods reduce the value.....?? only if you're looking for an all original low mileage one it does, otherwise price/value is driven by want / desire of what one is willing to pay for it
