Make my car go away.

[smug]

Serious thread.
Everyone knows my car and knows it is minty with no shortcuts. Nothing to hide.... How much money can I get for this thing? I really want it to go away with out parting it out. I know mods don't add value to a care in the banks eyes but someone has got to be willing to pay over KKB for this thing.

what did it hit on ebay?

 

[1quick]

whats kbb retail on it? you really need to find the right person to pay over kbb retail and those people are few and far between in the grand prix market

 

[smug]

7200 on ebay

 

[smug]

Suggested retail is $5900
Fair price is $4900. This is on kbb.com

 

[Yaj Yak]

i feel like that 7200 may have been the ticket.

sadly.

im gonna list mine on ebay on a never ending ad with a buy it now of 15k

 

[Angus]

I had some people seriously interested in the daytona at $10k. Then the trans said "I'm going to be a bitch"...

 

[1quick]

I would say 7k was probably a decent deal, I sold off the Camaro build for 7500 with receipts for 17k in parts that had never been used not including the value of the car

 

[smug]

Sucks that I could probably get $7000 for the car but I would rather be closer to $10,000

your car is worth every bit of 10k, unfortunately the 3800 crowd is filled with retards that want nice things but dont want to pay for them.

 

[boostedguy05]

Was it listed on any grand prix specific forums? Or just here and e Bay

Its been on this forum, ebay, and CL. I dont frequent any GP specific forums anymore

 

[Yaj Yak]

Maybe that's your ticket then... GTP forum

 

[Frank Dukes]

CGP and GPF are worth a shot for sure. hell throw it up on tech. need to find an enthusiast that is willing to pay what its worth.

So it's worth 10k except it's not worth 10k to people that would actually buy he car?

I got 10k for my 2004 with lower miles, a turbo kit and basically in mint condition and that was 3 years ago. If you had someone offering you $7000 for that car I would have grabbed it and never looked back. As clean as the car is at the end of the day it's an old Grand Prix with a really limited pool of potential buyers. People that are looking at that vintage of Grand Prix are looking at it because it's cheap. People with budgets of 10k aren't looking at them at all. So the buyer you're looking for is someone willing to pay top dollar for a well kept example of an old car that was basically a dime a dozen. You'd have better luck finding a unicorn I think.

I like Mike K's answer. is the 3800 scene really there anymore to be asking a premium price?

Sounds like that $7k doesn't sound so bad when you really don't want the car anymore.

 

[bimmer4life]

Correct me if I am wrong [MENTION=98]smug[/MENTION]. But this car still can't pass emissions? That will discourage a majority of buyers as most people that have the money to buy a 7-10k 2001 GTP will need to pass.

 

[VenomousDSG]

I'll get you $10,000 for your Grand Prix if you can get me $45000 for my Cobra.

I dont know. I dont drive the car enough for it to run its ready monitors. A friend of mine asked me to day and asked me when was the last time I drove the Grand Prix and I just looked at him and said "I honestly can't remember."

 

[1quick]

im not trying to be a buzz kill but i had my turbo 04 for sale for 11k and came no where near that with it ended up parting it out, my 06 for sale for like a year back in 2011 listed for 11k with a s1x 300whp set up with 35k miles on it loaded to the gills and ended up selling it for 9500

 

[Yaj Yak]

i think 9k is out there somewhere for smug's car...

where... i don't know.

the car is completely perfect on every single inch of the car... it's just finding someone who appreciates that...

 

[EmersonHart13]

Donate it to James, for his museum... and

Problem solved.

SELL TO SOOLS

1/2 mile at the latest.

 

[The Broken Regal]

Time of year might also have something to do with it... Price, likely too. I'm sure there is some guy out there, but I've seen them go the way of a turbo car for that kinda money.

Is it a real factory GTX?

Demod would be worth it if you have upgraded everything, though don't remember your exact mod list.
