GI 1999 Chevy Monte Carlo Z34

Well it is about that time and I hate to do it but I need something more practical. So I am gauging interest prior to selling. I would prefer to keep her to pass her on to the kids when they get older but the Wife will not let me. So I am trying to get interest on here to see if trade in would be better that outright sale. As far as stats she is in decent condition for her age (183000) and shows normal signs of wear. Only mod added were Borla exhausts. Stock tips were put on. I have used ceramic pads on the car for over 5 years. Disks and pads replaced this year. Nothing else major wrong with her except she needs tires.

Just trying to get a general interest at this point.

Sorry looking to get $3500.00

Whats more practical, something with 4 doors?

Post a price.

 

[LaneLander]

4 doors, minivan/SUV something that can pull shit and still carry all the runts around.

 

[Bob Kazamakis]

2010 rav4. Runs 13's stock.

 

[LaneLander]

yea if I want to pull a rabbit out of a hat. towing needs to be 3500lbs + with seating for 7.

 

[ktraver97ss]

I don't think $3,500 is realistic with that many miles. kbb is $2,500 in excellent condition.

 

[Turk]

I think you'd be lucky to get $1000 with that many miles!

 

[LaneLander]

that is why I am Getting Interest.

Thanks Kev

KBB also says $2500 if it had 999,999 miles in excellent condition.

 

[LaneLander]

Turk you are not helping.

 

[Riski]

put 22's and alift kit on it and sell it in the ghetto or aurora

 

[Dasfinc]

but the Wife will not let me.

And he is asking $3500 for a $1000 car...

I see what he is doing here

It will end up getting traded from what I can tell.

You said mini suv not many small suv's have a high towing capacity.

 

[Euro]

I don't see a $1,000 car here at all

I think his asking price isn't that far off. I'd probably offer $3,000 and take offers. The car's real clean for such high mileage.

You said mini suv not many small suv's have a high towing capacity.

V-6 RAV4 is rated to tow 3,500 pounds and has an optional third row that increases room to seven. Though towing 3,500 pounds with that many people on board will exceed it's GCWR, and the third row is useless for adults.

The dealer isn't going to give you more then $1,000 for it. If he does its because you negotiated trade-in price and avoided negotiating sticker price on a new car or its buried in the financing. Also, if your shopping used cars thats were the fat mark-up is on a dealers lot so they can "give you more for your trade in" so you feel better about overpaying for a used car because its "certified".

BTW: no one gets "clean trade-in" $$$$.

PLUS it runs 13's stock with the v6


He did say he was gauging interest. It does seem very nice for the mileage. Perfect swap candidate.

 

[LaneLander]

looking at the 2010 Toyota 4Runner. That is probably what I will move towards. If they are only going to offer me a grand for a trade in I am better selling it outright.

 

[Cully77]

fwiw I sold my 98 z34 with 106,XXX for $3000

 

[LaneLander]

Asking 2,000.00 for her clean title in hand. Needs tires.

I'm not sure of all the rules on here and don't do it if your violating something but...

If I were you I would start a new true "FOR SALE" thread. This one probably got buried by most already and some people aren't going to scroll through all that to get to you last post.

 

[LaneLander]

good point
