Default How much would I get for this?

I wanted to know how much would I be able to sell this car for, I got it all done, worked months on it... but its just not working out with me.

You can take a look at the pictures of the car here http://www.cardomain.com/id/avio07

It's a 1992 Honda Civic EX model, 4DR, custom paint, bodykit, rims with brand new tires (1 spare rim not spare wheel), lowered with eibach lowering springs, brand new brakes, eurolites back and front, underbody neon lights, prestige alarm system, jvc deck, 1 kenwood 1200 watt amp, 1 poineer 1000 watt 12" woofer with box, Koss 6½-in. 3-Way Speakers in front, Pioneer 6 x 9-in. 2-Way Speakers in the back, safety & e-tested

The mileage on the car is 220,000+ KM.

its not much but the most i could do... and now i want to sell it, how much do you all think i can get for it?

I don't think it's worth more than $3,000. You would probably be able to sell it for more if you put the car back to stock, completely stock. And then sell the aftermarket parts for cheap.

edit: *typo* 'sold' > 'sell'

I have gotten offers for over $8,000, serious buyers... changing the car back to stock would drop the value not increase it.

Still looking for opinions.

Don't be swayed. Most people here will tell you how horribly cheap you can sell your car for. $3000 is pretty ******* cheap for that car, even if it is ugly. go blue book the car and see its probably ~5500 retail.

the $8000 was prolly canadian money.

ok hears the problems with your car and why it won't sell fast unless u find that perfect buyer.

1. paint job will be next to imposible to match if it ever gets scratched, or hit.
2. flashy paint attreacts attention, more likly to get stolen or vandalized.
3. wings are out, unless you like the typicle ricer look. im not saying its bad but their are only few people who like that look.
4. Azztalights are out unless your like that look, and your decreasing your feild already with the wing, and paint.
The rims flashy and are just begging to get stolen. also look alittle big.

body kit and paint decrease your buying feild from 100% to 80%, plus the wing and lights your down to 60% and the rims, 50%, so that means that half of the potenial civic buyers might come look at your car. say their is 60 people in your area looking for a civic, your down to only 30, and they have to actually like the paint, or the body kit. so in realitly theirs only going to be 10 people who would consider buying your car. if you had a real ofer of $8000 canadian, take it, personaly i would shoot for 5-6k canadian

Not knocking anyone here... BUT, if the car is WELL maintained, mileage doesn't mean a thing... especially on a Honda, ALL of you know that, with the possible exception of cars that are five years old or newer....

As far as 'opinion' is concerned, just because it is not debadged and 'sleeper' looking does not mean it is not worth the time and $$$$ that he has put into it. He is asking for a fair price based on opinions of the folks on this board....

The car is not 'my cup of tea' but based on options, how clean it is, mileage, etc.... I am sure he could get 5 G's for it with the right buyer(s) - because everyone is into something about the car.....

IMHO.

yeah.. take the 8000. people here dont like the body kits and whatnot, thats why youre not getting high bids here. Seriously, go with the 8 g's.. youd be totally ripping that guy off.

If you are offered 8 Gs just take it already. Me personally I wouldn't take it if it was free.

I'd pay you 8g's and then drive it off a cliff so I'd never have see it again and have the poor civic go through the suffering of looking like that. Fiberglass need to be left on boats and wings on planes.
