R's arent exactly abundantly available. and a minty stock R is even more rare. people will pay that much for one that is in that condition.

its very hard to find a clean stock ITR plus the # of itrs is decreasing weekly so it makes then rare. they are worth what you pay

Low mileage (say under 30K) and mint condition, particularly on an '00 or '01 (the yellow or mythical black ones), and sure, they'll go for around $20K.

High mileage (say over 75K), average condition (nicks, bumps, bruises), and you're looking at $15K, even less in some cases.

Does that help?

If someone was willing to pay $20gz for your car and it was listed in the book at $17gz would you sell it for 17?
