my timing belt jumped 5 teeth and im guessing bent the **** outta all my valves. however a new timing belt/ water pump/ etc etc was put on yesterday. its an 01 5spd base. clean title. needs im guessing a head and an ecu. body isnt in the best shape. got a few scratches and dents. sittin on sh rims. fairly new (10k mi) act hdss clutch with hd pp and act streetlite flywheel. 5 zigen fireball exhaust, new axles (5k), clutch master cylinder (5k). comes with spoon yellow valve cover with comptech oil cap, bmw x5 4300k hid's, pioneer mp3 deck, kicker solbaric 12L7, mtx amp. pretty much im sick of this car. dont want to fix it anymore. if u see my other thread ull know that its all my fault bla bla whatever. anyone think i can get 3k for the car the way it sits? i just dont want to deal with it anymore and thats how much i owe on it. am i smokin crack or does that sound reasonable? should i just junk the pos? lol all advice and flaming welcome

 

how many miles on the actual motor? I dont think thats a bad price but you might be forced to sell it lower. No one likes to have to spend a lot of money on the car right off the bat just to get it running.

 

119,xxx on the motor. but i mean dude their gettin a clean title lude for 3k. spend like 500-1000 and its runnin fine. the new timing belt bs cost me 500 already. im just tryin to cut my losses.

 

if it was black i would buy it off you

 

i would think you could get more than 3k for it...i would try to get at least 5k for it, then go from there, depending on the demand for it in your area..

 

if it weren't in CA, it would be sold for 3k... but I'm too far away.

but I think 3k is a good price

 

good to see im not overshooting the price. i just need 3100 to pay the car off, so i think thats what imma sell it for.

 

OMG 3k for that i would take that off your hands in a second. i would part it out honestly. your insane if you dont. I do not understand the car market in the states. seriously. My 4th gen can sell for 14gs right now where in the states you can buy my car for probably 5 grand. You guys car market is insane it just does not make any sense to me at all.

 

U might wanna make sure ur valves are all bent before you go and sell it. I know whos timing belt just broke and he thought his was all done for, got it inspected and everything was fine, no bent valves.

 

u might want to part the car out great idea but if u dont want any husteling or taking it apart just sell it as it is and i think u can get more then 3k

 

IMO, fix the car and sell it. But if you must sell as is ask $5k for it. Its worth that (atleast around here)

 

Sell all the sound system stuff out of it and minus that from $3000 and I'll probably buy it.

Honestly it's hard to find the right person to buy a car that doesn't run. Since the normal person expects a 2001 Prelude to run, they won't look into it.

But good luck. Probably better to fix it and sell it.

2-4k is probably how much you can sell it for. 5k is really high for around here. I bought my wife a 1999 Base w/ less miles that ran for $6500.

 

PM'd, (possible noob embarking on making a prolude) which means more and more questions for the vets to answer, which will in turn, keep H-T running and fuel the black hole in my pockets. BUT ! chickmagnet the entire time.

 

honestly if you lived in canada, you could part out all the upgrades and get at least 3gs out of just those, and you could part out every part of the interior and most of the engine stuff and get about 3gs from that and sell your frame for about 2 to 3 gs as well. imo if you dont part it out i think something is wrong in your head. If you dont you should at least get 6 grand. Infact, look on the for sale thread, you can find complete heads for 400 to 500 dollars. If you want i could get someone to ship a complete head down to you so you could just switch them and get a good 10 or whatever crazy low prices you guys sell your cars for.
