hello, im new on here and was wondering how much do you guys think a 1997 type r would cost with 800 miles? I'm pretty sure its only 800 miles on the chassis and the only modifiation he did was a cat-back. I think he might be asking 25-30k. Is that too much for a 1997 with 800 miles on the chassis? It's a guy asking advice prices for it and he is selling it for his father-in-law. Here's the website for it.. orangecounty.craigslist.org/car/353230747.html

Thanks


wish i could get it for 22k but i doubt it..

I wont believe it till I see pictures.... But 25k sounds right if it is true. Who is the seller?

 

Here's a fun excercise... Call your bank, give them the VIN number, and tell them how much you want for a '97 Integra... Wait for laughter.

My point, it would be worth it to the right person, with CASH. Your average Honda fan boy would not have the means to get that car, myself included.

However, I would say it would be easily worth $22,000-$25,000, but once again, to the right buyer.

 

dealerships will pay that price because they know the value of the car and they will sell it for 35 - 40k but depends on dealerships my local one ofereed me 18 for what i haddone to it but thats mine everyones is different

Damn I need to go to your dealership haha

 

that would be a steal and a piece of history for 25k, ohh if only i was rich

 

^ No kidding... I'd love to buy this thing, park it in my garage, put a car cover over it, and drive it once a month or so, on a perfect day.

 

This thread is such a fuggin tease without pics and a word from the actual owner....

I'm gonna buy it and rub it in Doespike's face. Isn't this the car of your dreams

 

LOL, one of them. Also want a 97 I can actually drive.

 

Man you guys are nuts to pay that much IMO. If you had PLENTY of cash hanging around sure, but if you couldn't easily pay cash for it...crazy.

x2.

 

if that car only has 800 miles on it, and you bought it for 25K+, I think you would be silly to DRIVE it. someone would easily buy that as a collector car, for 25-30K+. a 97 ITR with low miles like that COULD be an investment, unlike most of the other beaten, high mileage, modified ITRs we all love to drive. the only way an ITR will ever gain value or be a collector car is if its stock and has very low miles.

and like others have said, I wont believe it til I see it.

 

Well, to me it sounds like the owner of the car was going to do just that, save it as a collectors item or something. Wonder why he's selling it now.

 

^ Agreed. I'll drive my existing Type-R into the ground, every single day... But if I had a mint extremely low mileage Type-R, you'd better believe it would be a garage *****.

He would have been better off taking the 25K and investing in Honda STOCK not a Honda car.

He would have made 4x in that time. Unless someone is willing to throw down $100K for the type R in 10 yrs, he's way better off investing it.

Collecting cars for profit is pretty much retarded.
