Default Whats my civic worth?

Hey guys I am currently thinking about selling my 96 civic. Tell me what you guys think its worth. I already have an idea but its nice to get second opinions to compare to. Its got a jdm b18c with a number of bolt ons. Extras like LSD tranny. Every fluid and belt was changed about 10k miles ago so its all up to date on maint. Koni/GC with camber kits.

Oh yeah and the swap is BAR legit in California.

The only negative is that the body is going to need paint soon cause the clear coat is coming off.





What do you guys think?

Yeah I like it, but I get too much attention. I am afraid I might be getting the wrong kind of attention.

5-6 depending on how much your buyer wants it. i'd say keep the thing, downgrade to steelies and get a little security.

Instead of selling it and spending more on a different car, get an alarm. A really good alarm. I can't see the pics (blocked from work?) but maybe some more subtle rims and a more stock looking muffler (again, can't see, so I'm assuming).
From the sound of it, you have a really nice car, and you know all the bugs. Starting with another used car, you never know what you're getting into, and how bad it will nickel and dime you.

As long as you don't pop your hood then everyone will think you have a stock Civic. If you don't want it stolen don't go telling eveyone what you have and drive like a maniac.

Should keep it.

Here is the reality of it. It doesn't matter what we say here, or what you think it is worth because you did x,y, and z to it. Is it clean yes. Belts fluid changes new brakes that all falls under maintenance of the car and adds no value. The motor swap only adds value to someone looking for that.<U> So it is only worth what someone is willing to pay you for it period!</U> So put it in the paper for what you want for the car and if it sells good for you If it doesn't your probable asking to much.

I'd say around 5-5.5k.

Start it at 6 though as somebody will try to talk you down.

Definitely 5-6k. It has a B18c that is BAR'd, PS, AC, and the body isn't banged to ****. Throw it up in the So Cal marketplace. People will swoop on it quick.

GL w/ the sale.
