Do you have receipts or proof of the parts or engine build? a serious buyer is gonna wanna see that. It has some good parts but the mileage, front bumper, looks to be a dent on the right quarter panel you didnt say in the cons is gonna affect the price. Why was the motor replaced also with a gsr block ? What kinda damage was dont to the front in the accident? Also you should post some pics of the engine bay too. Just my thoughts.

Ya i dont have pics of the bay yet, working on that.

The front damage wasnt bad at all, it broke the "A" on the bumper and pushed it a bit...it was very minor damage and just really needed a paint job which they sucked at. I dont have papers for the work but i know for sure i can go back anytime and get them. As far as the dent on the right quarter panel there isnt one so it might have just been from the pic. The reason it has a GSR block was cause i wouldnt at the time find a ITR block. which was specified in the post

I wouldnt pay more then 10k for it mainly because of the miles on the chasis, an accident, and the motor is not original.

Sorry but I think hes right. 10-12K seems right. LOTS of miles on the car, doesn't have the original block, no back seats, dent on roof, and no ITR stickers. Find some back seats (you can get them for $150-$200), buy a set of ITR stickers (roughly $150), and it'll at least help reselling it. Good luck with the sale though

Well, that's just my opinion on it. If you want premium price on it then you are going to have to wait for a different buyer.

Most people buying itr's wants the original motor, no accidents, low mileage, exterior being somewhat dent/scrape free and yours is just the opposite. I can get a high mileage itr with the original motor and probably the same exterior as your's for 10k-12k now a days. I mean, you're right to say that its a 97 and its rare, but like I said earlier, its going to take a special buyer

FYI: The badge number has nothing to do with the production number. Its highly unlikely your car was the 15th ITR. Its obviously one of the first 316 sold in the States, but beyond that who knows.

187k is A LOT of miles for an ITR. And the appearance of the car isn't great. The poorly painted front bumper and missing emblems and stickers aren't gonna help you at all.

Ya its for sure not the best looking ITR out there, it does need some TLC. This is why im not quick to smack a price on it...im being patient and seeing what i can get with offers. I'm thinking maybe about keeping it and cleaning it up if i cant get something decent. ill need to add some things and stick with the 10-12k range....i do appreciate all the help!!!

N1 has some JDM ITR rear seats for $100 right now, might as well take a trip to the bay and pick them up. PM Kenneth about the seats

Start the price higher than what you think you would actually get. This is coming from personal experience. Receipts is a big plus! I would try and put as much stock pieces back on. Sell your aftermarket pieces on here. Got papers from the rebuild?

I don't think I'd even go that high. It has more damage than he even stated here, what else did he "forget" to mention?

I agree.... I think you will be hard pressed to get 10k out of it......

maybe if all the little things were fixed......

Good Luck w/ the Sale

Incorrect guage cluster (and mileage)
Non SRS wheel
Serialized badge looks like oem blank (number sequencing/ spacing incorrect)

$9500 would be my guess.
