i know i am going to get flamed so bad for asking this, but i gotta know.

i have a 06 rsx(base) 5spd MT perfect condition, no flaws, 16.5k miles, milano red with tan leather interior all stock.

what is it worth?

pics for refrence



i dont know if it matters: the car is 1 owner(of course) all reciepts

 

Have you researched on kbb.com? What more do you want to know that kbb.com doesn't tell you?

 

yeah it says like 18,185 and nada says 18,675. i dont think anyone is willing to pay that much. i would actually appreciate serious answers i reasearched kbb, nada, and edmunds. i'm not internet stupid i'm just wondering what real world people would be willing to pay for it.

That picture looks like it was taken at Ponce Inlet where I surf.

 

I suggest comparing and/or looking through all of the Bases on the market today. Here and other various used car sites.

There you can have an idea how much your final price tag will be.

thats the thing people are trying to sell them anywhere between 16,500 and 21,000. all i want to know is how much would you be willing to pay for one IF you were in the market for one.

kbb.com and research is the only way to value that car. Put it on the market for what you want, then see how much traffic you get.

Small fuel efficient used cars are selling pretty well right now.

I don't understand what help you need from us. It's not like the car is rare or hard-to-find. kbb.com is an accurate source for that model right now.

i'm not saying the car is rare or worth more than kbb says it is. i'm actually saying i think people are not willing to pay 18,185(kbb's quote) for it. all i wanted out of this thread is for people to chime in and say, "yeah i think your car is worth: $xx,xxx so i can get a general idea before i go and pay 50 dollars to put it on autotrader. but its cool i understand that it is obviousley to hard for anyone to do that.

You'll usually never get kbb excellent value unless the car is in extreme demand, which it is not. Shoot for kbb good as that's more realistic. That's what people are going to work from anyways.

And you're not going to get people coming on here saying what they'd pay for that car.

 

what the others said....might want to try out the kbb...

Complete failure.

 

KBB is super inaccurate......


NADA is a good starting point, but rarely true.

Check autotrader and source out the best deals, then take off 1500 and thats what it's worth most likely. Having recently bought a type s for 17k, I can tell you that around here bases range from 13-15k in excellent condition.

This is actually a good idea also, but again the OP's car has only 16500 miles on it, its still almost brand new so he could probly do better than that, by a little atleast.

 

well i can tell you that 18 is high. my mother works for a high end car dealership, they had a base 5spd 2006 rsx there a couple weeks ago. it had 21xxx miles on it and they were selling it for $14k, same color too

 

Start at $18,000 on Autotrader. Says it's lower than KBB value and go from there. Some (unknowledgable) people may become very interested if they see you're asking less than KBB.
