I think i'm going to sell my 2001 accord, ive had a few fender benders, but everything has been fixed. and done so in a very high quality...
Im not looking to sell it on here... Just need some advice if i should fix a couple things, or leave it as is.. and what i should ask for it?

But it does have some issues:
-its a 2001 V6 coupe
-has almost 150,000 miles
-think it has pretty much all the standard upgrades i could get when i bought it (i bought it new so i am the only owner) i think the only think im missing is the fogs...
-the front end, hood is somewhat pitted.. damn dallas roads..
-the drivers seat has some tearing on the bolster from so much getting in and out, actually about 3 inches of foam missing.
-it could also use a front end alignment, has a pull to the left
-could probably use a tune up, and belt


Looking at kbb - it looks like i should be able to sell it 5500-6500 or so...
but with the issues i listed above...
should i fix anything, or just sell it as is? would i be missing out on some realised extra cash if i fixed a few things?

Any input is much appreciated..

Thanks all.

 

Also I forgot to mention, my 6 disc in dash cd changer has quit working and i have 6 discs or so in there.. I need to get them out... when i try to change disc or eject it just makes a wrrrr-ing sound, so it sounds like something mechanical... Im guessing if i open it up, i can get the discs out without much issue...

But is this a standard thing, or is there maybe any easy fix, or something i can do... so that it will work properly?

 

Ask yourself if you would want to buy a car with those problems. If you do the work on the tune up and belt, it is much nicer for the customer to read "fresh tune-up and new timing belt" than "needs tune-up and timing belt". Make sure front tire pressures are equal and that brakes aren't dragging - may not need an alignment. See if you can find a better seat at a salvage yard. Don't worry too much about the paint, that shouldn't be a surprise for the age/mileage. Best thing you can do is clean it inside and out, including the engine compartment.

 

Thanks for the response..

Other than the seat rip - the inside is in Excellent quality...
I will check on the tires.. something I haven't done in a while, as i've been driving my new ride mostly.. But with all the potholes and crapy roads around, i wouldn't be surprised if it still needed a FEA
It actually runs extremely well.. I'm just thinking that its about time to have those things done...
any idea what i should expect to pay on a timing belt and tune up... would like to get an Indy shop to do it... if i can find a reputable one.. dealerships just seem so over priced...

 

Last timing belt/water pump I paid for was $800 at a dealer (had to have it one quickly and correctly, next one I do myself); I believe that included balance shaft seals and new power steering, alt., A/C belts as well. Probably knock $100-$200 off at an independent shop. If you do plugs, cap, rotor, and wires for the tune-up, approx $100(?) for Honda parts (check prices at Majestic Honda).

 

V6 = craptastic AT.....good luck with that.....

 

Oh and why is that?
