--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

the mileage is not a typo.i am the original owner of this green/tan leather 5-speed car.always garaged,stock except recent greddy stainless cat-back exhaust.have all service records from day one.

mechanically excellent,oil changed every 3750 miles,recent tb/wp,other drive belts, hoses,distributor,speakers,12k on bfg g-sport tires,new radiator a few years ago

interior excellent except for a few small cracks in driver's seat leather

body-never wrecked,has some small parking lots dings and scrapes,one fender is rippled where it was pushed in by a person who was shoved against the car,pushed out by hand,pass side mirror was knocked off on garage,glued together

would appreciate opinions on value,selling bc i have an nsx

 

if the compression, leakdown and vacuum check, probably 7000-ish

don't have pics now,may be too new on the site to post 'em

 

makes no sense. anyone can cut and paste [img] code from photobucket

 

Green/Tan, God! FU(K you Honda and your horrible taste! lol

Every Honda I've owned short of one has been green/tan

 

Few things come into factor:

1. Your condition of the car matters. Its 16 years old.
2. Service records. The more you have, the better it looks. Honestly, you saying that you changed the oil, and servicing at a dealer with a record, is completey different. You know what Im saying?
3. for its age, and mileage, if true, you should be getting a good price. Id offer $5k. With records, Id offer $7K. Thats me though. There will be low ballers.

 

Depending where you're from, I think your car could fetch close to $5k. Kind of hard to judge since prices for acura's/honda's fluctuate so much depending on the actual condition and market place.

 

i believe i have all service records since it was new.almost all work was done by a reputable local shop that has worked on lots of hondas and acuras since the 80's,and all oil changes are documented with their work orders.the rest of the work was done by the dealer,and a master mechanic who works on my nsx did the tb/wp,other belts and distributor 4/09 at 45k miles.

as for location,i'm in central nc (very little snow/salt/rust)

 

ask 7, if it were me i would leave it there, but see what you get for offers

guys are still getting 5k out of 120-130k mile cars which is totally different than 50k miles.

you could probably part the car in half for 6k. the full engine swap would pull 3500 to someone in cali fairly easy. rest of the car would get 2500 without much trouble.

i really wouldn't take less than part out value if i were you

 

thanks for the input.i'm going to offer the car for sale for $7000.i'll put it on this site when i can.in the meantime,here's my ad on craigslist:

get better pics and wash, wax and detail the car. more visual pop will help the sale. also helps show people this is different than every other gsr

 

id say thats probably a fair price as quoted. BUT myself personally would never buy 12 year old car with that low of mileage. to me it says its been sitting alot and idk thats just me though.

 

compared to being driven a lot?

not sure where the point is? a LOT of the jdm ITR's have similar mileage

 

i had cleaned up the car pretty recently,but just have a lot going on,my mom died not too long ago,so i didn't clean it up again right before i took the pics.
it's almost impossible to keep your car clean for long this time of year in nc during pollen season-you get it immaculate and the next day it's covered in green dust,even in the garage.it doesn't hurt anything,but there's a lot of it.
i just hope someone can appreciate this mechanically excellent 1-owner car for what it is.

 

sure, and you'll either get a buyer who's 25-35, or, if it's a younger kid he'll likely be from un up class family.

you just have to sort through the eg driving, hoody in 100deg weather idiots who will try and low ball you and compare your car to the 190k mile gsr their friend paid 4k for
