is that a good price for a 98 type r with 60k miles? it seems to be in pretty good condition, but i was wondering if that was a good price before i went to check it out. thanks.

 

stock?

 

yup

 

too high!!!
i got mine 98 R with 56k miles with forged wheels and couple mods clean title full service record and all origional stuff come with the car for only 13000 and the car is in mint condition no accident clean in and out i would think a stock R probly most be 14000

 

i think i can talk him down cuz the car hasnt been going anywhere for a while. but if i'm also thinkin that the miles are kinda high. i dont want to regret it later on. would u guys go for it?

 

talk him down and then go for it. R's are the ****

 

talk him down enough to cover the 60K service interval you will have to perform on the kaa

 

Remember that when buying a car the price listed is only the asking price, im more then sure that it is negotiable, if youve got the cash anyone is willing to deall... good luck

 

Yeah thats way to much, I just got my 00 R with 21k for 16000. Talk him down.

man how do u guys get such good deals? what the hell. a 2000 with 21k miles for 16k?

 

Seriously, are these R's shitted out? I couldn't get a GSR for that price around here. I payed 13500 cash for my 99 GSR w/ 47k. Full Leather and great condition.

 

Are these the R's from Highland Park Honda? If they are they've been in accidents and have been repaired like crap. I was going to buy one until I found this out.

 

I got my R for $14,250. It's a 98 with 61k. Perfect condition, with AEM CAI and 12" sub along with Boston Acustic speakers all around. It also came with new snow tires on steelies. You should be able to talk him down a little.

 

No, but thanks for letting me no. They have a black one that LOOKS nice and i was gonna check it out. Forget it now. The 98 is a private seller.

 

I think NADA lists the 98 at about $14,500.00. The miles are not really that high for a 98.

 

Nah this car has had only one owner, and is in showroom condition, no accidents or anything from what carfax and the guy said. Motor is still super strong.

hmm...15k...doesn't sound TOO bad. but if you can talk him down then go for it! i'd probably pay the 15k tho

Agreed, those really aren't high miles at all. The car is 5 years old. 60/5 = 12k per year

Larkin who bought his 97' w/ 36,000 miles in sept for $15,000

 

remember, $15k isn't far off for the value of a 98. i probably wouldn't pay that much for it, but then again i get bored of cars rather quickly and switch.

don't cheat yourself out of a nice car for a few hundred dollars or even 1g.

meaning, if the car is as clean as you say and in great shape, original owner it would be tough to pass by.

there are plenty of used itr's on the market that have been beaten to death. finding a good condition itr these days is tough, especially a 97-98 if that's what you're looking for.

so because some one got a better deal than other people that implies too high?

you got one hell of a deal, considering blue book wholesale is 18500 for the car with 45000 miles.

Pretty strange logic to be sure. Seller was either clueless or in a hurry. I bought a used Miata a few years ago for about $3k under blue book value. It had been raining constantly for about a month before so dealer was not exactly getting inundated with offers. To conclude that anyone who paid more than me was paying too much would be silly though.

$15k sounds reasonable. Try $14k to see how desperate they are.

 

i'm gonna go check it out this saturday. thanks for all the replies guys
