Default Opinions of what this is worth?

As the title describes please look at this car and tell me what you think it's worth. It's my car and have done a ton of stuff to it and have owned it for about 5 years. I have a buyer for $3800. Ebay item # 150383467696. I know the miles is what is hurting me but what do you think? Two years ago I had a kid offer me 6K and turned it down. Damit!

I was always told the theory during a recession is KBB + 25% TOTAL COST of parts you have on it (not including installation)

Be sure to list the parts and miles on them. I am too lazy to go into Ebay and look up a item number; so yes a link would be helpful too!

Hope this somewhat helps!

IMO $3800 is good for it sadly. With all those miles and a stock tranny and stock bottom end, you aren't going to get much for it. I wish I could say more because that IS CLEAN AS HELL for 170k, but reality sucks

Is definately clean as hell and $3800 is fair price considering the mileage. I wish I had the money I'd take it.

$3800 is a hell of a deal. If I was going to keep it I wouldnt care about miles. My car in my sig has 169,000 miles.
The last time I got pulled over the cop did not believe it was a 93 lol.

$3800? you guys are crazy.

I got my car with all the mods in sig (minus hatch), with 85k miles for $3000. Spotless interior and good paint. Needed nothing.

it certainly looks to be a well maintained car. the hockey stripes, gauges in the AC vent and lack of emissions could go either way with the value but overall i would say $3800 is a good start for negotiations. realistically expect about $3200-$3500 considering all the cheap-asses using the economy as an excuse to lowball.

Well the guy backed out that last minute, he wanted me to deliver it 200 miles away. That's his responsibility. So if anyone is interested feel free to PM me or whatever.
