Default How should i price my car

I have a 2000 BB with 15000 miles on it. I am thinking of selling it it is in perfect shape.
I just have no idea what to ask for it cause it has such low miles for the year. It is stock. Any suggestion? Reason I am selling is because I want to buy a higher mileage s2000 to set up for the track, I figured the one I have is to nice to start to rip apart.

Thanks for the help.

well i remember a member here buying a 00 nfr w/ also very low miles (somewhere in 10,000's i believe) and he paid about $12k for it. of course he got very lucky but i don't think you would get any more than 14-15k tops. although it might be perfect condition i know i wouldn't want a '00 and pay more than 13k even for perfect condition.

but let's see some detailed pics to help calculate the value of the car.

I was going to buy a mint 2000 with 26k miles red/black interior everything was basically mint. I haggled him down to 13k. You can probably get 13-14k if you find the right buyer. MY00 is not as desirable as 2002-2003 (at least it wasn't to me)... doesn't have the glass window, tranny more prone to problems.

I think it really depends on your location go on craigslist and look at the prices of the s2ks around your area, I would base it on that GL with the sale!

It helps out a lot if you have all the maintenance records that you have gotten done to the vehicle. Whereas, somebody just selling theirs and telling you what they got done. For all you know they could have beat on the car, something they noticed was wrong, and now selling to a prospective buyer.
That way, nobody can try to low ball you. You got papers to back it up.

Use the online guides, shop around in your area. Location does affect what you can expect to get.
