Default What's a fair price for my car?

I'm thinking about selling my car.
what do you think is a fair price for my car? Here are the specs.

MY 2000 Silverstone
43k miles. Mint condition except driver seat bolster wear.
engine bay very clean. All fluids clear and new.
New tires + factory spec alignment
new fabric soft top with glass rear window
factory bodykit (front lip + spoiler)
shiny paint


A friend wants to buy the car for payoff, which is around 12,700. Is this a good price? I don't want to over charge him.

Damn, I would say that's a pretty good price. Very reasonable.

I paid $14k for a 2000 with 20k miles recently.

If you were serious, I'd consider buying your car for 13k, no joke

I'd say 13.5-14k would be a fair price. I think 2-3 years ago for my 00 with 23k I paid 17 stock.

FWIW our top is Vinyl not fabric. So if you replaced with OEM you might want to revise the description.

A dealer would charge 14.5-15k, so 13.5-14k private party sounds about right.

Keep in mind market values are different from book values..
