Ok. I gotta sell my tibby.. Which sucks cause i love my car. But its just too damn expensive on insurance and parts are just too expensive, and hard to find. Besides if i am going to get this kind of gas mileage i may as well get the kind of car i wanted to begin with.... an 88 stang gt. Yes i know its going to get worse gas mileage.. but normal driving it gets 24 miles to the gallon. and its about 40 bucks a month cheaper on insurance. So anyway. I just wanted to know how much you guys think i could get for it..
Good -
97 Tib 1.8
117,*** miles (not soo good.)
Black w/ green flake
Cloth seats
power windows
fog lights
ICW racing rims
OBX headers
Pacesetter Exhaust
AEM CAI
Some Red L.E.D's (hidden)
Pioneer Headunit
Bad -
Paint peeling on the front bumber.
Dent in passenger side door to back panel. its about 2 foot long 1 foot tall and 2 inches deep. It does not effect the way the door or window operates.
I cannot take off the performance parts as i dont have the stock parts for it.
I also MIGHT be puttin it on EBAY. can anyone give me some tips for selling a car on EBAY?

If you sell the performance parts sepreatly you can make more money since value of our cars doesn't rise much, or at all with a couple performance parts.
If you decided to part, I call dibs on the cai.

do you know how to read???? ugh
buugie... i would think the car could sell for about $3500 or so. the dented side doesn't help that much
as far as selling on ebay, start off cheap. like $500 or so. set a reserve for what you would like for it, and put it up saying you reserve the right to cancel if sold locally... that way, if there is like 5 mins left and the high bid isn't what you want for it, you can take it off saying you sold it locally

^Awesome idea. I would guess that you probably wouldn't get any more than 4k for the Tiburon, even on Ebay. Chipping paint and the dent deffinately don't help. I paid 10k for my Tiburon over Thanksgiving and I know I paid too much (managed to talk him down from 13k). So yeah, keep it if you can, but if you seel don't expect to get more than 4k.
