How much are these cars worth? Iam thinking about selling mine because iam in school and need a car that doesnt need so much matmience. It has new piant wet sanded and buffed, no door dings, engine and trans are strong, new carpet, hidden stereo, new corning lights, tail lights, all matmience things done, New a/c, new headliner, New lots of stuff.

The bad:
The digital cluster jumps around below 15 MPH
needs new rear bushings
front seat is a little worn
leaks a little oil, "manifold and oilpan gasket"
needs a new heatercore, "But I live in Houston"

I'm assuming yours is not a low mileage original. If so, you'll be lucky to get $2500 even with all the new stuff and that nice paintjob you put on it. If you're an impatient seller, don't be surprised if $1000-1500 is all you'll get.

Good luck, whatever you do.:)

Has 98,000 miles, but with that price its not worth selling it, it will just be a weekend car. Or put another grand into making it perfect.

You can put it on craigslist for $5000 but odds are nobody is gonna bite at that price.

I'll be surprised if anyone bites for $2500. I own one and I wouldn't even spend that much. The styling aged quickly and isn't for everyone. Combine that with a low output engine and repair costs for the mechanically inept public and it's a resale dud.

For what I've invested in mine in terms of time, money, and effort, I'm just going to keep the car forever and shove in an HO and a beefed up tranny. At the very least, it'll be a nice cruiser every now and then. There's no salvation otherwise.
