Help on setting a price for my Z24
Sunday, June 17, 2007 7:41 AM
I guess this is the best part of the Forum for this as I will be selling it in Ont Canada.

I'm looking for some advice to what I should start the price at as I know people always like to price drop you on anything,I was thinking at least $7000-$7500

The car

2001 Chevy Cavalier Z24
KM 140k
Loaded with everything that you could get on the Z24 in 2001 PW,PDL,PM,Sunroof,Auto,ac etc

If I get the price I want after reading what you guys think I should put it at,I will include these

1,3 sets of rim and Tires

stock 2001 Z24 rims
winter 14" steelies and tires
RTX 17" rims and tires

my Autopage RS-860LCD 2way combo unit
Clarion flip out screen
Alpine type X sub-woofer

I bought the car in 05 with 32k on it,Im the the 3rd owner of it.I have most of the Recipes to tell whats been done,But a hole lot of them where stolen.I left my folder in my Grandmas car one day and some punks broke in and stole some things including my history papers for my car.

Heres some pics,I haven't changed much at all on the outside or engine just added some 15% llumar tint on the fronts and some clear corners and some flame Z24 emblems .So these pics should still be up to date

At the Dealer-ship back in 05






when I brought it home

Pictures of the engine and interior,etc





15% tint/5" strip 5%


Clear corners


flip-out screen




The new 17's,Haven't even gotten rubber mounted on them yet



Winter steelies and tires





Autopage combo unit rs/alarm remote


So do you think $7500 is fair or what.if I don't get what I want I'll just keep it but just looking for some feedback

If I could find someone to give me 10G's I would take it,But theres not that many fools left

I would say any where between $3000-4000. That $7500 asking price seems a bit high.

heres the kbb prices for you car. i converted it to miles so the price would be more accurate. keep in mind the prices are in American dollars


Vehicle Highlights

Mileage: 86,000
Engine: 4-Cyl. 2.4 Liter
Transmission: Automatic
Drivetrain: FWD
Selected Equipment
Change Equipment

Standard
Air Conditioning Tilt Wheel Dual Front Air Bags
Power Steering Cruise Control ABS (4-Wheel)
Power Windows AM/FM Stereo Rear Spoiler
Power Door Locks Single Compact Disc Alloy Wheels
Optional
Sun Roof

Blue Book Private Party Value
Private Party Value is what a buyer can expect to pay when buying a used car from a private party. The Private Party Value assumes the vehicle is sold "As Is" and carries no warranty (other than the continuing factory warranty). The final sale price may vary depending on the vehicle's actual condition and local market conditions. This value may also be used to derive Fair Market Value for insurance and vehicle donation purposes.
Vehicle Condition Ratings
Check Vehicle Title History


Excellent
$5,740
"Excellent" condition means that the vehicle looks new, is in excellent mechanical condition and needs no reconditioning. This vehicle has never had any paint or body work and is free of rust. The vehicle has a clean title history and will pass a smog and safety inspection. The engine compartment is clean, with no fluid leaks and is free of any wear or visible defects. The vehicle also has complete and verifiable service records. Less than 5% of all used vehicles fall into this category.


Good
$5,255
"Good" condition means that the vehicle is free of any major defects. This vehicle has a clean title history, the paint, body and interior have only minor (if any) blemishes, and there are no major mechanical problems. There should be little or no rust on this vehicle. The tires match and have substantial tread wear left. A "good" vehicle will need some reconditioning to be sold at retail. Most consumer owned vehicles fall into this category.

Fair
$4,610
"Fair" condition means that the vehicle has some mechanical or cosmetic defects and needs servicing but is still in reasonable running condition. This vehicle has a clean title history, the paint, body and/or interior need work performed by a professional. The tires may need to be replaced. There may be some repairable rust damage.

Damn I just converted it using the Excellent condition price whitch itis i would only get

$6,125.77

Thats to f'n low all the dealer-ships around me want like 8k for there 01-02 Z24's and they have about 125-130 on them and just come stock no extra wheels or anything

I'd say $4000-$5000 is around what I would ask, keep in mind dealerships always ask alot more than private sellers...

Also that deck ya got tho nice prolly wont be a selling feature as the average person isn't really into that type of stuff and could possibly shy away.

i hate to break it to you but there's a 95% chance its not in excellent condition. do you have all the service records for the car? from a shop, not the receipt from crappy tire for a jug of Quaker state.

it is very unlikely that a car with 140,000KM on it will be excellent. if it really is excellent, the mods are going to knock it down to "good" because most car buyers want OEM.

im not trying to knock your car or anything but be prepared to accept the "good" condition price, or even less. i know right now my 2005 is only "good"
