Help with Price (1 Viewer)

[scent of a mule]

Hoping someone could help me with pricing. I am considering a 1998 LC, 101K miles. Carfax is clean. Two Owner. Texas. Maintenance records, timing belt done. New ARB Bumper, Anzi Rims with KO's , 2.5 OME lift. Interior is clean, paint is clean. No rust.
Looks darn good.
Guy wants 25!! What is a fair offer on this rig when I go back?

 

[Eharmz]

If he wants $25k then I doubt he will drop it to anywhere near what a decent asking price is....this person sounds delusional.

I hope somebody pays 25000 for it.
That is a nice looking rig...

 

[Warde]

Id go find another one to buy. guy wants full market price back for his mods

I'll sell you my supercharged LX470 with your choice of front metal bumper for 25K.

 

[jLB]

He appears to be asking, full retail for the mods, full retail for the vehicle, then multiply by 2

I've been loosely tracking values in prep for selling my 100 this spring. That vehicle in excellent condition w/o the mods has a private party value in Dallas of maybe $6K-$7K?. Add in some value for the mods and I wonder if it would be worth $10K? If those mods are exactly what you want and the vehicle is exactly what you are after, it might be worth a bit more to you? But, overall, maybe half of what's he's asking? At the very least, ask him how he came up with that price, based on what the books are saying.

Too bad you're not closer to Cali. This one came up today.

One owner with 138k miles. All services done at dealer up til 100k miles.

You would have $15k to spend and dial your truck any way you wanted.

You could do a plane trip, drive back, and still have thounsands to mod the truck.

Just to give you a perspective of what else is out there and the costs. Good luck.

25,000 is plain stupid.

 

[TRAIL TAILOR]

$10-15K IF all the maintenance is documented and the CARFAX is SUPER CLEAN, IMO.

But, then again.. someone might pay 25K for it...

Gorgeous rig. I'll give him $15k for it right now.

I texted and emailed this owner this morning when I woke up, no reply yet.

 

[OG 91 LC]

I hope you score.
No roofrack either
Good luck.

That looks almost too good to be true.

It is definitely worth more than $6-$7k, without the mods. Texas truck, low miles of 100k, and great condition is easily $10k-$12k, they are very hard to find. With the mods, I certainly think $15-$17k is reasonable, with $25k being high. The simple fact is that there are no set prices on these. If he wants $25k, and someone is willing to pay it, then it is worth $25k. He likely expects negotiation.

Yeah, after reading some people here on mud finding crazy deals, I had to try.

I appreciate that info. I was just going by the average of the major price guides (for non-modded trucks) in a private party sale in that area and if you're right, then the guides are reading almost 100% too low! And, adding $5K for the mods is amazing too! Demand must be really high!

Do not follow price guides, they are nowhere near the actual value of Cruisers. From what I have seen, a clean, rust free state, low mileage and solid PM Cruiser does typically go for nearly 200% of the book price....and they are well worth it!

'98 with 101k, 2 owner Texas vehicle and no rust. Without the mods, I would say $10k is reasonable for that rig. Mods never hold there true value, so the bumper, lift, tires/wheels, and roof rack may be worth $3k-4k total now. I think $13,500 would be reasonable. However, as others have said, the vehicle is worth what someone is willing to pay. $25K can get you a '06-'07 LC with sub 100k miles. Good luck
