Mods, if this isn't in the right section please move. My apologies.

Car got into a fender bender, needed a new hood, driver headlight, driver corner light, driverside fender. Both airbags deployed.

NO FRAME damage
Everything is repaired perfectly
new dashboard & steering wheel
Interior is immaculate
stock ka fairly low miles

Just in the market for a kouki

Thanks.

I think you may be out of your mind.

If you read my signature it clearly says 2003 Nissan 350z...

funny, most of us are thinking the opposite:
sell the s-chassis and move to a 350z

Well, thats exactly what i did, but honestly i miss my s14. The power/looks its all there! I thought id want something with a new feel and a nice new look, which i did but i kind of got over it and want my s14 back! I miss her.

So....

How much would you guys pay for the car i was mentioning?
Thanks.

varies, clean examples aren't cheap
I paid ~6k for my 98 - auto and 200k miles
too much and still needing work but it was what I always wanted - stock, black, leather, SE
the ones you see go for less are usually piles with fake/cheap parts on them

Yeah, true. This one is in tip top shape, everything is fixed to par. I just think he may wan't to much for it considering its a Salvage title.

7-8k

I'd say worth 4k .... I've seen clean 350z at the dealership for like 13k n people selling them off the street for about 8-10k non salvaged . So 4k is about right 6k to an idiot

I have ppl offering me $2000 for my 97 kouki (salvage) because apparently, fixing the cracked bumper and worn door hinges are $3000 work according to him.

Also how much is "fairly low" miles considered? If we are talkin' like 60k miles, then probably the $6k range. Otherwise, I don't think I would pay more than $4k for it

probably 2k and I would immediately break it down and sell it off.

I won't touch a salvaged vehicle title because when you have over $20K in modifications done to it, with reciepts and you want to have your insurance cover all those parts... they won't. So if you wreck, get stolen, the salvage titled vehicle is worthless. Thats the reason why people are low balling you on your Salvaged kouki. Even if the damage is fixed properly, the title is what matters, it has to be clean, never salvaged or rebuilt title in order to have full coverage for all those awesome goodies ppl plan on putting on it. Case in point, friend with his Sr20DET S13 got sideswiped and the driver's insurance totaled out his car and gave him $1,500 for it even though he had a lot more parts on there with receipts, reason being was his car was a salvaged car. His insurance company would not give him full coverage and was taking a risk driving it.

2 thousand is the most you can expect from said title. Unless you can find a fanboy or some jdmtyte kids to take advantage of.

No way in hell would I prefer a 350z over a S14.
