I am trying to figure a good price for my 1997 Kouki if I decide to sell it in a few months. I bought it from the original owner and its has been a California and Oregon car the whole time. No accidents or repaint, just have a few door dings from parking lots, 5 speed, Base model, 4 lug, no sunroof, 83,xxx miles, no check engine light, car runs strong and don't need anything really. I know these cars are rare and hard to find, so what do you guys think its worth?

Whatever you think its worth...just a matter of finding that one person who agrees with you to buy it.

This^

The market tells you what they are worth based on what people are offering and what you accept as a done deal. One guy might be willing to pay 4k while others see more value in it and pay more. Just find the right person. KBB is retarded by the way...

There was a 97 with 108k miles for sale in Minnesota last year for for 8k and it sold in a couple months. I paid 6k for my bone stock Zenki because it was mint, rust free, and located in Illinois already so i justified the price.

With the right buyer, you could sell it for whatever. Might take time but will be worth it.

Base model Kouki's came 4 lug? Hm, didn't know that.

Anyway, I would price it at $6,000 as the absolute highest. Some "enthusiasts" will ask for the drift-tax-premium just because it's originally 5 speed and Kouki but to me those are ridiculous reasons to hike up the price.

I think it's fair considering the little details that I know about the car.

KBB said $12k?!?!?!?!?!?!?! I paid $13k for my first S14 in 2001 for almost that much. Thing was from a dealer with 26k on it and single lady owned.
