hey guys i have a 91 S13 Fastback SE, power everything, its black great paintjob, has a dent the size of a dime on the passenger door, new Kuhmo 712 tires(1k on them), has two spots of rust under the spoiler, interior is perfect leather except for 1 inch tear in drivers seat, i have hte entire interior sound proofed with about $600 worth of speakers, new power antenna, replaced rubber shift boots and tranny fluid iwth MT-90, everything on the car works perfectly, will need timing chain done b/c at idle i hear a thunking that goes away with gas, and i also just put on new Axxis MM brake pads, its oil has been changed regularly, and has 88 almost 89K miles on it. So what could i expect to get for it? I'm lookign to upgrade to something without pop-up headlights, and non-hatchback (just dont like either of them) but im going to stay with a 240 all the way <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':D'> &nbsp;Thanks guys!

Did you try Kelly Blue Book (http://www.kbb.com) ?

I'd say around $5500, that seems to be the going rate for them in the condition you described.

I'd say ~$3600...

most '91s I see for sale in my area sell for about 3K...but thats with 110K+ miles...

basing it on eBay, recyclers, autotraders, etc I'd have to agree with Shiq on this one.

I guess this is a double edge sword. I wish it was more valuable, so we could get better resell for them, but then, I'm glad that it's cheap so that true enthusiasts could buy them real cheap as their weekend toy, fix it up and build up this community.

well it all depends on the area your selling the car. here on longisland that car would go for like 5grand.... look in the paper and see how 240s are priced in your area.
