Some douche who is also a member on here, attempted to pull the kbb card on my 89 hatch. So he could get money on top of the pos he was considering trading.

My God why hasn't a mod locked this?

240's are like cockroaches (S13's at least), there everywhere, plus they weren't low production numbers. This is why Kouki S14's are priced stupidly, not a lot made, and the fanboi's are all over them.

Banana_Cute

Kelly Blue Book dont give a fuck what this car can do, or why is it so hot to get.

Its a fucking 240sx. relax. People will try and sell these cars to make a quick buck to buyers who are willing to.


I just saw a SALVAGED TITLE ZENKI. for $5500.. AUTOMATIC. fuuuccck. Im sure the owner got it for half that price. and probably used the car as a daily.

If you wanna know what will happen to the value of the s chassis cars all you gotta do is look at the price trends of s30s. A few years ago you could get a very nice example for 2-3 grand, fastforward to now and the price has risen to 6-7.

The 240sx will become a collector classic eventually and when it does, the value will rise

Maybe 10 years from now when all the shitty ones that are wrecked from the Dorifto Wanna Bee's and the rusted out ones are in the junk yard.

When finding a clean one becomes rare, then you will see the price go up. Damaged, rusted, or poorly maintained ones will not be affected.

Kbb said my car is worth 4k, I wouldn't pay that for my heap of scrap metal...

Im not paying more on insurance because you think your 240 is worth the drifter tax that dumb kids put on them.

landins13

there are far too many $1500 s13's out there with no motor or interior. I bought my s13 pre-drift tax for 600 bucks with less than 100k on the clock a running dohc ka and no rust or body damage. yeah its got a brown interior but there were no cracks or gashes in anything.


its all relative. people a stupid and as long as people are stupid they will continue to pay stupidly high prices for 240's.

as a sell why the hell would you price your car at the fair market value when you know some idiot will pay you 2-3k more for it.

Hi,

Thank you for providing feedback concerning the Nissan 240SX values. We appreciate the level of engagement and knowledge from all the vehicle enthusiasts on this forum.

Kelley Blue Book does not provide a value add for vehicles that have aftermarket modifications. For those vehicles, we would suggest having a private appraisal. We continuously monitor the used-vehicle market for all vehicles, including the Nissan 240SX. Our valuation methods include analyzing data from auctions, dealers and seller’s listing prices. This data passes through several statistical models to produce a Kelley Blue Book Value on a weekly basis.

However, thanks to your input we are taking another look at the Nissan 240SX values and will make adjustments if necessary. If you have any other questions or follow-up comments, you can reach me via email at [email protected].

Thanks again!

AJ
Manager, Vehicle Valuation

hahahahaha...

You guys keep destroying them, part out, drifting, doing shitty mods, and changing owners hands like a petaphile in a playground.

After 20 years the value is based on the what the owner is willing to take or a buyer is willing to pay. If it doesn't sell, hold on to it... its just like stocks, just because the market is down doesn't mean you have to sell!!

I use to flip cars in high school... bought a '85 XJS w/ k5 miles on it for $7500, still had the factory plastic on the back seat... sold it a year later to my friends uncle for $17,500.

Zilvia member Full Lock sold his S14 Kouki with RB26 for $45K... $45,000... its all about the seller and the buyer.

I will never.. yes, Never, sell my S14 Kouki only because everytime I see one parted out or Drift Destroyed, just means it became that much closer to being one of the last ones!!

enjoy

what a useless thread...

KBB isn't nasdaq and it certainly has no interest in lowered values.

You can't just figure in the supply and demand... there is also a thing called an OPPORTUNITY COST.

KBB does not calculate this. the used car MARKET does. Petitions will be willingly and knowingly be ignored.

Tantwoforty

i got mine for $1000 original owner, 5 speed, clean title, SE, 210k came with factory manual and jack, smelled like old Mexican man. the suspension sagged on the driver side from his tubby butt dailying it for years, came with like 4 Spanish cd's

These are only worth what people will pay for them, whats it worth to YOU? normal people just see a shitty old nissan.

RB Me

9k firm, no lowballs even though im way over priced, i dont need to sell etc. saving for a house blah blah

2 months later, f all you haters

4 months huge price drop 8900 firm

2 years later. still for sale.

ixfxi

its rare not because its special. its rare because nissan was going through its financial crisis due to new 97 crash standards and due to the yen losing value (at that time). besides aesthetics, there is nothing that makes a 97-98 more valuable than a 95-96. in fact, most prefer the 95-96 due to them being obd-1


engagement and knowledge? you sure you're talking about the folks on zilvia?

SupaDoopa

You bought a 240SX with the intent it'd hold it's resale value? You fucked up.

Brentbohn

WINNING! left a voice mail for AJ today... see what he has to say for our friends at KBB... this guy found this forum on his own after I emailed him with request to review the pricing on 240's

kbb obv doesn't give a fuck about mods either.

PeaceOnesxWai

Lol @ this post

KBB determines the price and condition of stock cars, 95% of the cars for sale here on Zilvia have been modified, drifted, crashed, non-op etc.. I think KBB is very fair on the price they listed 240s at for what owners do to them. I just think half the owners selling their 240s are idiots, over pricing their car with used parts and o-so-much time with labor. Booho, 500 hours on fixing it, it still looks like sh!t

I bet OP registers his car under $1k to the DMV anyways.. another reason why KBB "under" values 240s

PeaceOnesxWai

lolol thats 90% of all S14 sellers

zerodameaon

If you want kbb to reflect junk like this
1990 Nissan 240sx, Cleanest on Craigslist.
1993 240sx
1991 Nissan 240sx 5spd "CLEAN TITLE"
1993 Nissan 240sx fastback 5 speed 149k All Original & STOCK!

Then you are even more of a idiot then the people posting these cars. These cars are so artificially inflated anyways its stupid.

QQ i got ripped off for my kouki then.

lude4life13

Really? I didnt know most people preferred zenki's over kouki's. I guess I should sell mine and get one for half the price in that case..

atom

I bet a well kept bone stock Deep Fuschia Kouki would be worth a ton of money 15 years from now.

fliprayzin240sx

240sx got the drift tax but the Supra guys got the Fast and Furious Tax. I still cant believe how much those cars go for after that stupid movie. Pre-2000, you can find a 93 MKIV TT Supra with high mileage (180k) for less than $12k.

bwahhah the "civic" of the nissan world will be a collector car??? dont think so

badbob2121

Hes right. You may not know this (being from CA) But in other states, OBD1 vehicles do not require emission testing, only a simple safety inspection.

If i wanted a s14, i would buy a zenki over kouki without question...

Why is this a thread? The cars are only worth what people are willing to pay for them. Instead of petitioning kbb, maybe you should petition the retards who are paying 5k for an S13.

New sig quote right there.
