Need to sell the z. - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

I know this question is probably stupid, but i need the advise anyway.

I have a 2005 roadster touring with almost 70k miles on it. I got ripped off when i bought it in 2007. But anyway it has a few cosmetics damage like the usual tear on the top, scratches on the paint and power seat on the driver side is not functioning.

Well im undergoing some financial crisis and selling the z will help me considerably. I have to travel a lot to go to work and spend at least 250 bucks on gas alone.

So in that in mind, would it be wise for me to take it to carfax and get an appraisal? Oh and i just found out that it has unibody damage reported on the autocheck even though carfax was showing clean...

What do you guys think? Will carfax screw me over on the price?
Is selling it privately the only option even it takes forever to sell it?

Honestly, have you looked at whats the black book value of the car? I'd use that as a reference to what they'd pay you for the car.
