I am contemplating selling the Celica for something else (I drive a lot and I need something with less miles). It's a 95' GT hatchback, with 178k miles on it. Here's the deal.

Good:
Maintenance records for pretty much everything
ALL fluids have been replaced (oil, transmission, clutch, brake)
Interior is in great shape
Infinity front speakers
Timing belt/water pump done by Toyota
Koyo replacement radiator
Transmission CV axle seal replaced
Valve cover gasket done
TRD oil cap
NGK spark plug wires/plugs
KYB rear shocks, Toyota front shocks
Sprint lowering springs
Scion headunit
Toyota brake pads all around
Paint is 7/10
Carpet padding behind panels + Dynamat
Pre-wired for a sub (wiring is under back seat)
Clear interior
TRD shift knob
New leather shift boot
A/C is cold, heater is hot
Scion 17" wheels w/ brand new Sumitomo HTR Z-3 tires
Silverstar low/high bulbs

Bad:
Radio trim is broken on the corner from modifying the Scion radio
Driver side window rattles
Body has some bondo between the passender side fender and bumper (fender was replaced and some red is showing from previous color)
Headlight tabs are broken (low beams)
Rear suspension clunks with going over bumps (most likely sway bar bushings)
Pulls to the right slightly

Pics:



























The car is by no means perfect, but in my opinion it's pretty damn clean for what it is. What would you think it would be worth if I put it up for sale? I've taken care of it since day one, and I do regular maintenance to it.

I know, but now I'm pretty certain that I'm going to sell it. I'd like to get around $4k, but when I made a thread selling it for $4k, no one ever responded back. frown.gif

around $2,000. Your best bet is to list it on Ebay.

2500-4000

used car with 178K miles wont sell for much. hate to break it to you. according to KBB.com the car will sell for a fair price of 3500. plus since its a used car the people buying it will fight to lower the price.

Nope not kidding. Look it up on kbb.com. You may see $2500 private party. Your car has very high miles, has suspension issues, broken headlights, bondo and its a 13 year old car. 98-99's are going between 6-9k in good shape and less in bad. You should not post this question if you are going to get offended and dont want to hear the real value.
