I bought my completely factory GT with 190k for around that amount two months ago. Nice wheels on it though so I would see if he would go $3000 they are getting harder and harder to find.

Good luck in getting one!!

yeah, its OBDI so you might get away with a swap in the future.

200k its barely broken into biggrin.gif .

engines a plenty in ebay, here for sale inthe forums, etc. so. go with 3000 in cash, and a 200 dl check just in case. Offer.

ask about clutch, timing belt. radiator issues. axles. and stuff. Just make sure GL

Honestly, I would say $2500, but I doubt he would go for that. I would expect our cars to be cheaper, but because of the change in body styles, these cars won't fall belong $3k. I have seen some pretty high miles standing no less than $3k. I got mine for $3500, and it was a salvaged title car.

3,500 is right around KBB for a good condition celica that year. I say take it for a test drive and make sure you check the car completely. Listen for clunks and check that all electrical equipment work. Of course rust is the big thing. If its in good condition I would say 3000. The car has too many miles for 3500.

Good luck.

i would not pay that much for an ST.

considering by the time you get rear disk conversion and side skirts add on it will cost more then a GT.

sadly i would offer no more then 2000. i bought my st in great condition almost 4 years ago for 2500 and it had 112k miles. recently i bought a gt for about 800 bucks with 138k. there's better deals out there, you might have to drive a little though. good luck.

Dude i dont know if thats a very good deal, thats a lot and for that high a milage. there are better deals out there, i got mine for 1800, at 200k. however, if that body is in PERFECT condition then it would be something to think about. i would go over it with a FINE tooth comb

X2 toyotas are known for rock solid reliablity, but that price is WAY too much, i would negotiate 2500-2800

you can probably talk it down to 3000 or less. and kbb value doesnt change after 200,000. so its not as accurate for cars with 200k+ miles.

st, 211K miles, stock, id say $3000 and leave it at that. I just sold my 96 GT with 181K with a couple mods for $4000. so $3000 sounds reasonable.

Are you willing to travel at all? I have a black '94 gt hatchback with less than 100,000 miles, automatic transmission. One owner, no accidents, serviced by the same dealership for 14 years. Interior in great condition, exterior has some dings, chips etc. I am currently getting ready to sell. Albany is about 3 1/2 hours away from me.

I figured as much, but thought I'd throw it out there anyway. Good luck hunting!
