MA70 with lots of extras, whats a good price?

[roystunna]

So while window shopping on craigslist, i came across someone selling an 88 hardtop turbo supra with a 5 speed 1J swap. I go to look at the car, and it looks like it has been recently painted maybe a year or less, has HKS hipermax II coilovers, HKS super dragger exhaust, HKS wastegate, turbonetics big single turbo,4" BMPC intercooler with welded IC piping, Greddy BOV, Drilled/slotted rotors, 18" Speedline wheels with falken tires (70% thread), motor has polished valve covers and intake manifold, Aeromotive AFPR, 550cc injectors. How much you think this car is worth? whats a good offer?

$12, take it or leave it.

Honestly, the question is, what's it worth to YOU? My car, to me, is worth at least 8k. Is there a chance in hell that anyone would pay that much? Probably not. If he's asking 5k, and you think that's too much, counter offer... Easy enough, right?

Remember: Nothing is worth a penny more than what someone is willing to pay for it.

 

[roystunna]

cool, got it for $2500

 

[te72]

I'd say you got a good deal then, so long as the shell is in good shape.

$2,500 is a crazy deal, you stole that thing from him. so lets see some pics asap..

$2500 dollars?!? How did you pull that off, give the seller a handy? I would honestly be worried if I got the car for that low!

Good thing though. Because it's a used MKIII with an imported motor, you will probably be dumping money into it like it was serious business soon enough.

$2500?? with a 1J Swap? WOW.

Well i got mine for $500 + $100 for the towing But it was half assed & what not. Lots of engine work to be done.

yea long story short, guy got the car as a gift and didnt want it, and didnt know what he had obviously, plus someone broke into the car and stole the AFCII and aluminium radiator so he wanted to unload it asap!. Car is not running thus the price (just missing radiator, battery and ignitor). Will post pics soon.

By the way, when an MA70 gets a 1JZ in it, isn't it officially a JZA70?

 

[roystunna]

Not unless it gets the right hand drive dash and other JZA specific tidbits (emblems etc)

That's a great deal... with a radiator and AFC I would've said it was worth 7+

PICS OR BAN!!!! yes i was yelling lol

 

[roystunna]

*update* there has been a few thefts around my area, this car for one had the radiator and AFCII stolen, then someone just had a whole turbo setup stolen from their car yesterday, so for that reason i am playing it safe and will not be posting pics of the car, sorry guys, maybe when things cool down or before i part the car out i may snap a couple pics.

No, its not.

Also im curious, how would a local thief benefit from you posting a picture of your car?
