does this asking price sound reasonable? - Honda CRZ Forum: Honda CR-Z Hybrid Car Forums

I'm considering selling my car, converting my 370z back to street use and getting an 03/04 350Z to enter NASA's new Spec-Z race series.

Its an 11 EX-MT with 9200 miles and has black factory wheels with blue time attack rings on them, factory rear spoiler and black/blue clazzios.

I was thinking of asking 19000 for it?
Or would I be better getting another set of stock wheels before selling and then selling these outright also?

What a nice car you've got there?!! Man, that would fit for only two, right? why sell it?

I would say change out the wheels. The more stock you can make your car the larger in numbers would be people that could be potential buyers. I'm an example of a guy who would give little consideration to a car that had mods that weren't something I would buy and to be honest I would never buy those wheels for my car. But then again, I'm an old fart set in my ways.

They are stock wheels just painted black, and seat covers which could be removed. I would probably remove the covers and sell them on the forum.

As for the rims.... if someone slightly local to you but alittle more north wants to meet up with you to swap rims temp. then come alittle more up north to meet me to swap my stocks back for theirs, if thats understandable?

Also ment to say to checkout auto trader or go to a dealership that has used CRZs and see what the going price is and base off that. Besides that im clueless.

in comparison for you, I just found a 2011 EX w/Nav, auto and has only 6K on it for $18,500. I'm thinking about checking it out. its also at a Honda dealer, Honda "Certified". not only does it have the remainder of the factory warranty but all certified cars have an extended warranty at no additional cost.

this just might be my last car (I'm an old fart too) so the extended warranty is a BIG deal to me.

Yeah, the wheels have to go. I've got over a hundred views on my autotrader ad, and no action. I'm going to powdercoat them a silver or hyperblack in the next week or two if noone swaps, more of a factory color.

Also, gonna check with carmax and see what they offer and what they say it would be worth with the wheels changed. If I recoat the wheels, the springs are coming off too. Seat covers are already off.

That price is right in line with private party values on KBB. Seems fair. The low mileage is what helps.
