What I don’t understand is why people rip on one another about something being overpriced. Ok, if it is, the seller will soon find out and adjust the asking price. More power to the person if they can get that kind of money out of someone. I know most people, especially in a tough economy are trying to make any extra money they can and if its a few extra bucks on a car then so be it. Can’t hate a person for that.

Kbb has nothing to do with a certain market. I bought my 97 with 27k on it for a little over 20k 3 years ago. I dont think his is too far off. As said before, its worth whatever someone is willing to pay for it. This kinda stuff is getting out of hand. Be nice and grow the fuck up.

exactly same can be said about low ballers… more power to them if they can get something for a low price

i think he should be able to sell the car for whatever price he wants if someone pays the price they should of done research before doing so

if they didnt then they probably dont have a problem with money or are just stupid

PERSONALLY i think its a fair price for the car …

I dont even care if its a fair price for the car, i dont want it, nor do the people that are posting about KBB and giving their opinions that the price is too high. Really, why go in someones for sale thread and tell them what to sell their car for?

ummmmmm i bet u , if u were serious, i know your not, but if you were…i could go and find an MR2 as good in shape as yours with mileage around the same for that price or lower… maybe not listed price, but def final sale price…

so next time say “find me 2 or 3 MR2’s like this” that way u play it safe 🙂 cuz u can find the most ridiculous deals on cars in general… and 2 grand is enough to find a good mr2 😉

Seller can ask whatever he wants for it.

People can offer to pay whatever they want for it.

Once the two parties find a happy medium, a sale happens.

Welcome to the Market.

If the asking price is too high, so what, that just means it won’t sell. That’s not hurting anybody.

I’ll leave this here.

There is also a yellow Mk2 Mr2 I remember for sale for 50K from a **dealer** with low miles.

And I know some Crx’s in great condition that sell for $8k or so, when NEW they were ~12k.

Go figure.

If they sell, they sell.
