I was curious to see what my car would be worth here in Canada?
Option list :
Black leather seats
Power seat package
Self dimming mirrors
Heated front seats
Bose surround stereo
Cd changer
19" wheels
Sport shifter
aluminum "look" finish through-out
Fabspeed headers and exhaust
Evo intake
Techart front lip
Custom built sideskirts and rear spats
DPE S-20 wheels(20" with Pirelli p-zero nero tires with only 1,500kms)
Jic coilovers(pasm disconnected but can easily be switched back on at dealer)
Car only has 21,000KMS
No accidents but is a US car.

Any ideas what it is worth??

 

You just finished it and look perfect right now. Time for new toy? what next

 

This is typical for me,just get bored fast.I find the fun in building the parts and shocking people along the way,LOL!
Been through 30 or so cars in my time but really not sure if I do want to sell it !
The money in my bank account would be sweet though !

Stacy, I just sold my 24,000KM, 2006 C4S Cab (originally a US car). It had an MSRP of US$123K so it was highly optioned however not modified except for the addition of a Dennison iPod adaptor. It sold in about 10 days for CDN$87,000 to a buyer from Switzerland. I listed it in the Vancouver Sun, on Craigslist, AutoTrader(print and .com) and on Rennlist.com. Interestingly I got some interest from US buyers via Rennlist (none were very serious), some serious expressions via Craigslist, nothing from the AutoTrader (which came as a surprise) and the eventual buyer from the Vancouver Sun print + picture ad. Everyone it seems is aware of US prices so I priced my car at the US price for an equivalent car + 10% to account for import duty of 6.1% and import costs. For higher priced cars (and many more modestly priced ones) it seems many buyers are willing to explore the US market so my strategy was to price at their point of indifference. That is to say my price point was set where "all costs in" a buyer would not save (much) by buying in the US. My Swiss buyer told me that it has also become increasingly popular to import cars from Canada or the US back to Europe as the price difference there is significant.

Good luck with your sale!

 

Your pricing strategy seems to be the only way to sell a car right now. I know I applied the same logic when I made an offer on my (Canadian-spec) car... what would a US-car cost me "all-in" plus a little for the convenience? To my pleasant surprise, I got it!

Edgmontvillage - congrats on your RS! Post pics when you get it!

Justatoy - good luck with your C2S and keep us posted on what the next toy will be

 

LOL,I just put it up on craiglist for a good dollar.If it goes,it goes !
If not,no biggie...I really do like the car !!!!
This is one I would miss !

 

Wow, if it does sell, any hints on what's next? Something Italian perhaps ? Or maybe just a nice extra chunk of change

 

Link?

 

I am thinking that by the time you pay trucking fees,PST,GST and Duty(6.1%) this may be a good deal.

 

Stacy,

You are funny, get it done sell it, on to the next one.

You should just get into car tuning and sell the products to other drivers.

I have a chance to buy another property so I do think I really may be motivated to sell the toy(car).
Anyone interested PM me an offer.
I do realize the prices on the US models have dropped and I will be very comparable and a bit better than if you imported one.
Also mine comes with some aftermarket goodies as well as the stock parts !

Car now has 23,XXX KMS or 14,XXX miles.

To reply to the the PM's

Looking to get $73,500 OBO.....

I was just looking at autotrader.com and see that cabs(non-S) are sitting in the high $50's to low 60's US...so with taxes,duties,exchange and aftermarket parts mine is a great deal for a fellow canadian! And no hassle getting it here(to Canada).
And yes mine is a "S"
