Title: Just need peoples opinions
Post by: JetJumper on September 13, 2003, 05:26:00 pm
Well, I am planning on selling my White Fiero for sure.  It is in awesome running condition right now, I am just wondering what it is worth.  Would I be out of my mind to ask something like...$2000 for it or more???  What do you guys think


The reason I am going to be selling it, is that I need a vehiche that I can use for both winter and summer, so this leaves the fiero out of it.  I think I might get a GOLF or a JETTA DIESEL or something like that.  

The red car will also be sold, I have so far replaced the Ball joints on the front, brake lines all the way to the back, and the fronts.  The Flex hose on the front Passenger side.  The motor runs great...tires are great...Most of you have read the status of it from before...anyways..opinions please! :) :-[

I would reccomend a new windshield and run it through safety then you will find it easier to sell and worth more or at least $2,000 you want for it. Unfortunately the season for these cars is coming to an end so I would get it on the market as soon as you can.
For the winter why not use your dad's jag I do not think he would mind. Dan

Like Dan says, it will be worth it to have it saftied.  It is a nice little car and should bring at least 2000.00

Remember the market will disappear when the cold weather hits.

The red one would be a good project for someone, and you don't really have a lot in it.  It should sell as well as it has the 2.8.

While going to school you can't beat areliable beater in decent shape.  A Jetta diesel will run forever with a little care.  Good choice.

ask my brother, he might just do a stright swap or something. he has my old 92 Golf, everything engine is mint. (he redid everything as a "mechanic" project") but his mouth still waters for a Fiero.

All she would need for a safety is new rear struts.. A whole $40/each. :P


Call him up, 837-3602, ask for Dan.

Just spoke to my brother, He is willing to do a straight swap for both Fieros for the GOLF with safety.. Lotsa of new stuff on it. call hime to get all the info, it passes smog as well. he can have it retested for you alos so all you need is to plate it.

anyhow,

take care!

Just curious what the options are for the golf and the mileage is, also is it a 5spd or an auto?.  I have seen the car before if it is the one I am thinking of from last year.  But some pictures would be useful :)  I am seriously considering this tho.

Hold out till spring when the used car market goes from Buyers to Sellers!

I think you should be able to get more than 2K for your car. I bought my Prelude for 1700 and it was FUKKED so if your car is in good condition for sure ask for more!

If I had an extra 2K I would for sure come and take a look at your Fiero.

Good luck!
