you'd think about 12,000 but honestly it depends where your going to sell it? If you sell online, check E-bay and Cars.com because they run for around 8,000 for a nice stock GST 97 or 98. If you sell locally, i think you could get way more for it.

Local kids will bomb you with lowball offers.....but they're are a few decent people who will give you the price you want. Especially if you take them for a ride in it

Have you checked the kelley blue book value? I know that doesn't take into account the mods but you can get an idea.

A *lot* of times the kbb value is totally off. It's like either $2k too high or too low, mods excluded. Shining examples are the prices for 3g rx7's and mkiv supra's.

Yeah, banks and insurance companies will tell you exactly what your car is worth....My personal opinion though, you shouldn't take anything under $13,500.

its basically stock.. a few mods, but nothing huge.. back in '97 that car was worth what? 19? $20,000 7 years later and 40,000 miles... $13 and nothing less. if you say it is mint and it truely is.. this is a car mitsu doesn't make anylonger. Plus 2nd gen DSMs are nearly impossible to find in good condition with less than 100,000 miles on them. don't go ebay. either try autotrader.com or sell private and locally. especially if you take some 16/17 year old kid for a ride. not only will they be hella impressed with the performance, but also feel like a pimp when they see all of the LOOKS they get when driving by.

For the price range you guys are talking, you can get a 99 eclipse convertible.
