Are you interested in every Corolla for sale?

With all options and a perfect interior the car is only worth $700 on Kelley Blue Book. Only an idiot would pay $3000 for a $700 vehicle, sorry.

Only an idiot would pay $3000 for a $700 vehicle, sorry

There are tons of idiots out there that'll probably pay more than that for the car. Just check out ebay.

Then its a sad world. I bought my 240 for $1500, it was worth $2300 at the time of sale. If supply and demand is your answer to the price being jacked up, buy a 240, in my opinion a faster better handling car. I owned a 1987 AE86 and bought it for $2000, but it had a perfect body and paint body, and a perfect interior(almost as if it had been garaged from the day it got home from the dealership) and only 110,000 miles on the odometer. It was an okay car but my 240 is far superior. Just my $ .02.

700 dollars for a AE86?, if you can find one for that price in southern california then you buy it buddy, and turn around and sell it for a few grand more.

What you say is true 240sxdrifter. The 240 is also a more forgiving car for beginners. You can pretty much screw up a turn and still recover from it.

However, there's still no reason for you to jack this guy's thread and tell other's to go buy something else. It's their car, let them sell it for what they think it's worth.

Sorry to jack the thread, it was not my intention. My intention was merely to point out the car is not worth $3000. I don't care what car they buy I just don't like to see people get their pants pulled down over the price. Just trying to look out for other people.

[ACDSupra7]

Maybe $2000 would be a bit more reasonable?

ya i know 3K is a bad price. It's all thanks to Initial D and Ricer magazines trying to cover drifting. it pisses me off. the reason a lot of people used to have them is cause they were good cheap drifters not like over-expensive pieces of crap.

i might get one with some slight damage for 300. lol

and yes supra, i am interested in every 86.

You say that and yet you say you're interested =\

[laurenh84]

0k guys ( i'm a girl), the reason i put $3,000 on there for the price is because that is what someone told me to do. i dont know the first thing about drifting or what it is. i had just recently found out about two weeks ago that people use cars like mine for that. i wasnt even looking to sell my car at that time. notice i also put " OBO". i didnt mean for anyone to think that i was trying to screw someone over by putting that price, i was just trying to get a feel for what people had to say about it and see what i could get for it. it is still on the market if anyone is interested. i would also consider trading for a sportbike as well.

[DonTrueno99]

Do you have a photo of the car? Im interested, as for the price...we can negotiate. Thanks.

[laurenh84]

i dont have any pics of it but i can get a digital camera and take some, gimme a few days though. as for being interested my name and numbers are on my first post so if your really interested gimme a call, you'll have better luck getting ahold of me by my cell phone.

I’m here to support you on your sell. KKB can suck it for all I'm concerned. KBB may say it’s worth $700, but they don’t know a dang thing about the demand behind it all. I sell 240s every month and regardless of what KBB says 9 out of 10 I sell it way more than what they are worth. For the sake of argument... let's say you do sell it. The kid that buys it is going to be happy; not because he's dumb, but because he is happy with it. It just so happens that these are legendary cars for the sport. These cars aren't churned out like the FWDs. It's not like you can drift with a Ford Focus, Honda Civic, or Dodge Neon. BUT, if you do happen to find someone that sells theirs for $700....buy it, then sell it for a couple thousand more (which is smart). It can be done. That’s all I have to say for now...Good luck on the sale!

[laurenh84]

i like you, we should talk more

there may be a large demand for 86's but that's still doesn't give anybody the right to go and rip people off by making them pay $3,000 for a 20 year old car that is most likely going to A) have rust B) have a bad engine C) Have dents/damage D) Ripped Interior E) All of the above. I mean ya i've seen them go for that much and all after watching 86's for a year but still i mean in the end its sort of piracy. It really all depends on the condition of the car. i mean a few years ago 86's were good because they were CHEAP drift cars that were good at drifting stock now it's like expensive as hell. i mean honestly WTF? well i doubt this is going to change anybody's point of view, but it's not worth 3K to get an 86. get something newer that'll last longer.

my 2 cents.

good luck with the sale anyway.

God you guys are a$$ holes about this. She said that she only put the price down there cause someone told her to. Some person on www.club4ag.com might actually pay like $2500 for it if the engine is good. She apoligized about not knowing anyhting about the car and you still keep going off on it. It says plain as day below her name that she is new to this board and she might just now be getting into this sport so cut her a little slack and just talk to her as a person not as an a$$ and tell her a good price to try and sell it for. When you get pics up we will be able to tell more. But a running 86 with no dents and minimal rust will go for over $1500 on the West Coast.

[Tybalt]

I was not talking about all of you with that statement I made earlier. If it had nothing to do with you then dont worry, it was only for those being @sses about the price.
