Question by NewFather: Used Car Pricing – KBB, NADA, Edmunds?
I am trying to sell my 98 Mits. Eclipse Spyder GS-T convertible that only has 66,000 miles. The car looks amazingly good. KBB Values range from 7900-9400 for private party sale. NADA “clean – good” value is ~8200. And Edmunds lowballs at 6800. Quite a huge range!! I have only been posting on craigslist and using a black/white “for sale” sign. But I have seriously gotten almost 0 interest in 3 weeks. I have a guy who is offering 7350, does this seem fair? Or should I wait longer / advertise in autotrader etc.?
The KBB retail is 11,200 and I live in Bay Area Cali

forget the retail…that means zippo

based on those numbers I would list it at about $ 8490 and take anything over $ 8000

keep trying Craigslist. Relist it at least once a week so it is at the top of the hits.

*PLEASE READ BEFORE COMMENTING:
Yes I know the pictures have different rims and some make the car look like a model car but that is besides the point. These pictures weren’t meant to show you THE EXACT CAR BEING SOLD, it was to show you what the car LOOKS LIKE, (the one sold was the one from the moive, not all the pictures were from the same Eclipse). So yes I know the rims change in pictures but I just wanted to show what the car looks like.*
