MX3s These Prices Outrageous?

Post by Talon_66 »

Ok, here is a little background. In April of 2001 I bought a 92 MX-3GS, Power doorlocks, windows, 5 spd, with roughly 145k on it. I bought it for $6500 cnd then. I have since crashed it, and am currently looking for another one. But is it me or are these prices outrageous? Here I will post a few ads<p>(just a reminder all these prices are in Canadian!)<p>#1 93 MAZDA MX3 Precidia GS, 5 spd, V6, blk, 165,000 kms, sunrf, pw, pdl, CD changer, snow tires, service records, no accidents, exc cond $8700.<p>#2 94 MAZDA Precidia MX-3, pw, ps, pdl, sunrf, silver, 5 spd, V6, 119,000 kms $8500 obo<p>ok. So what do u guys think?
What should I be offering these whack jobs? I figure I should be offering around what I paid for my 92, 2 damn years ago!

I had never heard of an MX-3. I found a 93 GS last fall. Great shape except mising right front headlight and needed tires. Offered the guy 1000 USD. 1400 dollars later, I had a perfect car. only 80,000 miles. Wait and shop at the most unlikely places. I found mine in an ald man's garage. lol Have patience!!

I think I posted this somewhere else as well, but I bought my 96 RS in Dec 2001 for 9400 CDN, but it is mint, and only had 60500kms on it when I bought it. 11 months earlier I bought a 92 RS for 7 large. (and then wrecked it)

The prices for these car are all over the board. I sold 5 of these last year. 92 4 cyl black $5200, 93 black 4 cyl $3700, 94 red 6 cyl $7400, 93 blue 6 cyl $ 2900, currently have a 95 red 6 cyl onderground designd body kit, bosal exhaust, ractive intake filter, honkin stereo, $10,500 when complete and people lined up to look at it. I sell warranty with my cars so that may help the price. This latest projact is very nice and clean, the best that I've had in my paddock.
