95 SSEi w/Super low miles

Post by 94SilverSSEi »

So I've been looking at 92's-95's and found one with 40k for $7500
This is pretty steep isnt it
KBB prices it between $3200-$4700
I was thinking in the $3500-$4000 range
What do you guys think I would really like to buy the car but don't want to get ripped off

Not even close to being worth $7k. Maybe $4500. They think the miles are going to sell the car alone, and some unsuspecting person will fall for it. I'd say pass..

Overpriced. Maybe half that.

I'd say $3500-$4000 wouldn't be bad. It is old, yes. But it is low miles, so if this is the car you've been looking for it may be worth it to pay a little more.

Not sure of all, but my mom's '95 bonneville had a series II. First year for them IIRC.

95 is an oddball year for the Series 1, especially the L67. It's a crossbreed internally speaking.
