How much is my car worth?

How much is my car worth?

Note to all people wanting an auto/manual swap: You can buy my car..it's already manual, and the drivetrain is prepped for turbo -- MWR wants over $800 just for the clutch/flywheel combo.

1998 Toyota Corolla CE with:

00-02 ELP CAI welded/drilled for '98 and nitrous
2.25" catback, resonator, straight-thru muffler
Tokico struts
Intrax springs
RActive strut bar
ACT clutch (heavy duty pressure plate & organic disk)
Fidanza aluminum flywheel
Nitrous Express EFI kit wet shot with jettings for 35, 50, 75 shot
Denso IK20 plugs (cooler than stock for n2o use)
Clear corners
Black Celica shift knob and leather boot
93-97 Prism LSi alloys
P185/60/14 Falken Ziex 512s with lots of tread left
20% tint
Pioneer DEHP4000 CD player
2x Pioneer 760w amps (one RCA is broken on one amp..but I run the sub through it..so it doesn't make a difference)
12" Pioneer subwoofer
JBL Power Series P-632 6.5" speakers in rear deck
5.25" Pioneer speakers in front doors (pretty much shot..I should pull them before I sell)
12cd changer (needs a cleaning, maybe..one channel cuts in and out)

About 164k on the clock..no leaks, pulls hard to redline (15.943 1/4 without spray)...some minor body dings and scrapes..it's lived on Mobil1 synthetic for about 40,000 miles.

I'm thinking about $5000 as-is, or $4500 without the nitrous..we're moving to NH in less than two months, so I don't really have time to make it back to stock -- and there's no way I'm pulling the flywheel back out..lol

It has a CEL -- throws code P0041, I think (incorrect purge valve flow detected in emissions control system)..it's ran fine for thousands and thousands of miles..but I'm sure I could get it fixed if it's a problem. Vortex is supposed to have the part to fix it kicking around somewhere..

I want to buy a truck when we get to NH, and I'll use the MR2 as a daily driver until then..


To make a long story short, my parents are separating (really needed to happen)..and my Corolla was sold to me by my dad's step-dad, and I'm trying to cut all ties to and reminders of that side of the family..

Ley me get back to you tomorrow and will let you know something. Let's see your about 17 hrs from where i live so tomorrow I'm going to check if I can get ahold of some money and find out how much it will be to ship by truck or if its cheaper to just go and pick it up, buit first i need to get some money hopefully in two days time.

I'm more than willing to pick you up from any airport within 300 miles of here..

sorry to hear the corolla is giving you bad memories...

...well, in a bad way; in a good way it'd be a corolla smoking a GT-R...now THAT'S a nightmare.

welcome to the mr2 owners club

iAMconfused: It's not as much that it's giving bad memories, since I have some great memories with the car -- I just want a clean start

toyotaspeed90: thanks!

Anybody know of any Tacoma forums that focus more on power/offroad than airbags and show?

I hate flying, and I think i may have to do this with the usmc, huh go figure I have to overcome my fear. I really don't hate it. I just feel a bit uncomfortable. last year we had turbulence, very,very scary there landing in Dulles.

Let me know what you decide -- I'm willing to meet you somewhere, too..I can probably find a friend to drive with me so I can get back.

Did you do a retro fit to your 9th gen, or is that just a basic aftermarket headlamp with xenon filled halogen bulbs.
