Opinion needed on Collectors Edition Gen II

GMAN

Very rarely do I see a Gen II in my town for sale. This Gen II has 116,000 miles on it. What would these be worth now? He wants $6000 for it. I think it is a bit much. What do you think?

6k is actually not too bad considering how many miles are on it.

Yeah depending on a closer look at condition, I think thats a decent price.

hey GMAN, i checked out the actual website of the car and in several pics of the door panels. there SHOULD be an etching on the woodgrain that says "collectors edition". check out this link buddy. http://www.markviii.org/LOD2/collectors_edition.htm

I am well aware of what the Collectors edition should have on them. I am going to go take a look at it tomorrow. This car has collectors edition badging on the door trim. Is that normal for the collectors editions. It dosen't have a sunroof. I kind of want one.

It is a known fact, that the collector edition paint on the door panels comes off.

Since I own two Collector Editions, maybe I speak with some experience. The drivers seat in that thing is TOAST! I really dont know what it will cost to completely rebuild it, but I'd guess $500-$1000. Where are the CE floormats? About $100 on the auction site - unless the guy has sold all that he had. If the air ride hasnt been rebuilt, it will need to be soon, Less than $500 if you do it yourself (I can show you how). The exterior looks ok. I am not even concerned about the driveline. We all know the d/l is good for 200K. In my opinion the sale price should be reduced by the above amounts. *** CE's arent listed in NADA or Kellys ***

Too much. Offer $4,000.

It's worth $6K if it runs good with no Major issues. $1,000 to repair one seat?? You could do it for MUCH cheaper and the air ride is not just a CE thing. I would try to offer less of course, but if he won't budge and you want it then go for it! It looks nice!

6 is a decent price ive seen CEs go for a lot more on the ebay.... I came out of work the one day and there was a CE parked next to my 93 It was kinda beat up but it was cool to see one in person.
