Default How much for an 02 Gs300 Sport Design?

I have an 02 gs300 sport design and want to sell it but I was wondering if anyone knew what they could be sold for. Mine has 111k miles on it. Its in really good shape, new tires, some new suspension parts along with a new intake on it. Any suggestions? Thanks!!

Okay thanks! I'll take some pictures tomorrow and post them up. Also I bought the car with 100k miles for 6k say about 2 years ago if that helps in anyway, but tomorrow there will be pictures up. Thanks for helping!

Sounds like it's still very valuable. Sport Design are always worth a little more cuz they're rare. It all depends on overall all around condition. Would help better to pin point price range with great detailed pics. Also share any worthy details on driving experience. If anything seems off, suspension wise, electrical wise, etc. Be HONEST for a better transaction. Will be checking up! Hope to see more pics soon!

If you only paid $6k two years ago, you probably won't be losing all that much selling now. These cars have basically already hit rock bottom in depreciation, so they won't be going down much further with each passing year.

On the serious - probably around $6k to $7k depending on overall condition, options and color combination.

depending on color combo and such, 5-9k is realistic. don't expect to recoup money spent on mods. blue book is around 6k. add in a rare color combo and you could hit 9 with the right buyer/market. black/black won't get as much as a white/saddle.

I'm surprised there isn't a "What's my Sports Design worth?" sticky...

GLWS!

Here are some pictures sorry about it being dirty havent had a chance to wash it with all the snow we got in chicago. The interior is in great condition no rips or tears at all. The car is wired for subwoofers and done professionally. All maintenance was done by my uncle who owns a shop. All the parts I put on were from the dealer I habe the receipts for them. Timing belt was changed, control arms, ball joint, rear toe links, and caster arms were changed. The valve cover gaskets were also changed. I also do have the stock intake so that would go with the buyer if they wanted it back to stock.

Has it always been a northern/rust belt car? If it's been a California or southern car for most of it's life, you could possibly get $6.5k for it. It shows nicely in photos.

If it's been a rust belt car all it's life, you'll probably get right around $6k for it. Unfortunately, silver isn't the most desirable color. But it does look nice.

If it were white I'd have made you an offer. I want a white SD badly.

If you're serious about selling it, I would put the stock intake back on and put the OEM Sport Design floor mats in (if you have them) for the photos. Both the average Joe and the enthusiast would likely want this car in as original condition as possible.

Also - make sure to mention any little quibbles the car has. For instance, it looks like there's a decent sized ding/dent above the left rear wheel. Note whether all the power lock actuators work, whether all the HVAC servos work. Any known issues for cars this age should be mentioned as either working, having been repaired or needing repair to show you both know the car and that you're not hiding anything.
