Default How much is car for worth?

My motor went out on me the other day. I was going to do a swap but the wife wanted a new/so called reliable car. So i pretty much have a nice looking 93 sc300 sitting infront of my housewith a dead motor taking up space. How much can i sell car? Cars paint is pretty clean and so is interior (driver's seat has a rip in leather).

not running your screwed man..... you will never get what its even close to worth. Why dont you tell the wife to let you fix it for around$1000 it will be a reliable car who wants car payments anyways? your wife wont mind if you guys come out with extra money and your pocket instead of the banks, IM SURE

spend the money up front to fix it if you can afford it, so you dont have to bother with a monthly payment. engines in these cars are damn reliable.

regular SC's aren't really worth much as they are a dime a dozen, things like 5 speed, black interior, 97+ exterior stuff, rare color would all add value to a shell.

if it's a bone stock 93 tan interior SC300 auto your probably not looking at much $$$

My dad ended up helping me out. I bought him a new toyota corolla (he pays payments) to save him gas money and i will drive his 2006 maxima (he pays payments). So it free's me up to fix my lexus and still have a newer car (maxima). I'm glad my dad bailed me out. So now i'm looking for cheapest way to get lexus running.

The 3.0L is like nissans 2.4L and hondas 1.8L very well known to last and take a beating.
