Testing Waters: '94 Accord CD6 Sedan
It's time to sell my beloved '94 Accord EX. I was planning on doing an H22 swap, but because of lack of time (and space), I've decided that I am just going to sell this and get a BB6 Prelude.
I'm not selling it just yet, I need to find a Prelude to replace the Accord within a short time of selling it. I'm just asking around to see whether my estimate will match other people's.
Anyway, here we go. It's a '94 EX leather, bought new, one non-smoking owner. It's never been in an accident and has been very well maintained, by me. The only thing I didn't do myself was the timing belt/water pump, which were both replaced at 87k. The car now has 107k, but still runs strong (has the F22 Vtec in case that matters to anyone interested). New Brembo blank front rotors that I had slotted and drilled, along with a set of PBR ceramic pads.
The car had a complete paint job done last november. It's acrylic enamel, and the car was sanded down right to the bare metal. There was some rust on the quarter panel, which was cut away and repaired as well (you can't tell there was ever any rust).
Car runs fine, A/C still blows cold (although I should note that it doesn't blow as cold as it should/as it used to).
Everything is still stock and the interior is clean. Will come with stock speakers and Eclipse HU.
So, I'm not going to disclose my price yet: I want to see how realistic it is. How much do you think this car will go for? Located in NY by the way

100k miles with timing belt just done and fresh paint, you could fetch $3500 reasonably on the open market. You COULD be like all the dick dealerships and upcharge the accord to $5000+. One of my friends went looking at a 1995 EX sedan that had 175k miles and the dealership wanted $4900, and the car looked like shit. People are going ape shit from 4-bangers right now, just mention in the ad what your gas mileage has been and people will call you like crazy...
random question, how much did the paint cost you, did you use OEM (dealership paint) or did you use aftermarket matched closely to dealership paint?

haha, I'm guessing that sky-high gas prices haven't affected me as much as everyone else! I never actually thought about it that way, but you're the fourth person out there that's told me about the market's need of 4 cylinders! I guess it's because the accord is only one of three in my Honda family, and the other two are CR-V's, so I guess gas hasn't hit me all to hard.
Anyway, I don't plan to rip anyone off. Gosh, I was planning to sell this one for $4000, which only leaves me with $2200 since I paid $1.8k for the paint. The paint was computer color-matched and I believe it's PPG paint.
