Official Is This Car Worth It Thread vol 3

What is this car worth?
Price listed for $16,000.
2006 Berlina Black, 151k miles. New motor with new OEM short block, all OEM parts (with receipts, only 270 miles on new motor) Body is an 7/10, interior is a 7/10 (a small tear in both seats). New motor mounts, brakes, tires, new clutch. Basically all stock. Soft top is decent condition, no rips.
Ran a carfax, shows 2 previous owners who owned the car for 5 and 6 years respectively, 1 minor accident reported that required radiator to be replaced. CarFax value is right around $12,500 and KBB is $12,600.
I figure since it has a brand new motor it may be worth paying more for.

Damn near $13,000, motor replaced, it's had a front end collision, and the paint and interior is only 7/10. Pass.

I know which car you are referring to. Owner is banking on the color combo (which is very desirable) for someone to pay the asking price, but rear bumper damage was not merely a small scuff. I'd pay that asking price if it was a 2008 or 2009 with 20k miles and clean body panels, but no way for that one.
@reversible That's definitely high. If all 10 VINs are in tact and there's no modifications, it could fetch as high as 25K, but 23-24K would be typical market. If they won't come down, there's others out there, you may just have to wait for the right one.
I went to see it for myself on Monday and verified that all 10 VINs are present, and the car itself looks pretty well kept for being a decade old. There are some minor scratches here and there but overall there's still a definite newness about it, almost like certified pre-owned that hasn't been detailed. Seller just came back with $25.5 firm; close enough to consider or let it sit/play hardball?

I'm used to waiting anyway. I've been looking for a GPW about 4 years now so passing another one by would be no sweat. (Of course, finally getting my butt in one would be nice too)

I was actually going to spring on this one until i found the Suzuka Blue with 20k less miles for the same price in San Jose. Honestly i think the price is good for our area. Maybe a tad over by 1-2k at the absolute most however i think they might be willing to negotiate since its not a DGDG(i dont think).Being in CA where we get top down weather almost every single month of the year (hell my friend rides top down in his new MX-5 ND when its 40 degrees out) these cars will naturally sell for more. Especially since many dealers know how good of a track car these are and we have some of the best tracks all within a 3 hour driving radius of the Bay Area. A big part of me wished i could have got the Laguna Blue but the lower mileage was a higher priority since this is going to be my daily for a few years.

Yeah pricing seems a little on the higher side considering the mileage but it is also in the bay so I can understand the price. Maybe if it's still available in a month I'll check it out. LBP is just too nice of a color to pass up.
