im gonna be selling a 91 tsi auto soon but was wondering if i could possibly get more than 2000$ for it, its stock with about 80-85k miles on motor and trans and i think a little more or less than 140ish K miles. ill get a more accurate answer soon but yall let me know what i might be able to get for it.
thanks-keith

i looked it up on pda.edmunds.com and it says the tsi awd 91 is worth 748 through private party. That can't be right!

Just to give you a idea.
I just sold a 1991 Talon TSi automatic with 83k miles on it and a tranny that was rebuilt about a year before i sold it. It also had a tranny cooler installed infront of the radiator.
This car was near mint with a 2.5in turbo back, 2g manifold, 14b turbo, boost controller, and a K&N filter and brand new dunlop tires.
Eveything including a/c worked and i had just put a new head gasket and all new belts on it.
Car went 13.8 on its only trip to the track.
I had it up for sale every where and the best i could get for this near mint talon was $2200.
1st gen DSM`s just dont have any resale anymore and the longer you keep them the more value they loose. Especially automatics as there is almost no market for them.
I have seen ones as nice as mine go for $1500 on the DSM trader so i guess i am lucky i got what i did.
I am sure this is what you were hoping to here but i hope it gives you a idea of what they are worth.
Heres a pic of mine.

 

yea but his is stock so it wont be that much

 

I'll give you a grand cash.

 

please sell him the car the man is CARLESS

 

I find those resale numbers depressing. I wonder if I could get even 1000 dollars for my car the way it is now. I don't think I'll worry about that, I plan to hang onto it and as long as you hang onto a car, you don't have to face the depressing reality of depreciation.

 

That's why I own a 2001 ls1 that will beat the living shit out of anything you'll ever be close to owning. Carless my ass. Ignorance is bliss.
