Zanardi 99' Good Deal?

I would like to know what a good deal on a 99' Zanardi would be, it is on ebay right now, but the dealer is local to me. Before I walk in I would like to have a number in mind. Also does anyone know what these went for new? Thanks for your help!

Miles: 38,934
Year: 1999
Color: Red/Black Int.
Model: Zanardi 1999
 
Before you do anything, I strongly recommend that you do a search on NSXprime for the vehicle's VIN. If the car you are looking at is JH4NA2120XT000134, you should get 10 topics back (11, now that this one has it too). This particular car has a long, sordid history. It's often called the "Glendale Mitsubishi NSX" because of the long time it spent at that California dealership.
 
Thanks

Thanks alot, it is the SAME VIN!!! Well guess its in AZ right now at the BMW dealership here is the email I just got back from the sales guy...

"Hello. Thanks for your interest in our car. We are asking $52,995. My bottom price will be somewhere around $50,000 You will need to bring your driver's license if we wind up making a deal so you can drive it. We must first come to an agrrement on figures, credit qualifications,etc. before the car gets test driven. Thanks."


All said and done, with all the damage and history of this car, does anyone know what its worth? What would be a good price?

I don't think anyone can answer that question accurately. The damage and history make the car unique; it's not like you can compare it with a bunch of other, similar cars. Heck, it's not even all that easy to estimate a price for a Zanardi with similar mileage in good condition (i.e. no damage history), just because there are so few Zanardis.

#8 is listed in Auto Trader for $49,999.00.
 
I also looked into this car, and some insider gave me a useful information that the car had been purchased for upper $30k by one of the dealers. Hopefully, this will help you approximate the fair value of the car.
