hey guys
i dont want to but i need to sell my aristo to have enough for a deposit on a house. im not exactly sure what i can get for it so if you guys could give me a hand it would be appreciated. i dont have a pic but i'll describe the specs as much as i can. any help would be greatly appreciated.

I reckon sub 8k, if there's an aristo with highflowed turbos, built box, zorst, cooler, rims and ecu that can't sell even for 9k, as a buyer you would be silly to pay more.
U need cash for a deposit, I would think it would be worth 1.5 times as an asset

I personally would pay more for a stocker,due to amount of cars molested by monkeys,unless the mods were done by a reputable mechanic or tuner.
It's a shame these great cars are simingly worthless.
But as they say beauty is in the eye of the beholder. _________________

I did buy a stocker and paid more for it! NEVER again, go a bunch of problems off the bat that needed to be fixed - at least with some mods already done like IC, boost tap, gauges etc you save a few dollars on parts - even if you still have to fix a few things

Doesn't matter if its stock or been modified you run the same risks, if its been modified you just need to be a bit more thorough I guess and make sure the previous owner hasn't done anything dodgy.
Mine was stock apart from boost gauge, AM head unit, rims and coilovers
Everything was perfect except the coilovers. Had I known their condition when I bought it I would have swapped them out when I first got it.
My point of view and totally different perspective no money in stock aristo's no matter how good they're. Bought many Aristos for under $5500 which have varied in condition and mods.
Was a laughable auction grade 4 & i bought it for well under 5k because the bloke was building a house, getting married at the sametime and needed the money asap. Also had 6months rego put onto the car too which is a bonus
Pulled all the parts off of value and gave the rolling shell to JayVee for free:
Unfortunately project wont be going ahead now & will end up at the scrap heap after i put the car out of its misery to begin with....
Stock - modified there's some real HOS Aristo's out there and some rippers aswell but i wouldnt dare pay over 10k for any of these cars no matter how good & i love the cars to death.... _________________
