blueshark123 Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 Making this thread just to see what's out there and in case someone might be looking to sell their LSX 240z but may not be wanting to list it. Contact me if you have an LSX powered 240z you may be looking to sell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rags Posted February 17, 2010 Share Posted February 17, 2010 I'd low ball him. He doesn't want to drive his car anymore, just wants to build them. Something about once you finish building them you just want to move onto the next project. Joe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blueshark123 Posted February 18, 2010 Author Share Posted February 18, 2010 Say it isn't so Clive, surely your are not thinking of selling that beauty! He wouldnt let it go unless someone gives him 25-30k cash and even that is a steal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
palosfv3 Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 So what is an exceptionally nice LS1 Z worth ? Top dollar range ????? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EvilC Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 I think LS1 cars range from about 15k-25k depends on how much work has been done. Basic clean swaps with stock parts still on the car and decent paint....10-15k. Not saying my car is the nicest because there are plenty of Z cars on this site I would love to own....I have done, swap, mods to motor, brakes, suspen, paint, and other odds and ends. I think it adds atleast 5k to the value even if I have 15k worth of parts. So honestly I think $20k for my car is a great deal if you don't want to build one and your taste is close to what mine is but I have to add $5k to that price for me to even think about selling it. Some of these LSx cars I see on HBZ I think are great deals because all the work and time has been put in. I just started to like the build part of the cars, reason why I started another one. So how much is your time worth? Jeff is right, I wouldn't take less than 25k for it and I know I have much more than that into it but you don't build cars to make money and if one thought the price was high, I would say price it all out and build =P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
palosfv3 Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 Clive , I posed the question to see what Z people think the top end of the market for a nice turnkey V8 car is. There are some out there that want a V8Z but dont have the time to build one but have the money to purchase. Is the upper end $40k ? $50k?I know many will state that this is nuts and no one would pay this for a car but then we had a customer put over 6 figures into building a LS powered Z. So what is the reality of the market? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So what is the reality of the market? Larry, I think if someone can get $25k-$30k for their lsx Z car that has all the right parts...I say that is great! If someone can get $40k-$50k for one built by a pro shop that was a full resto....great! Anything above that just falls into the range, a fool and their money will soon be parted...and I don't mean that in a bad way. If money was no object to me, I am sure I would pay lots of money for some of the cars on this side. There is a lsx car here for sale right now for $40k.....hard to fetch that kinda of money on a DIY site but someone who has the money and really wants it may pay that somewhere else. The one or two people who will pay $40k plus for a LSx car doesn't mean that is market value. I still believe $30k is top end of the Z market, unless it is a flat out race car.

qwik240z Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 (edited) bump... I have not been on the site for a while so I missed this thread. Somewhere a bit north of $25K might get me to part with mine too. Boholio and Clive have seen my car and know how clean it is. http://forums.hybridz.org/uploads/500/med_On_the_Road_240Z_LS1_and_510_godbye_053.jpg Edited April 1, 2010 by qwik240z Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparks280zt Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 Some nice LS swapped cars have been for sale as low as 12k. Now is a good time to buy if you have money for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cygnusx1 Posted April 2, 2010 Share Posted April 2, 2010 (edited) Â Janaka had that red one up in Ontario tugging at my wallet for a long time... almost bit at that one. Â I am glad he kept it! Â He really loves it. http://forums.hybrid..._1entry710276 Edited April 2, 2010 by cygnusx1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EvilC Posted April 2, 2010 Share Posted April 2, 2010 (edited) A basic LS1 swapped Z will fetch $12k.....no way would that buy mine, Daves and a few other Z cars here. Not to put anyone's car down but I think Janaka had the nicest ls1 car for sale so far and the price was very fair. If I didn't have one, like cygnusx1 I would prob have bought it.
