I'm looking for my first car, and I found a 1987 Toyota Celica GT 5 speed for $700 OBO.
The body is in pretty good shape, but the owner says it needs a tune up, oil change, and possibly a power steering pump.
It also has no radio.
The price of the car is not on KBB or Edmunds since it is older that 1990, how much would be a good offer to make on this car and how much do you expect the repairs to cost?1987 Toyota Celica GT?
Buy a newer car between 1998 and 2004. I Woudnt buy something from the 80's. Also, because of all the repairs it needs.
Do you know the buyer? He could just be selling it to you to get it off his hands and it dosent work and is mice infested.1987 Toyota Celica GT?
you should offer about 300 dollars because you are looking at at least 600 dollars in repairs.
its not a good deal.1987 Toyota Celica GT?
650$ and the repairs will cost about 120$1987 Toyota Celica GT?
Make certain the headlight doors open. Make sure it drives straight, doesn't overheat, and that there's no clicking sound when turning.
The 3S-FE is a pretty dayum reliable engine. If it's not belching smoke and all the above stuff works, $700 is an okay price. I'd offer $500 but have the extra 2 $100 bills in my pocket in case he refuses.
