Gf just inherited her dad's old car. It's a 1998 Nissan Altima, 28X, XXX kms on it. She wants me to sell it for her, but I'm not sure how to price it since it has some issues:

Needs new windshield
Has a bunch of dents and scrapes (pics to come) from a deer running into the front left fender and the driver door (right below the mirrow)
Right mirror has been broken off
A/C needs to be fixed

other then that it has new all seasons and has had regular oil changes

any suggestions on how I should price the car and how much I could get for it would be greatly appreciated!

$2000. The bad body condition and high milage is quite the turn off for most people:(

Compared prices on Canadatrader.com...most of the cars there were under 175,000KM and goin for $9000 +


So I say... around $2000-2500 seeing as theres so many flaws...

yea, you're probably lucky to get $2000 if at all considering the high mileage and body damage. If a deer messed up the fender and door, it's also possible that there's frame damage? that's also assuming it's got a clean car fax / car proof. If it's salvage, I doubt you'll be able to find a buyer for over $1000

I just sold mine in about the same condition for 1900 first day I put it in the bargain finder. Mine was a year older.
