Value of my Taco?

Just posted my Tacoma for sale on CL, what do y'all think is a good bottom dollar? Live in SC

That frame

I would pay 11-12k USD

Also if you remove the tints and polish the headlights it'd be worth at least another $500

 

Yep cleanup them headlight lenses, makes a very big difference and very easy

 

Locally, I would be $12,800 for it.

 

KBB is just under $9k but I would aim a little higher because a.) it's a clean first gen that everybody wants and b.) it's got that sexy, clean looking brand new frame.

I'd probably start at around 12 but realistically expect around 10k...also expect that many people might only offer what KBB values it at. All depends on the buyer and where you're located. Out here in Cali you could get top dollar I'm sure.

 

KBB cleary doesn't account for demand. These trucks have great demand due to reliability. My truck was valued at 8-9 when I bought it and I paid 12,500

 

I'm aware of that, that's why I also said I'd start by asking around $12k as well. But you have to know what the KBB value is regardless because without a doubt, people looking to buy are going to base their offers off of it, looking to get the price down as low as they can. I wouldn't let it go for KBB value though because demand is high enough that someone will be willing to pay more for it, especially in as clean condition as this one looks to be with the brand new frame and all.

 

I was lucky when buying my 04 earlier this year, it was being sold at a Toyota dealership for about $4k over KBB value (they wanted $20k for an 04 with 24.5k miles on it). Of course they gave me the whole "demand is super high for these trucks with low miles like this one" speech. I was willing to pay close to it, but when I got up to walk they offered it to me for $17k eventually. But I assume that's because they're a dealership and their goal is to move cars (especially used ones) as quickly as they can.

Privately, I wouldn't expect a seller to budge much on a high selling price unless the truck had issues like a salvage title or extensive damage, rusty frame, etc.

 

You got one with 24.5K miles? Damn that is practically brand new! Good find.

 

Yup, supercharged too. I saw it just minutes after they listed it on a Friday night and was there at the dealership 4 hours away the next morning an hour before they opened to make sure I was the first in to see it/buy it lol.

 

Not a chance I'd let it go for less than $12k. Tires alone are almost $1k and they have less than 2,000 miles on them

 

I see $12500,
