	| 1985 sprinter stock worth?? |  Wed, 26 October 2005 14:40   |  |  |  
	| Hi all 
 Today I was walking home (suspended licence..
  ) and while crossing the main street I saw what I thought was an AE86, I asked the lady if she was selling it, she gave me a phone number and said to call. Later I found an ad which amazingly was the same car from a while back, advertised for 11 grand. It was a stock standand Sprinter,(1985) that she bought from toyota, and apparently toyota sent her on a holiday to Singapore?? (Im only 19 so I guess free holidays with cars were a bit before my time). 150,000 ks reguarly serviced, but probably a hard 150 where I live, not sure what engine, all I know is 1.8...anyway what would you think its worth? 11 seems a bit high...

	| well .....  if you think about it any 1985 car being 20+ years old should only be $2000 if that ... 
 but i guess its a sprinter , so $20k

 It may be a Levin. There were a handful imported with 4AGEs and other JDM goodies.

	| Yeah, there was a buch imported specially so they could race the 86 in the touring car c.ship. They had all the good stuff, including swanky interior, full disks etc. Considering a JDM import will sell for 6-8 grand, mabey more for a modded one, then if this car is in good nick then it could be worth as much. If its in absolutely mint stocker condition then mabey, just mabey 11 grand

 yes it is that one, remember its for a chick, but 11 grand? is it gold plated? and dont worry, it was never going to be a drifter, just a daily driver..

	|         Alright now, lets get serious for perhaps uno momento
 
   
 You checked the red book yourself, did it say anything about
 a 1.8l engine, no it didnt! at all! ever!
 
 the 4A-C has like 58kw at fly, its a carby'd sohc 1.6l
 but if she's got an imported AE86, meaning its got a fuel
 injected twin can 1.6l with better front brakes, perhaps
 an lsd with disk brakes all round, power about 86kw to 95kw depending on who you ask
   
 I'm not sure the avg market value for jdm AE86's in australia is
 but considering there popularity, i wouldnt be surprised if she's
 asking for what she deserves

 Did I say that i got 1.8 from red book? no i diddnt, at all! ever!
 I got 1.8 from the ad, it could be incorrect, all i got from the red book site was an average price.

	| Lol I actually saw this on ebay a few weeks ago and thought "OMFG Takumi Tax has spread to ebay and multiplied!" ahhah. 
 I actually sent an email to the person telling them they had no hope in HELL of getting 11/12 grand for it let alone 4. I mean come on you can buy 5-6 year old cars for that price these days, not fkn 20 year old cars... Especially considering the thing is shtock.
 
 Lol @ 1,800 Litre engine. That'd own ANY engine
  . I can see god crusing around in his 150 meter wide car right now

 It's $5- for the car, $10,995- Takumi tax, collected on behalf by Wagga. Going to fund the 100kw+ vtec carby drift track. Don't worry, tofu stains soak out in water.
