Default Need info ASAP please...buying a sc300 1999 tomorrow!!

hey guys, im getting this sc300 1999 tomorrow...the guy is driving it to my house tomorrow. i do not know specifics on this car besides that it has 127,000 miles.


now this is where i need help. i want to sell this car...not for its hgihest price but more as of a quick sale. all i have is the pics to go off of...i know you need more then just that, but asuming is bare minimum...how much can i resell it for? any known probs with this type of model?? what should i look out for??

if you saw this car on the side of the road with a forsale sign price at $4,000 would this be considerd a great deal?? like i said im trying to figure out a price for a quick sale

4,000 is too cheap for a good sale. a quick sale would be just that. my 93' was 4500 with 150k on it.

IF you weren't so far away, I'd probably have a friend buy it for that much.

cmon this can't be real.
there can't be 2 people out there that have no idea what this car is worth (the guy selling it to you and you).
I would be very suspicious of a 99SC with black interior for 4k.
It sounds like you are getting it for cheaper and I suspect its a scam or a reconditioned car.
if you don't know how to check a car out take it to a mechanic.

oh yeah and has everyone forgot about http://www.kbb.com/?
