mitchell Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 Hi all, I have a black 93 N/A manual JZA80 which is pretty standard apart from upgraded alloys (17"). Mileage sits at 102k miles and I was toying with the idea of changing for an earlier Supra or (dare I say it) Nissan 350z. I've just seen a nice 3.0 SZ 1996 manual in electric blue, 54k miles, 19" alloys, veilside (prob not the real deal) at £6000. I've always been tempted by something a little different rather than performance so I know the arguments for getting a TT will be there. I just wondered if I could get some input on my cars value for p/x and whether £6k is a reasonable price? Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevie_b Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 £6k for an NA sounds high. Yours might be worth £3k? The blue one would be worth perhaps £5k, although the low mileage counts in its favour if genuine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mitchell Posted January 18, 2012 Author Share Posted January 18, 2012 Cheers Steve. Kinda my thoughts. Its a nice car and a little different but at the end of the day its just an NA so thought 5k rather than 6k. At 6k I can get a lower mileage, younger 350Z. Hmmmm, guess I see if/ what the guy comes back with! Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
add heywood Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 A standard 93 N/A with 100k would be £2.5k ish... Sorry to say you would get nowhere near £5k for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Havard Posted January 18, 2012 Share Posted January 18, 2012 I sold my facelift NA 18 months ago for around £4500. It had 94K on the clock but I only paid 5K for it with 78K on the clock neearly 5 years ago. Either way, 6K for any NA is over the top unless it is super mint with low miles. H.

l33wgn Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 That electric blue NA is being sold by platinum autos...... You should see if anyone has dealt with them in the past. See if you can get some seller feedback. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SPG Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 Summer time or there abouts should see some better prices for the N/A boys. I will be selling the N/A-TT i bought for the Mrs in the summer time, once it has been tidied up and lightly upgraded. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seba Posted January 19, 2012 Share Posted January 19, 2012 4500£ is really a great price for an n/a even for a facelift one. Like Heywood says 2500£ for a 93' supra is the going rate, but don't hope for much more unless it's in really good condition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mitchell Posted January 23, 2012 Author Share Posted January 23, 2012 Cheers guys. The bloke hasn't come back to me so clearly isn't interested in moving things forward. I'm in no rush so will keep an eye out for some deals! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pudsey Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 Scratch my comment - as even I had become confused. I really like the blue though - very nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
j_jza80 Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 I wouldn't say any NA is worth over £3k now, unless it's museum quality or has a 6 speed box. A 350z will be a far better car in most respects than an NA Supra, so if you can afford the running costs that's the way I'd go. if you pay £6k for an NA with a bodykit, it will be worth £3k as soon as you drive away from the dealer. However. I'm going to bring up the TT argument, as the running costs are similar to an NA if you don't 'floor it' everywhere, it will hold its value far better than an NA and it's a good base incase you decide you want a faster car at some point. I would definately choose a TT auto over a 350z. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevie_b Posted January 24, 2012 Share Posted January 24, 2012 if you pay £6k for an NA with a bodykit, it will be worth £3k as soon as you drive away from the dealer. Or, if it's got a Veilside bodykit, £1.5k. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My last car was a 350z and the insurance was cheaper than my na supra i have now and its was also better on fuel, the only down side was that the 350 is a 2 seater so with the supra i can do the school run.
