$35 - $37k really?

I was thinking more along the lines of $28k tops without the rims....But then again, everything has to be taken into consideration and needs to be seen to be evaluated.

It depends on what state you are you there are some in NSW and VIC for going as low as 23-24 mark but they are non prem with high kms. The colour of the car also help to raise the value a little bit Eg : Like black as there are not many of them around. I would say roughly you should be able to get 28,000-31,000 max if you get around 30,000 you should be cheering. You should look up carsales and do an direct comparison which should help you found a suitable price to list at.

You have two things going against you. 03/04 and A/T, these fetch significantly less than say an 05/06 Manual for example. I hope yours is not Silver too as there is an abundance of silvers to choose from.

At the end of the day km's are pretty irrelevant when talking imports, we would all like to believe our kms are genuine and no one can guarantee that unless you owned the car from factory. Even log books can be made up. As someone mentioned above, chk out carsales as a general guide, some of those cars have been on there for probably close to a year.

Good luck with it anyway, and post up some pics.

Well i'm from a town in WA where people think my car cost $60k :(

Then you have your nose too close to your arse :)

Fact of the matter is if he'd done his homework he probably would have given it a second thought.

He was undoubtedly influenced by the prices at Fabcar and was expecting they ALL have over inflated Perth values.

You should learn to engage the brain before employing your fingers to type!!!!

    • Surely the merged entity will be called "Honda" given the relative company values. I've got to be honest, I don't understand how merging 2 companies that missed EVs (despite Nissan making the first mass produced one) will solve their problems
    • If you haven't bought the ECU yet, I would strongly consider buying a modern ECU. Yes it is very easy to setup and tune, however it is lacking many of the features of a modern ECU. The pro plug in is something like 10 or 12 years old now? Can't remember exactly but it is very dated now. In that time the Elite was released and now we have the Nexus platform.  I would strongly consider not buying the ECU that is 3 generations old now (especially as it isn't a cheap ECU!). 
    • Im happy for it as long as it means reanult gets the boot 
    • Sorry I should have been more clear with the previous post.  The block is a sanding block - picture something like this https://motorguard.com/product/motor-guard-bgr161-bgr16-1-rigid-psa-sanding-block-2-5-8-x-16/ The guide coat is the paint It's two separate things I was talking about, there is no "block guide coat". 
    • Maybe more accurately, you aren't just dulling the existing paint, you are giving the new paint something to 'grab on to'. By sanding the existing paint, you're creating a bunch of pores for the new paint to hook on to.  You can lay new paint over existing paint without sanding it, might last a year or two then sad times. The paint will peal/flake off in huge chunks. By sanding it, the new paint is able to hang onto it and won't flake off.  Depends on the primer you are using. When you buy your paint, as the paint supplier what grit of sand paper to use before you lay down the primer.  Use whatever you like as a guide coat. Pick a colour that really stands out in contrast to the paint. So say your sanding/painting a currently white car, using a black guide coat would work well. You very lightly lay the black guide coat down, then as you sand the car with the large block, all the high spots and low spots will stand out as the black paint is sanded off (or isn't sanded off).  When you buy your paint, hit up your supplier for recommendations for what paint to use for a guide coat if you're unsure what would work well with your setup.
