thats really low on miles... I would say a good 7-8+ grand. I paid 3, 400 for my na with 70,000 miles, its a 1995.

Does he mean 85,000 miles? If so, then you shouldnt be paying no more than $6,500 or else you'd be getting beat. Well around here you would be idk what its like where you live

auto or stick? anyways, do not pay over 7K for the car. $6,200 would be good. These cars depreciate horribly. Friend just got a 96 N/A with 100K for $1,500.

Its an RS. Not sure if that does anything to the price.
The guy said 8500 miles...but ill ask again...

For 85,000 miles how much is it worth?

Re: '99 Eclipse, great condition, 8500 miles, what should i offer?

Its a big difference. Of couse I haven't seen the car so my estimate isn't very acurate.

85, 000 miles -> $5, 000 to $6, 500
8, 500 miles -> $7, 000 to $10, 000

8, 500 miles is really low for this kind of car. I have never seen one for sale with less than 30, 000 miles.

Unless he got a new engine. But a lot of fuckers do that they put 8500 and then when you call them they are like oops I forgot a zero.
