Charger Prices

[Cooter]

IMO, alot of it has to do with the new repop metal that is out there for these cars. Look at the 69' Camaro. Those cars ALWAYS bring money because people can buy the panels/parts. Well, same can be said for the second gen Charger now. Before AMD, you had to patch  panels, repair metal, and do things the hard way..Today, you just need a good credit Card balance.

THE AVERAGE PRICE ON NADA LOOKS ABOUT right to me a 69 R/T 30,000

[Dino]

I have an R/T clone (originally 318/904 white hat special), all hardware plus stripe minus badges.  Cop drivetrain, bigger brakes, bigger sway bar, extra leaf, the works.  Power steering and brakes, a/c, light package.  It has small bubbling behind the wheels, rear valance was hit and covered in bondo and the trunk floor will eventually need to be replaced although it'll last for quite a bit more time.  Interior is original aka worn out although the headliner, dash pads and door panels are still very nice.  I just received my fourth offer this season and had three offers last year.  All offered $25K, the last went up to $28.

Guidelines are nice but these offers are more than what they go for these days.  Why?  maybe because these people see my car run several days a week and never see it on the side of the road with the hood open.  I don't know.  the last guy that offered actually lives in my sub so he knows my car.  He has a mint 67 Camaro and he said he'd sell it today if he can buy mine.  I had to decline but it's nice to know that I can sell it in a pinch if I had to.

Wneh I bought my 3rd Gen Super Bee a few years ago, I paid $21K which I thought was a fair price for what it was and the condition it was in.  Now, when I bought my '70 Challenger R/T I paid $65K.  I still think I did well on that one because it was a truly rust-free California car (spent its entire life in the high-desert above LA in a garage), numbers matching, original body panels that were never hit, and loaded with a 440 Magnum, A/C, PS, PB, PW, light monitoring, etc.

It's all about what kind of car it is, how it's equipped and the condition it's in.  And then there's how badly someone wants it.

It all comes down to weather you feel good about the deal.

After coughing up 65k, I'd feel under the weather.

That's exactly right.  If it's going to leave you with a smile on your face... go for it.

I keep telling my wife that in more things than buying cars and she just aint having it

[XS29L9Bxxxxxx]

I think it has been a buyers market in this economy   What are some examples that make you feel prices are increasing.

agreed.

[1974dodgecharger]

big difference between talk and actual transaction.....I had a guy the other day offer me 36k for my old land cruiser its a 77 he said its rare to have 4 disc brakes and most valuable. 

I have an R/T clone (originally 318/904 white hat special), all hardware plus stripe minus badges.  Cop drivetrain, bigger brakes, bigger sway bar, extra leaf, the works.  Power steering and brakes, a/c, light package.  It has small bubbling behind the wheels, rear valance was hit and covered in bondo and the trunk floor will eventually need to be replaced although it'll last for quite a bit more time.  Interior is original aka worn out although the headliner, dash pads and door panels are still very nice.  I just received my fourth offer this season and had three offers last year.  All offered $25K, the last went up to $28.

Definitely but that's not the point.  Why are these people offering roughly the same amount?  It's academic if they actually would show up with cash but it's peculiar that this is the number these people come up with.

It's not going anywhere, this car would only be sold if some tragedy happened and I needed the money.

[1974dodgecharger]

As you know we as a society LOVE TO TALK....hence when no actual cash is involved we just talk...

thats why alot of forum members who sell their cars say, "please no talking about your history about the charger' etc....BRING CASH!

[1970Moparmann]

NADA (or any price guide) are one of the least accurate ways to determine a cars value I can think of.

Agree!

What I have seen are restoration projects seem to be commanding more money- especially if clean.

In looking at a couple of cars, it's high by at least 15 - 20%.

This is an insurance company, so they must balloon the value to get more money out of their customers.

Not an insurance Co.

[XS29L9Bxxxxxx]

Most Charger prices are still inflated.  The one car a fella wanted me to pay mid-20s for his rusted junk, sold at an estate sale for 1/2 that ammt. once he died. 

Also, most cars are at least ONE condition greater than reality. Excellent cars, seldom are...
