Can't even conceive how one of these at 25 yrs old would be worth $6000....lol. Mileage is only one part of the equation. Realistically that car is worth $1500-$2000 "assuming" it's had all the maintenance and still runs like a 61K mile car. If OEM items like radiator, evaporator, condenser, pumps, hoses, gaskets, and a plethora of electronics haven't failed yet, they soon could.
1. Seller is hoping someone had this exact car in the past and will buy it at any price. EDIT: Exact same configuration, different car. The same car with a different vin number.
2. Seller is hoping some gangster laundering drug money wants it to paint it monochrome and put huge wheels on it.
3. Seller's wife/gf wants it sold but the seller does not.
4. Good condition old cars are rare, but there seems to be a steady supply of low mileage old man cars that no one wants. Doesn't stop someone from pricing this one 3x the going rate because it is the nicest within 1000 miles.
