soo i'm selling my 1996 850 turbo platinum edition
and some of u know its been in an accident and all

wat is a resonable price to ask for this thing? all interior dash lights r out, engine runs mint, other then that everythings stock

as is

good price point?

 

Ehhhh, unfortunately not much since it now since the title has been tainted by a brick wall. How many miles?

 

i know it sucks however its got about 270000 kms(idunno miles) HOWEVER it has the ABS TRACS thing so it doesnt work a lot of the time.... buyer doesnt have to know it hasnt work for a while

 

Honestly, maybe a grand, but probably lower.

 

yea thats pretty much wat i was leaning towards with all things considered

 

You would probably make about the same, if not a little bit more parting it out, just a thought.

 

yes i may end up selling as parts if i cant get the amount i'm trying for (1500$) so well see

aswell do you know if there is ANY difference between the PE ECU and the regular 850 t5 ECU???


aswell! is there a difference between a 850 t5 GLT and and 850 t5???
my isurance company asked me that....

 

PE and turbo ecu are all the same.

850 GLT, not T5 GLT. haha, they beez wrong. GLT's didn't have a turbo until 1997, so up to 97 the ECU compared to any turbo model will obviously be different. Otherwise, the 97 GLT ecu is different than the T5 ECU, less boost, different injectors I think.

 

thats wat i said, hoenstly when he asked me that i was like ummmm t5? like i stuttered it was actually weird

 

Haha, that's funny. They be trippin'.

 

Well, it sounds like S_Moneh is not in the USA. Many overseas models are ahead of ours, they may have had a '96 T5 GLT. Just thinking.

Has the car been repaired? Something is worth what someone is willing to pay for it. If it can be driven daily put it up for sale, ask a price you can afford to take, and take the first serious offer.

 

well ok lets put it this way

which model is better? 850 t5 or 850 t5 glt?? AND how can i tell which i have??


then yea i've put it up for sale, i am still driving it and everything it runs, however i have to do safety test on it and it would probably fail becuase everybad is swapped into that one, so i'm not sure if any1 is willing to drive it but i'll have to wait and see

 

I'm like 99.9% sure there is no T5 GLT, I've seen plenty of pictures of overseas cars and what not on VS and have never heard of or seen a T5 GLT, it's one or the other. There both fine models, the only difference is that until 97 the GLT did not have a turbo. In 97 when it got the turbo it was a 13G, smaller than the T5's 15G. That's about it. And different wheels.

All platinum 850s were Turbo/T5.

Where are you located, just to make this easier? Your reading KM, I'm guessing Canada.

 

ooo ic well i know for sure its a 97 t5 thats for sure, i have the t5 emblem which i debagged by mistake and wish i hadent ! ( where can i get a new one btw)

and yes i'm in canada, more specific toronto ontario

 

You can find them on ebay sometimes
