What would you all appraise a 00' IronMan with 39,000miles on it at? Just making sure the one i just bought was a good deal. A little late to ask maybe but just making sure.......

This isn't helping your question about the value, but I was wondering if someone knew why some IronMan models have a logo on the hood? Did they put it on there or factory? Also some appear to look to have more of a flat black hood insert, while others seem glossy.

Thanks for any info.

If I were *really* interested in another I'd be willing to pay roughly 15k.

Considering what I paid for the Zilik's two VXs I would have to say around $9489.27

Wow in that case i paid too much.....Not going to state how much till i hear some more opinions just so they wont be based on what i paid......It does come with an extra set of rims, not off roading rims and tires which i prefer more but show rims they are 20''.....

Dealer or private party? 39,000 miles and been in an accident? 39,000 miles and like new? :confused: Based on the information you provided...I'd say anywhere from $2000 to $13,000. :p

O.K. What did you pay?

Here's some advice..............whenever you pull the trigger on buying a car (any big purchase)...........you pull the trigger knowing it was a GREAT deal. Make yourself believe that or you will drive yourself crazy.

I kinda think that's what going on here.

Peace.
Tom

p.s.
What did you pay? :p

I'd say $13k-ish range. What kind of rims did he throw in?

NADA says its worth $15,450 retail.
Kelly Blue Book says its worth $13,270 retail.
Edmunds says its worth $10,288 retail.

This is probably part of the reason it's hard to define how much a VX is worth - even the supposed "authorities" estimates all differ greatly, making it hard for the buyer, seller, lender, dealer, insurance company, DMV, and anyone else involved to agree on a "book value".

Unfortunately knowing if you got a good deal is not cut and dry. I'd say if you paid less than $15k and it's in excellent mechanical condition and you love the truck, you got a good deal. Sure, there are probably VX's out there to be had for $8k, $7k, maybe less, but the conditions also vary quite a bit, and I'd rather have a fairly low mileage VX that I know was maintained properly.

There are also quite a few highly modified VXes out there (like mine ;)) that are worth far more to the owner who shelled out for all the parts than they would ever recoup in a sale. If I asked blue book plus 1/2 of what I paid for all of my accessories I'd probably have a $30k VX. ;Db;

I'll be glad to help you drive yourself nuts...
Back in Feb. 2003 I paid $13.700 for my 99'...It was like new & had under 10,000 miles on the ticker.

The deal is done...settle in to the payments & enjoy your new to you ride...or, :rolleyes:
