2001 Proton VX (NYC Area) 22,500 miles ( 1 2 )

Yep that's the one that was for sale in this post. Wonder why it has not sold ?

[Marlin]

I'd value it at about $800 -$1000 where it sits...

..and maybe $1200-$1500 after pick up and tow home.


Undamaged Glass / rear door / roof rack / undamaged cladding / undamaged panels..

..are EASILY worth that alone.

(BTW..I already asked seller if R/Rack was 4 sale ..NOPE!...all or nothing!)

I agree with that concept, but shipping is so expensive, that it makes it very difficult to turn a buck. it cost me almost 200 just to ship the front cladding I sold a month ago. If you don't have a business account, shipping gets crazy expensive, they are still charging a fuel surcharge, even though gas is cheap....

I can't say enough great things about Greyhound shipping. I shipped a hood insert from Ohio to California for $50. I dropped it off on Saturday afternoon in Cincinnati and it was available for pickup on Monday morning in San Diego.

The only catch is, you have to drop off and pick up from a greyhound station. Its really easy though, its a whole separate area than the bus terminal.

I have also used them to ship a bumper from Ohio to Florida for less than $100.

Hmmm, I just checked it out, there are restrictions, the bumper would have just fit...and can't be over 100lbs, that eliminates tranny, maybe rear axle? Rear door is too big, but most other stuff would be fine...Sweet!!!
Thanks for the heads up.

Anyone reasonably local should keep a real good eye on this ...!!

Just curious to see who I am bidding against?

[Marlin]

If you are looking for all those little pieces...shipping is ridiculous though...but a good deal overall I would think.

I might give you a run if I can get my friend up in Fredericksburg (not Tom) to let me borrow his trailer for the weekend. Still trying to decide how much I want to spend though...

But I really don't think we should be competing with each other to buy it. After all, anybody on this board who buys it is just picking it up to part it out to other members, so outbidding each other seems counterproductive. Maybe I'll start another thread to continue this thought...

Kind of what I was thinking...

7 days left and already 28 bids pushing price over $10K... will be very interesting to watch considering it will likely give us an idea of the max price one can expect when they sell their VX. Plus this ad is simply amazing for amount of detail - this should be the template for all other car ads on eBay.

Nice Dragon for sale, but some interesting oddities... oversize tires look great (would be nice to know exact size though) but looks like the TB crank needs rear springs to match. Engine bay looks immaculate. Paint looks to be in great condition. But wtf is this? Looks like they just have the underside of the front cladding painted? Poor man's VXC/rowhard faux skidplate?

Clear/smoked/amber (OEM) side markers and turn signal lenses... not too bad a price from their website, and occasionally you can get a better price when they list an auction on eBay.

Even at 10,100 reserve is not met. While this is the best VX I have seen for sale lately I have not seen too many sell in the $15,000 range
