Just wanted to ping all of you vets out there what the avg selling price should be for an Evo in this condition:
2005 EVO 8 GSR EB with 235K total miles, broken transmission and original working engine that was rebuilt at 138K. No other major issues that I know of. Exterior clearcoat on roof and spoiler are gone and coming off on several other panels so would need clearcoat as well. Missing front lower lip piece.
Completely disagree with those prices these guys put out there. The car market is down everywhere and with 235k miles on the chassis, shot paint and trim, bad trans, and just overall a quarter million miles of wear and tear, there's no way this will sell for anywhere near that much. In comparison, there's a nice looking clean title 8 for sale in PHX right now for $22k with 111k miles and not needing anything. Replacement 5 speeds are not cheap for these cars either anymore these days.

I agree, no way this car is fetching that much when it basically needs everything but the kitchen sink. Its worth whatever someone is going to offer for it at most, but roughly $10k-$12.5 is when I'd start. At that mileage, it needs more than just a transmission.

I disagree. Totaled/non repairable evos with smashed in rear ends with 150k miles sell for that at auction. Aside from the trans this is still a fully put together, running evo with 20k easy in parts value. If someone wants to sell theirs for 10k they have every right to go ahead and do so but you're the one losing. If you gave me this evo I could squeeze out 30k from this through a part out. Thats why I mentioned rust its the biggest factor if there is minimal to no rust the bare chassis is around 7-8k. Recently built engine another 4k then you have the rest of the car. If there is big rust, Id agree with the 12-13k.

He didn't say he was parting it out. And the market is down. And he was asking selling price, not parting out price. But really let's be real here also. No one is going to pay much for parts that they know have 235k miles on them, so unless whoever is selling it lies about the mileage, the parts won't sell for near as much as lower mile parts. Also I have owned quite a few Evos and I had one with 250k+ miles for a short spell. The whole thing was loose as a goose compared to my others and it was always a bone stock and 1 owner daily driver car, so I'd imagine the miles had a lot to do with that.
To reiterate though, it would make no sense for anyone to pay $20k for it when the overall car market is down and you can buy running driving Evo 8's with no real issues with less than half the miles on the odometer for $20k at this current time. Will prices go up again? I'm sure they will eventually, but we are not in the Covid bubble as far as car prices are concerned and they are continuing to come down at this current time.

For regular traffic cars, sure. I don't see Evos coming down that much. This car would probably get around 20k. A DIY guy can send the trans out and have that fixed for <$5k
There is a running evo 9 recently listed on fb for $22k. If I was in the market for this, I think a reasonable offer would be $15. Given there are less and less evos every day.

I didn't say Evos were going to drop a metric ton. They have dropped in value however, as all cars have. You can look on BaT and C&B and compare selling prices on nearly everything now vs last year and the few years prior, and except for certain cars that are very desirable for a particular reason, the prices are all down. Again, I do not see why anyone would pay $20k for this with a bad trans and 235k miles when you can buy one with no issues for that much in the actual CURRENT market. There has to be enough incentive for someone to go through the hassle and buy it and fix it. But you guys are all the market experts and I'm clueless in the car market, so you all have fun. OP GLWS if you decide to sell it.
Given the details provided, the estimated value of a 2005 Mitsubishi Evo 8 GSR EB in this condition, needing a transmission replacement, with high mileage (235K miles), and cosmetic issues (clearcoat peeling, missing front lower lip), would typically range between $5,000 to $8,000 USD. Factors such as local market demand and the specific condition of the engine and other mechanical components could slightly adjust this estimate.
