Please FMV Fastiva. It's a '91 .... had it for 17 years ... will probably run with fresh gas and a new battery etc.... too old for kbb but low trade in for a '92 is $150 .....281K on it, notice the high tech bungee cord turn signal system.... the lower the FMV the more fun to be had wink

The pictures make it look somewhat better than it is.

I'd probably give you $500 for it. But I've bought worse for that. 

I'd second $500. But it might work in your favor to propose a reason it should be $250...

There is some more rust to contend with in rear frame rail. Private party low price is $235 ... It owes me nothing ... what is scrap value? That is what most people would do with one.

Scrap here is currently $200 a ton. 
 

I would say $250 is a fair starting point

I'd agree that $250 is a fair starting point.

What about the "embarrassment factor"? My girls were highly embarrassed when they were in high school if I picked them up in my "Barbie blue" Festiva, so like any good Dad that knows "suffering builds character", I always picked them up in itwink

 

Gotta be worth some deduction in value....

 

This made think I should get a sticker for my Lotus Europa that says "my other car is a Festiva" , who would believe it or vice versa?

I'll go $250. Unless you're building a SHOgun replica that I can buy afterwards then it's significantly more/less/whatever you want

Unfortunately no Shogun replica for my first Challenge attempt.

 

 

So it looks like $250 is a go!!

Thanks!
