It's a 1991 Toyota MR2, non-turbo, with T tops and about 63K in mileage. The guy is asking $7000 for it but the Kelly Blue Book value of it is only <a href="http://www.kbb.com/kb/ki.dll/kw.kc.ucp?kbb&48098&;873032&;;ucr;&16;TO;F1">$4,600</a>. The problem comes from the fact that the Kelly Blue Book value seems to have little or no relation to the apparent market price of an MR2 in Michigan. <br> <br> A car of the same year make, model, style and mileage is listed at $5,800 an equal distance away from where I live. But at the same time, a similar car ('93 instead of '91) with similar mileage that is even closer to me is listed at $7,900.<br> <br> Just going on that information, what would be your offer to the guy asking $7,000 for it? tag:ask.metafilter.com,2006:site.40242 Thu, 15 Jun 2006 10:47:58 -0800 MR2 517 http://ask.metafilter.com/36163/Can%2Da%2Dcan%2Dfix%2Da%2Dflat Does anyone have any experience with alternatives to spare tires such as fix-a-flat or slime? I have just bought a second hand sports car that has no space fo luggage and am going away for Easter. There is a spare tire in the front that is taking up a lot of usable space and I am wondering whether modern roadside puncture repairs would actually do the job - should the worst happen. tag:ask.metafilter.com,2006:site.36163 Tue, 11 Apr 2006 18:21:18 -0800 cars MR2 MR-S spare sports Spyder tires Samuel Farrow
