Just like the title says; I'm throwing around the idea of selling my current XJ to fund a Spec E30 race car for fun. After selling some 20 cars or whatever it's been, I've begun to notice that Kelly Blue Book isn't even a representation of what things sell for anymore. It's bone stock except for a new Kenwood CD/iPod player that I put in a few months back. New tires. Zero leaks. The only thing I can think of that's wrong with it is a bad passenger window regulator (which will be replaced if I decide to sell) and the paint has some sun damage from the previous owner. The Jeep is in great shape and I've got a folder full of receipts and an Excel spreadsheet I made to document time/mileage of my maintenance from cooling system flushings, heater core replacement, oil changes, A/C recharge...hell right down to wiper blades. I believe I'm the third owner. It's silver in color if that's of any importance. Thanks for any help! If I can't make a buck off it, I'll just hang on to it I suppose.

Below 100k miles is very rare. The silver (grey) ones don't sell as well though. A big factor is if its 4x4. Also Sports seem to sell the best and SEs sell the worst.
I bet you could make $5000 off someone on this site (XJ lovers can't pass up the the 83k), or $3000 for a typical buyer. Add $500 to both those numbers if its 4x4.
This info comes exclusively from me looking at every jeep cherokee in central tx on craiglist for the past month.

 

Yep. 4x4 Sport model. I know KBB gives it a value of $6000.

 

Here's a shot of it.





Clean title. Forgot to mention that.

 

Private party sale from Edmunds 83k, clean condition: $3661.00. Might as well just keep it and drive it into the ground.

 

Youch.

 

That thing is CLEAN! I think it looks great in that color. I say keep it.

 

i just payed $2800 for the exact same color, and model 2001 xj with 103k miles

you could easily get $3500-$4k for it

 

Id say about 5k

 

I just sold my 99 that had 107k and no.options for $5k in 4hrs. Coulda got $55 but I wanted it gone fast. If you were closer and the inside is as clean as the out I would give you $5k.




Edmonds always goes low

 

You could get an easy 5-6k off that in areas where there's snow, that's a nice looking Jeep. The right buyer would snap that up for that price easily.

 

Try selling it to a Canadian. There is a high demand for clean rusk free Cherokees here. Most of the Xjs in my area are rust buckets because of the amount of salt we use. For an example of the market. I bought my Cherokee for 5000$ Canadian with 65k miles and that's considered a pretty good deal.

 

Thanks for everyone's input! I'll put it up for sale for $6k soon and see what happens.

 

I just bought a 2000 Sport w/ 86k for $5,000. These are much more in my area than others.

 

up here in my area of mass. near ct a dealer would want $8k for that and they would get it (more snow and not near the ocean)
