1994 SL600 for sale? any ideas how much I should ask for
Hi there, I am new here just decided to post my damaged sl600 for sale to those who might be interested. It is a white 1994 sl600 with under 71000 original miles, engine is perfect, however it did recently get into a front end accident. Other then the accident the only minor issue is the passanger window motor needs a little push sometimes. The car otherwise is in great condition still starts and can be driven, but obviously have not attempted to do so besides driving it on to the tow truck.
Please feel free to offer your ideas about how much the car is worth at this condition, I do have no idea how much I should let it go for, although if its not worth much then I will simly fix it and carry on the salvage title.
Also I am curious about how much you guys think the car is really worth, just want to compare that figure with the one insurance appraised the car with, because I do feel that I was screwed by the insurance company.
Thank you for any ideas, and sorry if that was too long. Feel free to PM me with any massages.

The cost of fixing that will be more than what your car is worth. Realistically, that car is probably worth $4K max at the condition it's at now. If you are handy, you can part it out for more money. On the other hand if time is important to you, take anything over $3500 if insurance offers it (save you tons of time). 94 has wiring harness issue too.

parts are worth more than the whole.
At 70K your engine is still prime, but harness issues could make it salvage value only. Interior parts are probably brittle and faded.
Electronics are dated and not update worthy
I am not in the market, so no offer, but it could be a fun winter project. Good luck with the sale.
