How much would you pay for a car?
Me and my boyfriend are planning on selling our cars soon but we don't know how much to list them for.

2002 Saturn SLS
New Starter
New Tires
Less then 100000 miles on it
Power windows
Awesome Sound system
Gets great milage
"Cranberry" Color, Minimal rust
Fabric interior

2000 Grand Prix GTP
Rebuilt Transmission
Sun Roof
Power Windows
Autostart
LED Driver Information Center
Heads Up Display
Heated Leather Seats (with NO tears in leather)
170xxx Miles
Boise Sound System
White Car, Tan Interior.
Minimal Rust
New Rear driver side Door
Scratches on Rear driver side door

Can Anyone help me figure out how much to list these cars for?

    When it comes to valuing cars most aftermarket upgrades or changes do not add much if any value to a car. Any repairs that are done only serve to help hold the car's value. Based on the information listed in NADA's guide your Saturn is worth about $2,200. Your Grand Prix is worth about $2,175. Any car report listing accident information will likely devalue the prices further. Your location can impact the value of your vehicles as well.

    kbb.com is your best friend. Everyone searching for a car looks it up on that and usually they won't pay higher than it.

    If you have a Carmax dealership near you, I highly recommend taking your car there for a buy back quote. I have several friends that sold their cars to Carmax and received very good offers. Much simpler than selling the car on your own.
