To be honest eto yung take ko... Based on what is posted lang.

1) Corollas are not good cars to get a good price even if your condition is good, why? Because there are just too many of them in the want-ads. So you must play within the "range" of such model/year.
2) Price cannot exceed 170K IMO for a 95. You can get a 94 GLi for about 30K more.
3) Mileage is not on your side especially for a small engine.
4) Cosmetically, the car looks well kept, but bumper color throws it off. Steel rims doesn't give the car a good "look" as well.
5) As with any accessories and audio system, you're selling them at a loss. Most buyers wouldn't care less if the system is stock or not. If it's an audio enthusiast, they'll probably get rid of whatever's installed anyway.
6) A washed-over car will not appeal to many buyers. (Me, for instance) as it shows neglect of the paint previously (especially the car is only 10years old).
7) Tint is just not right hehe.

I'm not being negative, so please don't get me wrong. But you asked for our take.

Things that I think can improve the resale that won't cost you much.

1) Get rid of the tint! - P200-300 or DIY.
2) Get rid of the conduction sticker(s)

Bottom line, 140-170 tops.

me... having sold a 1985 corolla this first quarter of 2005, should not be lower than 180K.

suggest you advertise it thru your friends also (aside from this forum.... hehehe)
