Default What's a '99 45' worth?

This just popped on e-bay and is at a lot a 1/2 hr from my house. Have passed it several times in the last month or so.
The lot mostly does smaller fishing boats and guessing they're way off the mark on their buy it now price of $159K.
By double maybe???
Looks great in the pix's but $160K will buy a lot of boat these days and especially for a 13 yr old Sonic. Thinkin I saw a 42' Outerlimits for less??

I'm not positive, but I think I saw this exact same boat for sale privately for 79k last fall. With a broker, they tend to double the price from my experience.

Somebody is... if they think that this boat will bring that kind of money. A 45 Sonic is a very nice boat, but I just don't think that there is an azz for that seat right now!!

I saw that boat on Singer Island (outside West Palm Beach) in June hooked up to a big toterhome with Indiana tags I think. Boat was huge, but the graphics/color scheme made it look old. I honestly thought it was older than a 99.

Can't see a 1 being the first digit in the asking price.....

went to see one in jersey last august. can't swear it is the same boat, but same year, same colors, and ... exactly same graphics on the side saying ending with boy whatever the word was... in fact was listed at 79k for over 1 or 2 years.... I think all triple in that year range are edvertised anywhere from 75k to... 160 k! but real buy price? my guess would be between 50 and 60k...

Interesting reports guys. Sounds about right.

Here's a link to the Outerlimits that came to mind for price comparison. Not even close.

While we all would like to see our boat values stay constant the reality of it is not going to happen. I have a 2000 45 that I think is worth more than what the market does.

This boat has been for sale for quite a while and for a lot less than they are asking.

Attention shoppers...., we have a blue light special, well not quite but....

Back on e-bay w/a $147K buy it now price. Interestingly, I was watching a "Power Boating in Paradise" episode where they were covering the Jacksonville poker run and had a blip of this boat. Never showed it running though...

With those colors, there is no way it will pull 6 figures.
