Toyota Cynos (1993), Need An Idea Of The Market Value

[Shashitha]

Hi Guys,

I am interested in buying a Toyota Cynos (YOM: 93, EFI, 1.3CC) and I was wondering what pros and cons of buying this type of car are?

Also I would like to know the best market value for this type of car?

Experts over to you!

She's still with me

Cynos Beta / 1994 / Manual / 1500cc

I agree with the price range Devinda quoted. The last valuation I did for mine was in late 2006 from De Silva motors, which amounted to 1,025,000. But I have seen prices across the above range depending on the year of manufacture, overall condition, the year of registration, etc.

Pros: Given the present car market, it's a good car to have. Sporty. Weighs 920 kilos on a 1500cc engine, which gives nice acceleration (enough to keep the trishaw/bus/motorcycle and maruti 800 f**kers at bay).

If you keep the revs under 2000, does 11-12 Kms/L in city, with AC. But no matter what the case I have never caught it doing less than 9 Km/L. I have never driven it outstation in all these years, so I can't comment on the fuel economy driving outstation.

Parts are from the same platform as the Starlet EP82 / AE 100 / Corsa / Tercel and are easy to find, either re-con or new.

Cons: It's a 2 door coupe. So might not be ideal for a family man (But the back seat can accommodate 2 "average sized" adults comfortably).

By the way; Are you sure about the one you looked at being 1300cc not 1500cc?

Thanks Bro, yea its a 1300cc and price is 925000 so I was wondering if that was too much for a 1993, 2 door coupe? Oh it also has body modifications as well (Large spoiler, side skirting, etc)

Personally, I don't like 1300cc models. That's the biggest drawback of the Cynos model that came during the late '90s. I'm not a huge fan of bodykits either. Especially considering the fact that the Cynos comes with a factory designed spoiler, that works perfectly.
