This week we tracked down a clean 1987 Suzuki LTR500 Quadzilla in VA for $3500 or a variety of trade options:

Weekly Used ATV Deal: Suzuki Quadzilla 500 for Sale or Trade - ATVConnection.com

 

more than I paid for my 89 new !!

 

If the atv is in"amazing condition" as advertised you can throw away the Nada and Kbb average price of $1400-$1500 they list. Condition and how collectible it is can set the prices on machines like this. We had several trade ins similar to this one that we gave more for it and sold it for more than any book price listed.

 

These and the Honda 250r always seem to go for a lot of money in great shape. Look at old cars. People spend tens of thousands of dollars restoring them and then sell them for more than what a new car costs. I'll watch an episode of American Pickers and they'll offer some guy 5 grand for some old rusted out junker that's been sitting in a barn for 30 years. But its still worth money to collectors once its restored.
