How much did you pay for your 3rd gen?

5500 for my 97 SR5 5 speed w/ 168k. I looked for a while because the 5 speed was a must. The only other thing I wanted was the e locker, but that would have taken a lot longer to find a 5 speed w/ the e locker in my price range. Anyway, I couldn't be happier with the truck:D
 
Got mine for $11,500 CAD, 131,000 original K's..Sunroof, Locker..I thought it's a fair price. Now I can't believe it's even the same truck..got her this month last year..yippee! Pls. check the link in my sig.

I payed $1500 for my 1998 Limited 4 runner that was clean. No accidents, One dent the size of a dime, everything works. 231k with a new engine. Worst problem was it needed to be vacuumed and the back seat leather is a little scratched.

$6K for my 99 4runner SR5 4wd with 138K miles 2 months ago. It has the hood scoop and leather. One owner, an elderly gentleman in his 70's. It has been well maintained thru-out and I even spoke to his mechanic prior to purchasing. This was supposed to be the weekend/road trip/camping vehicle but I've been driving it daily and the audi has been demoted to garage queen. LOL!

That's an insane deal! I was happy to get a '97 Limited auto 4x4 with 142K miles and several scratches and dings for $4400.
 
I paid $6500 for mine.

1997 SR5 4X4 5-speed with 150,000 miles. Bought from the second owner and had a full folder of car history. They just replaced timing belt and new tires before they sold it to me.

That's even with the insane Georgia 4runner tax....
 
I just paid about $6,300 for my '97 Limited 160k. Second owner, mechanically treated superbly.

Still too much, but it is Denver, and the Colorado runner market is out of control.
 
paid 9k for my 2000 SR5 highlander 5 speed with 114,000 miles. Thought it was a good deal until i saw all your guys's ridiculously cheap prices. You all suck =(

Paid 10$ from off my dad after a ferry ride and a few drinks... I was pretty lucky haha, he bought a tundra and the runner was just sittin.

Its a 97 limited had 230 000 ish km, now has 306 000 km. I hit 300 000 on my way across Canada (somewhere in Northern Ontario) lifted with mud tires... Runners will never die haha.
 
A month ago I payed $2500 for my 97 Limited 333k mi but in amazing mechanical condition Eng/trans. Things I've replaced so far: drivers cv, alternator, fuel pump/filter, wheel cylinder, plugs/wires now lifted and new tires. Drivers seat torn up, bumper dented and a couple minor body dents/scratches. I'm lovin it though and I pretty much stole it for that $.
 
I paid $13.5k for my '99 with 96k on the odo back in '04 and it was very well cared for and came with new tires and a Load Warrior rack on top.

My mom paid $28,000 (that seems high now) for her '99 with 26k on it back in '00.



I notice alot of people post they bought their Runners from "an elderly gentlemen" or "an older couple".

Is this a good thing? Have you seen how some older people drive?:eek:

Maybe I should get the driving record of any potential seller when I seek out cars since that would actually tell quite a bit. :)
 
I got mine for $8000 Canadian. A 2001 SR5 with leather and moonroof. It had about 118,000 miles and had been rust coated every year but one by the previous owners. For a Nova Scotia vehicle that isn't a babied sports car it has an excellent, nearly stellar, lack of rust underneath. Just wish the spare wasn't underneath and then the rear end would be better rust wise.
 
i got mine back in July of this year. it's an '02 Sport and it had 67,900 miles on it and i got it for $13,600.
 
I paid $8k for my 98 limited with 125k miles on it last summer and just picked up a 99 SR5 for $9k yesterday and is had 99k miles.
