There was an article in the paper recently about this era in XR6's and it was suggesting 9-10 for those... so 9-10 for the XR8 would be more than fair, assuming it's all working OK and just usual wear and tear. Of course, you'd better really love the idea of having a V8... it'll be a thirsty bugger

Do a redbook valuation but I think the ef/el xr's are still fetching around the 8k to 15k mark.

if you really want to know then pay for the service and use Glass Guide.
