PRICE: A ROUGH RANGE
Cessna Citation Ultra price: a rough range by build year.
Radar's value model does not cover the Citation Ultra yet, so this is a rough range, not an estimate for any one aircraft. From Radar's listing-based estimates for business jets of similar engine thrust and age. The band is the range for each build year and the line its middle. Hours, engines, damage history, equipment and the logbooks move the price of any one aircraft.

- 1996 Citation UltraRough range$920K–$2.1M
- 1989 Citation UltraRough range$620K–$1.4M

QUESTIONS
Citation Ultra questions, answered from the data
How much does a Citation Ultra cost?
Radar's rough range is about $1.2M to $2.6M for a 1999 and $620K to $1.4M for a 1989. From Radar's listing-based estimates for business jets of similar engine thrust and age. These are rough ranges, not appraisals: hours, engines, damage history, equipment and the logbooks move the price of any one aircraft.
What affects the price of a Citation Ultra?
What moves the price of any one Citation Ultra: total time and engine time, engine program enrollment, damage history, avionics and equipment, and complete logbooks. Build year sets the baseline shown on this page; a Citation Ultra with high hours, an engine near overhaul or gaps in its records sells below it, and one with low time, recent inspections and full records above it.
Where can I find a Citation Ultra for sale?
