RADAR ESTIMATE
What N163M is worth, and where it’s heading.
Radar's value model doesn't cover the Cessna Citation CJ4 on its own yet, so this borrows the Embraer Phenom 300/300E curve, scales it to N163M's listing-based estimate and widens the range to match. An estimate, not an appraisal.

RESEARCH NOTES
About N163M
Compiled with AI assistance from the public sources listed below, November 2025. Not checked against the aircraft's logbooks.
Overview
The airframe with tail number N163M is a 2011-built light jet, a Cessna 525C Citation CJ4 manufactured by Cessna (Textron Aviation) and bearing serial number 525C0035. It is owned by Data Center Services Leasing LLC, a corporation based in Salem, OR, US, and is registered in the US. The airframe's documentation indicates normal commercial registration activity consistent with corporate ownership and leasing use; it is recorded as owned by the named leasing corporation in Salem, Oregon.
Operations & Cabin
This specific CJ4 is outfitted in a typical executive cabin layout accommodating 8-11 passengers with an enclosed lavatory and external baggage access, consistent with corporate transport and light charter missions. Avionics fit for this airframe is the Collins Pro Line 21, supporting regional business operations, single-leg city pairs and frequent short-to-medium range trips within the aircraft’s 2,165 nm capability. Operated under corporate ownership from Salem, Oregon, the aircraft suits high-utilization leasing or on-demand charter profiles; its documented ownership by a leasing entity suggests allocation to varied corporate operators over its service life. Maintenance considerations align with the CJ4 fleet standard, twin Williams FJ44-4A engines and Pro Line avionics dictate established support pathways and parts commonality.
Model & Market Context
The Cessna 525C Citation CJ4 occupies the light-cabin, long-range end of the Citation family, offering high cruise speed (451 kts) and a service ceiling of 45,000 ft, making it competitive for transregional business travel. Rival models in this niche include later light jets and small-cabin midsize types that vie on range, cabin space and operating costs; the CJ4’s combination of performance and established aftermarket support sustains demand in buyer and charter markets.
