ESTIMATED VALUE
What N172SP might be worth
Rough range$83K to $240K
A rough range for a 1977 single-engine piston airplane, with a middle of about $140K. From manufacturer-published new prices of comparable 300 hp single-engine piston airplanes, depreciated for age. It is not an appraisal and knows nothing about N172SP itself: total time, engines, condition, equipment and the logbooks move the price of any one aircraft.
