That is a common asking price. When you feel like selling it again you can ask about the same, so you should do ok.
Actually $1500 would be a more honest price. The N series was a very popular machine 60-70 years ago, and so many were made that people have fond memories of grandpa and his new, fancy tractor, the Ford N.
But over the decades, tractors have a lot better and safer features. Today the N tractors are quite limited compared to tractors from the 1950s-70s, with few gear speeds to pick from, no live hydraulics or pto, and so forth.
They sell for a high price because of fond memories; once you actually use a Ford N for a while, you learn its actually quite backwards in today's world and not worth what they sell for......
So, how do we answer your question?
As a collector item with fond memories of grandpa using one, $2500 isn't to bad a price.
As a useful machine, you can find a lot better machines with live pto and hydraulics for the same $2500, making that N a little overpriced for actual use.
