Thinking about selling her. How much?

[Tonys18t]

Oops, forgot to mention i did timing belt, water pump, thermostat, valve cover gasket, new belts about 2k miles ago.

dont lose the reciepts for the parts and labor, they will be worth cash money when you sell;)

Your thinking about selling again? This thing has gotten so much cleaner since blown euros!

i cant see much less then 3k on a bad day just cause its so clean and well taken care of.

Thanks man, a few things have changed since then.

I'd give you 2500 for that.

But then again I'd hate to buy something with mods on it already, I don't trust other people.

I hear that. I would be skeptical of motor builds, but everything is just bolt ons that i've done.

that is because you dont trust yourself

Intake and valve cover bump it from 2200 to 2600, look really nice I dig it

[ben312]

that sounds fair

...and automatic is good, not bad, lol.

not for enthusiasts. or eta's. takes like 8 seconds for 0-60.

You mean around 11.

[Julien]

how is the interior? depending on that somewhere from 1800 to 2500.

Well shit I was off. There you go, one little thing that drops the value of a car from 3500-4k to 2500-3k. At least to us, could sell it to a local for 3k easy. I see a clean little vert for 3k everyday for sale by me, but sadly its an auto and the top needs some patching, otherwise I would be on it. Hell even with the shitty top I would try to get some money if it was 5speed. Clean car tho, I'd give 2700 for it.

Nice looking car. Personally I'd black out the bumper and window chrome (plastidip!), but I'd say $2500+ is a fair expectation.

Thanks for the input, but i wasn't really planning on parting it out. I think the sum of the parts/ car as a whole better has a better curb appeal and chance of selling for more money.

i dont think thats true at all.

by leaving all your modifications on it you're just decreasing the pool of people who would possibly want to buy the car.

you're narrowing it down to people who are okay buying an already modded car who may have a similar aesthetic taste. enthusiasts will bring you the most money. you could get $2,500 for the car stock and sell your parts for $1k, or maybe sell the car with all that stuff on it for $2,800.

This. I've seen plenty of cars that I would have considered if not for certain mods that I don't like. And paying more for a car to have to sell all the stuff you don't like is a hassle.

I agree with that. I don't have the caps anymore, or the stock springs. So other than the tint, wheels, and suspension it is pretty much stock anyway.

I'm more or less targeting a young person 18-23 as a buyer locally, so i don't think the mods will hurt the sale. If anything, i think they'd help make it stick out because lets face it, a stock eta isn't much to look at.

[8380 Labs]

you've targeted a demographic haha?
