Nice set up, but your car is only worth as much as someone would pay for. But I'd say 10-12k depending on condition of car entirely.

around $9000-$10000

look around on ebay and in our classifieds for similar setups and see what they are going for

ive always thought that a rule of thumb would be add up your value of the car itself then the mods and take off a bit of it, as nobody will pay full price for all the mods, since they arent brand new

has worked for some of my friends

unpainted body kit... ugly and shotty interior... Looks like its been involved in a front end accident. Look at the rad support. Air bags have been deployed. Bleh.. looks like a junk with a band-aid and a SR..

I wouldn't even want to buy it.

Ha ha ha I like how in that list it includes stuff like the PCV and rear main seal. If you were expecting to get every last cent back that you put into the car, it's not really gonna happen. If that were the case I'd be able to sell my car for a hell of alot more considering I've also got new oem bolts for the suspension and engine. lol

Maybe he will start a trend of replacing all the bolts to raise the price of the car a little bit.

BTW: It looks like the airbags have gone off before. For some one like myself that makes me even more hesitant about paying more than 6 for the car.

i honestly would give you 8 though. My opinion....

i'd carfax regardless of airbags deploying or not. one thing that i'd be willing to pay extra for though is complete documentation. When I bought my s13, it came with complete service records including any service bulletin work that was done on it from the day it was picked up at the dealership. I'd rather pay a little more to know the complete history of the car rather than just a snippet. Just my 2 cents
