Since you already have a list of mods the next step is to find the "normal" asking price for that item in used condition. "In other words, put a price that you would feel comfortable selling that item used, as if you parted the car out and put it back to stock. Do not include any labor or installation costs for any modifications. Labor is never recoverable when selling these performance items. If you did all the work yourself, pat yourself on the back. If you paid out the wazoo for all this fancy hardware to be installed, tested, tuned, etc... then you will take a loss. For example, if you had gears installed, put the price down for a used set of gears, not how much they cost to get installed. If you have a heavy labor intensive modification, such as a welded 10-point rollcage, its really only worth about 1/3 the original cost to a buyer that wants one. Custom paint jobs are hardly ever recoverable, so the value of paint is almost negligible since the original paint is adequate for most people."

 

If you can locate a buyer who likes your mods, your price is easily doable. Many will be scared off by the miles and mods. Good luck.

 

I was figuring around 23k-23.5k myself so with the right buyer I think you could get 25k.

 

How reliable are these cars will that kind of mods and miles for a DD?

 

Thanks for the responses - $25K sounds like a good starting point...
