WOW that's an amazing car! Unfortunately you will not recoupe much of the mod money at all. Why are you selling after such a short time and so many mods? If you ever get desperate all I have is about an extra grand laying around lol. Good luck with your sale, someone is going to get a great car.

i honestly dont know where the market is at with these right now all i know is what i payed. 30k for the car over 15k in mods. i would think around 36k would be a fair price being that everything is a few months old. just have to find the right buyer i guess

Not sure how much you paid for it but KBB has it stock for $23-24k and I would expect to get less than that. So with mods I'd say you're probably looking at maybe $30k

It's worth 30k all day long....

Take off the black out on the tail lights before you take pictures to advertise, and for the love of XXX please lower that car.

p.s. Mod Red interior is always desirable especially on a Torch Red exterior...

driveway is to steep to safely lower the car or it would be done already. screw taking off my black out lights i think more people like them then not and if someone cant realize that it takes a few turns of a screwdriver i dont want their offers anyway.

Sorry, but you paid too much for it originally, and you're going to take a beating on the money you put into it after that.
Car looks great, but I don't know if you would even get 30k for it.
Good luck though.

i bought it from a dealer with 15k miles on it for 28,600 which after tax tags and title ended up being around 30k, at the time it was a good deal thanks for your opinion. pretty much already decided not to sell

You have a LOT of work into that. Looks great! I say $35,000 for it. No less.

sell it stock (if you can) 25-27k

Sells supercharger and other parts standalone - 1/2 what you paid on average.

It is depressing.
