Yeah, well...I never really thought I'd say it...but I am thinkin about selling it..
Honestly, it's costing me too much money...I'm just addicted to modding and I can't
afford it so I am looking at buying a Lexus SC. I'm kind of doing the Corporate thing anyway, so
it'd be better for business...
But in any matter...I'm going to attempt to list my mods :p I just want to know how
much you guys think I can sell my car for if I sell it privately. Thanks in advance...

just a thought... you might be better off demodding it and putting it back to stock, then selling it and the mods. you might actually make more money that way and might recoup most of the costs of your mods and still get a decent price for the car.

You can always sell the aftermarket stuff but require the stock equivalent for a lower price than first expected.

I've got some satin finish torque stars with tires mounted on them that I'll sell/trade for something. Maybe, say the PCM?
