I think the "mess" grill is indicative to the car's condition......

Very nice, clean machine.....However, the deal seems too good to be true. The additions mentioned add up to nearly 5k. Y is everything going for 10? The one thing that isn't mentioned in the add that may have been purposely left out is the phrase "runs good."

Rims and tires-- $3k easy
In-dash tv-- 8 or 9hun
Pager alarm-- around $200
"mess" grill-- $150-$200
HID's-- around $200ish
12" Kicker L7-- $200 each

The fact that this car is only averaging a 16.6K a year make the vehicle itself worth more than his asking price. Either this dude is in a huge rut or he really just want to gid rid of the vehicle. I doubt he would put so much money into it and just throw it away.

mods add little to no value to any car. exspecialy appearance mods.

This is true when you are talking about blue book or trade-in value. However, when being sold "on the streets" i've never run across a person that will charge less because they have done so much to the car. They wanna compensate. When i said that the car was "worth" more, i was talking about street value, not trade-in. A dealership would probably give him like 4k...If the paint is as good as it looks in the pic.

so i could ask about 25k if i put my car up for sale (15k for car plus the almost 10k i have into it) iw ould NEVER sell for that id be lucky to get the 15k.

Well now, u have to think.. if your car was Completely stock, would you even attempt to sell it for 15k. I thinks not, so u cant use that as your starting point. You gotta take the number that you would attempt to sale the car if it was "bone stock" and you just didnt want it any more, and then decide weather or not you are gonna add or subtract from that price due to your 10k input. Im pretty sure you would at least throw half onto the price. Additionally, if someone has knowledge of the value of your upgrades, they probably would pay 25k, the car was over 30k to begin with. What may stop them is the fact that these are "hard times" for most people. BTW, according to your specs and pix, your car is immaculate:2thumbs:. I would willin to bet (friendly bet) that if you were to put it up for sale at 15k, u would need police to direct the traffic outside of your house. I think it would leave your hands in no time.:bows:
