what do you guys think my car is worth?
had a craptastic day and may have to sell it, which kills me but i dont know if theres any other way.
car has just over 80K miles, and its pretty much flawless besides for one small dent in the right rear quarter
how much do you guys think its worth with the mods
brand new 9 in
brand new 1000 hp DS
new dbl adj lca's
spohn chassis mount TA
possibley new drag rear sway bar and panhard bar(not sure if i want to odrder them or not- spohn)
so the whole rear of the car is ready for a ton of power
MTI clear air lid and smooth bellows
brand new warbaro(sp?) 255 fuel pump
New ram power grip hd clutch, no track passes, about 1000 miles maybe
QTP long tube headers and dual e-cutouts ORY then stock catback
pro 5.0 shifter
UMI sub frame connectors
i would send if off with all the stock parts and both sets of wheels as well (prostars and the ws6 rims both with tires)
im sure theres more that i cant think of

Honestly you're probably best getting it back closer to stock, and selling the parts and car seperate. Seems to me that it's hard selling modified cars for decent money. Most buyers look at it like buying someones elses problem.

I'm sure it was. Your car looks badass. But just seems to be the attitude of most buyers.
You could always throw it up on Ebay as is with a reserve and see what happens. Might cost you a couple bucks in listing fees, but may save your back.

Honestly my advice would be part it out- I know it sucks to think about, but I'm sure you'll end up better in the end.
A good way to look at it is like this- The way your car is now you are limited a small group of people that want a car set-up like that. If you put it mostly back to stock now you open back up to just about everyone plus make some of your money back on the parts you can sell.
Which brings me to my next point...not to sound like a dick, but if you do decide to part out- can you put me first in line for the skinnies and slicks? Just letting you know there is a potential buyer for them...

i would stick to selling it as one for something closer to what you want . . . . start high and if it doesnt sell lower it little by little but do what you gotta do
i would say start as high as 19 k. . . i didnt price anything but hell why not unless you just need to get rid of it

yea i would say go the way of parting it out cause my honest opinion when im looking for a car is i want bone stock because i dont know if everything that was done on whatever car was done properly so now i pretty much wouldnt buy any modded car unless i personally knew who did it

Yea I know I tried to sell my Ventura, and ppl really won't give ya what you have in a car that's been modded because they either think, well it's modded so they must have been really rough on it, or they may not have done it right, so it'll prob blow apart. I know it sucks, but I agree with everyone else you prob come closer to gettin your money by parting it out and selling the car as a really clean, low mileage, stock WS6.
