Its been crossing my mind to sell the beast, its a hard thing to even think about because this car is so damn perfect right now. I got a rental house I could be putting money into to make more money, so I am wondering what I could get if I did sell...? Here are some pics from today, 2005 Chrome Silver Twin Turbo Base.

 

Not as much as you put into it...

Most people are leary of buying a aftermarket turbo car... I'd just keep it unless your hurting for money...

 

I know that for sure lol. I actually was thinking about pulling the kit off and maybe selling seperately, wanted to see if it would sell turbo first, and for about how much...

 

I didn't think base models had aluminum pedals??

 

Nice wheels!

Post a few picks!

 

Lol, they dont, I changed those out, along with adding HID's it didnt come with either, I pretty much got the base because I knew I was going to change everything to aftermarket, the HID's were the first thing on top of my list. The pedal change was easy, I dont ever use cruise control so I wasnt worried about having that, didnt need power seats because I preferred the weight savings, I was planning on getting a nismo LSD but it doesnt matter now anyways because traction is nearly impossible in first and second haha, even with these 285's deflated to 25 psi, oh and **** traction and stability control, that's built into me.

So....how much do you guys think I could sell the car with the kit on it? Or should I just pull it off now and sell seperately along with the gauges and exhaust? Offers?

 

I would look up the BB value (kbb.com) and add a little for the mods. I'm sure you know that mods do not necessarily add value to the car when selling. It even can have a negative effect on it. Like others have said, I would definitly look into parting out the mods and then sell the car as stock.

 

How many miles does it have?

How much money did you put into it?


Just guessing but I would say High Blue Book plus maybe 2k for the mods...

If you still Have your stock parts I would change it back and sell off the aftermarket stuff on Ebay...

 

I'll give you $5.




No, really, general rule of thumb is: book value + (value of current mods/2).

Either that or part it out, your choice.

 

$40,000

 

^^Wish

I am thinking like 27K-28K?

 

$30,000.

 

Not in Cali.

Anyways Ian, hope your looking to your never-been-FI'd motor this weekend hehe. Should raise the resale value than if you just took off the Turbos.

 

Do you have an intercooler?

 

nice z

 

$25,000

 

I was thinking of trading in my 06 Grand Touring coupe w/ manual & every option. Most any dealer would give me is $26,000, 13,000 off the list with under 5000 miles.

 

is your exhaust custom?

 

My exhaust WAS custom lol, until I sold the TT kit. Its back to stock now, and I am going to hold on to the car for a while until I REALLY know what I want, I probably wont trade until I sell my rental house and break even thanks to this market, I want something to just cruise and chill in....But must be luxurious, like a new m45 or 5 series, something nice...

 

the new G ?
