Ahhh man....I'll tell u one thing I'm going to miss ( -----> <-----) these kinds of threads...If there's way way in hell you could keep it do it because the return is depressing. If I were to ballpark based off of what I've seen Id go 45k-60k.

If you've kept your stock stuff and are willing to bother, you will get way more money back by parting the car out.

You cant get what you sold to build it-YOUR SOUL!

$50K minimum or crash it into a wall so nobody else enjoys it. You wont miss it as much as you think once its gone---> "out of sight out of mind"

Wow i cant believe your selling your car. However as a few have stated i see it hard to get more than 40k for it so it would be worth it to part out some of the parts.

It's the car with the indestructible 700 whp engine - you can't possibly really want to sell it! Just go to cali and dump $20k on a new body and interior - she'll be a new car!

I'll have it at Z days so everyone can see the "indestructable 700whp engine". Yes it time to move on. If I move back to Japan, its back to a "Bongo Van" and the bike scene.
