All the 350Z's lost a big chunk of residual value as soon as the 370Z started hitting the dealer lots. It's the natural order of things...

They over produced the 350 and G35, which doesn't help. In a few years the 370 will be the same. I sold my 94 300zx twin turbo for 17K last year +. At that same time the 03' Z were going for 15-18K.

since i'm planning to sell the car would it be wiser to sell the car as is with mods or part out and sell it stock?

Depends on the buyers market, if the buyer wants the mods or they want it stock. Usually you never get what you pay for the mods so most people usually part it out. Just my experience
