if you sell one to some idiot who will buy anything, u can get 50grand for it, im telling you how much its WORTH. as much as you want to believe it, mods arent worth sh*t. the only way you get back what you spend is to part out the car. jus because you can get some stupid kid who thinks a civic slammed with cut springs and 150000km is willing to pay 15g's for it doesnt make it worth that. he asked the value of his car, and i gave FACTS, simple as that.

i didnt say ask for 6grand, i dont car what he askes for it. i gave a base price to work with. now that you know what its WORTH, work from there.

For once, I think I might actually agree with SteveZ. It doesn't matter how much you ask for your car because it's only worth what someone is willing to pay for it. Mods do not increase the value of a car to a potential buyer unless the mods you have done are exactly what they are looking for.

A $5000 Civic with $5000 worth of motor swap and parts isn't worth 10g's. Ever hear the saying "it's not worth the sum of it's parts"?

The fact that it has a different motor and a bunch of JDM/SIR parts probably makes it harder to sell. A bone stock, low k Civic would sell within a week. I bet this car is still for sale a few months from now.
