Thinking about selling my car, is it worth more or less w/mods?

Unfortunately when selling the car if you have mods they either do nothing for you or they depreciate the value of the car... I know right?

If you still have your stock airbox you would probably be best to pull the CAI/X2-Tunes, Steeda UDPs off and sell them for a few hundred.

Good Luck

the only way to get decent money for it would be to sell it to a mustang enthusiast that can appreciate the mods, other wise they dot add any value.

stinks, huh?

Those that mod their cars probably take better care of them than anyone else, but our cars are worth less.

IMO, it just depends. if an individual is buying, it can only help with the sell, but if you are taking it to a dealer, you'll lose.

Caution

+1 ... need to find the right buyer

I just bought a used 2006 black GT and would of rather bought it stock than with mods.

Right buyer and it will benefit you....sold my 05 gt with alot of mods. s/c, headers, body part changes, stripes etc..(Shelby gt350 tribute look) .had over 30k invested into it (Inc price of car when I bought used in 06 with 4k miles) sold it with over 20k miles....for $26,000 on ebay. so my loss was $4k which was incredible considering I had alot of fun times with the car over 2 years...so to me 2k per year to drive my car...not a bad deal....but again..the right buyer bought it...put on Ebay....my luck with Auto trader was useless..all that did was get calls from car selling companies in Vegas., they charge you and exuberant amount of money to sell your car, they arange financing for the buyer etc...however...they will NOT guarantee to sell your car...good luck with the sale....dont expect to get everything you put into the car out of it...if you have patience ..it could sell...mine took about 2-3 weeks with everyone offering to buy certain parts off of my car...however...my car sold because of the mods..some dont...good luck

Funny thing... I purchased my car new and would never had bought one with existing mods yet I take better care of my car than anyone I know. Nothing but synthetic lubricants and I'm very **** about changes and such. I even changed my rear-diff lubricant after 500 miles on the new gears. That's how **** I am. Whoever gets my car will be getting a jewel.
