Default What do you think I could get for my stang?

I was originally planning on getting some FI for her, but I think it may be almost time for a upgrade in stangs. I was very impressed with the 2011 GT's stats and I may go test drive one soon just to see how she feels. However Id need to sell my baby for a down payment... What do you think I could get for her?

1997 Mustang GT Black
52,000 miles

mods: (may remove some of these)
-Ported and polished PI heads, pi cams, pi intake.
-24lb injectors
-steeda UDP
-Mac LT's, O/R H
-AEM wideband
-4.10's
-sniper tune
-accufab TB 70mm
-k&N filter
-FR500 rims (knock offs)
-steeda clutch adjuster
-MMFLSFC
-Pro 5.0 shifter, with pistol grip hurst handle

exterior paint it pretty good, some sap marks on the roof, hood and trunk though. The front bumper has three some sun marks too. selling area is in New york (12839)










old rims:

sun spot:



so...what do you think


EDIT:
KKB says 6000-6500 for it private party

I think KBB is about right. Nothing less because of the low miles. Just gotta find the right buyer

Keep it til spring and fix some of the sunspots. Then you'll be able to sell it for about that in the spring. But I would not also mention all the mods it has seeing that the people that want a low mileage car will turn away when they see mods like heads that have been ported and stuff.

+1^^ alot of buyers will turn away when they hear MODDED bc they will think RAGGED-out. Unless you find a buyer who is looking for that and know how much it cost. Just sell it on the looks and low mileage.

Good info thanks guys!

I can remove almost all the mods besides the 4.10s and the pi swapped parts. What about the Long tubes though?
Im not going to sell til at earliest next year though, should I mention that its swapped but not ported?
The sun spots, i heard the only way to fix them was to repaint the whole bumper. would that be worth it selling wise?

IMO I would mention the PI swap depending on who is looking at the car and they know what that is. That way they dont go out and buy some PI heads to put on it and then find out.... if I didnt already have a buyer on the LT's and the factory manifolds ready to go back on then just leave them. They may not even notice but on the other hand someone who would be looking for that may be glad that you already have them on there that way they dont have to worry about doing it since the header jobs can get costly depending on where you live. I say slap a big for sale sign on it and drive it to the local dragstrip on the weekends or the car hangout spots that way it gets recognition. Or the usual craigslist, classifieds or ebay.
