Default Selling My Car

Well after the last month I have come to the realization that I should sell my car because I need a better daily driver and dont have to money or space to make it my second car as Im a freshman in college. I was wondering what yo guys think I could possibly get for my car. It just went over 20,000 miles. I know I wont get much more with the mods I have on it as they dont really effect the price of the car in a better way for me. Im going to take the aftermarket throttle body and plenum, CAI, stereo, and tuner off and sell those separately and put the stock items back on. Im also going to sell all my supercharger stuff(basically a kit now) and put the money I get from all of that stuff into getting something like a Tahoe. I really wish I could keep this car, but its just not practical right now. After college is over and I have a full time job ill definitely be back in the mustang world. So how much should I sell the car, CAI, Throttle body/plenum, tuner, and super charger stuff for?
Heres a list what I have with the supercharger stuff:
Vortech polished V2 S trim (just over 1000 miles on t)
CX Racing Intercooler kit
Steeda powerpipe
Spark Plugs
60lb injectors
90mm MAF with adapter
Spectre Air filter
Vortech plastic BOV
3.125 and 3.66 pulleys
Bracket Kit
I might be forgetting something else, but basically everything needed except like small hoses and a few couplers.

Thanks,
Brian

I would try to sell the car, as it with all the parts first and see what you can get. What kind of DD you looking at getting?

If you took down some of the mods, it would be fine as a daily driver. Mine's been getting me everywhere I need to go since early 2005, without a hitch.

Im looking at getting an SUV of some sorts. Probably a Tahoe. It really matters how much money I get for all the stuff. Itd be nice to have enough money to install a really nice sund system, but Im looking for a car first. I thought about detuing my car and keeping it, but I would be inclined to add performance mods again to it and that would defeat the purpose of what im doing. Plus a SUV is much more comfortable for my size and how much I drive on a regular basis.

I'd list the car @ 11.5 and see what happens....put all the extra parts up on the classifieds on corral.net and that baby will be gone within a few days. Best of luck man.

definitely try to sell the car with the blower first... But take off some of the bolt ons for some extra side cash. Like the TB/plenum and such
