Default What do you think its worth?

I'm just curious to see what you guys think this car could sell for, it is NOT for sale by any means, but I'd like to know what you think. The car itself is almost immaculate and the mods have less than 1500 miles on them. I'm sure I'm missing some things but these are the basics:

2000 WS6 A4
Black/Ebony, 60k, EXTREMELY clean

XP Racing 9:1 396ci
Brand new LS6 block
Lunati Crank
Lunati Pistons
Eagle Rods
ARP Fasteners
AFR 205's
XP Blower Cam
2 core radiator
XP True Duals w/Magnaflow Race Mufflers

D1-SC Procharger Twin Intercooler kit w/3.77" Pulley
FAST Rails
Aeromotive Regulator
50lb Injectors
Twin Walbro's
Slotted Brakes

Built 4L60E w/triple Disc PI 3200 stall

Sphon LCA's, Relocation Brackets, Adj. Panhard, Adj. body mt. TQ arm and QA1's

Fikse FM/10's, 17x10 and 17x12, TechniPolish.

The car should make mid 700's to the wheels.

I have over $22k worth of receipts for the mods. What do you guys think?



Also, I thought I made this post already but I can't find it, and because of the apostrophes in my name it won't let me search.

I know its worth as much as someone is willing to pay, but I'm curious what that is.

it's hard to say. stock.. it's worth 15k maybe? you won;t get money back on your mods though.. especially the Fikses... though they are f-ing sweet.

worth? i guess it depends on how you define worth. to me, "worth" is what someone would be willing to pay.

i doubt that many people would pay over 20K for a modded 4th gen.

and in terms of 36k? you could build the car for less.

Didn't you just buy this car to replace the white one?

So..., basically you are looking to see whether you overpaid, huh?

To me, something like that would be worth maybe 18-20K.

You could probably build the car for right around $36k, but I could never sell it for that. I KNOW I didn't over pay thats for sure. I'm honestly curious what I could make on it, lol, but I like it way too much to sell it.

my guess would be around 20k, there was a supercharged transam i saw earlier that was immaculate and low miles the highest offer was right around 20k, he ended up demodding it and returning it to stock and selling off the parts...o and the engine in that was a 402

Default ok

So the new camaro comes out in a year and you'll be able to get a new one for about 30 so any number close to 30 goes right out the window for most prudent folks. My second thought is, if you're not selling...why wonder what it's worth? Don't take it the wrong way, just throwin my 2 cents in there.

I'm not selling it, and if you don't like me asking what is worth because I'm not selling it then don't post . The new Camaro doesn't have much to do with my car at all, if someone wants a new Camaro why would they look at a TA, and vice versa? I think I could sell it for $22-25k, I wonder if that is unreasonable?

With the mileage on the car I would pay 21-24k, if it had lower miles I would pay 25-27k. I usually sell my cars at 60k. I would be willing to drive that car with more than 60k, I would just not plan on reselling it because miles kill the resell value. After paying mid 20s for it with 60k and putting any kind of real mileage on it you would not be able to sell it and get your money back. It would have to be a keeper.

Low 20's seems about right. Right now it is just hard to sell a highly priced 4th gen. Consider the factors going against getting a high bid.

*Selling a sports car in a recession
*I dont know any bank that will loan money for a car that old, so cash will have to be in hand
*Alot of nice cars for sale at around the same price
*Being modded brings in less potential buyers, in addition a car has to be modded to the buyers preferance in order for it to be worth anything (further limiting potential buyers)
*When you start dealing in the low 20's-mid 20's you are in the corvette range

I have seen some very well built cars being sold for either far less than they should, or being forced to part out because no one will pay the price of a proper build

All very good points, I suppose the difference for me is that I'm not actively looking to sell it, if someone offers a good price, then sure, but you know how that is. I love the car and could keep it forever, I was just curious. Thanks!
