Interesting one here - it's got the benefits of being an '02, a WS6, and having the 6-speed...but here's the negatives:


95k miles
SES code from O2 sensor that I can't seem to fix
ABS, BRAKE, and TCS lights come on after 10 minutes of driving (wheel speed sensors?)
Passenger-side seat vinyl cracked
Couple of minor exterior blemishes
Exhaust leak
Cooling system issues (loose cap or leak somewhere)
Both door panels slightly cracked near window


Basically, I just want to dump this. I don't have the time nor know-how to handle all of this on my own. Would it be worth it to have a shop fix these issues then sell it? Not sure if I'd be able to recoup the costs through increased value with the high mileage...other mods include:


BMR shocks and sway bar
17x9.5 chrome Z06 replicas with new BFG 275 tires all around
Pacesetter LT headers and Y
Clear air intake lid (forgot brand)
Tubing in place for 150 dry shot (haven't used in years)
Custom stereo system with Eclipse head unit & component amp, JL subs/amp, and CDT speakers
Short-throw shifter
160* tstat


I'm sure I'm missing a few here. Frustrating, as it still runs fine, but just has a ton of nagging issues that are getting on my nerves. Any idea what I could get 1) as-is and 2) with the issues above fixed?

With the mileage approaching 6 figures I personally would not spend more $$ to sell it because you won't get it back. You indicate you want to 'dump it' with all the issues the car is experiencing. I agree. Either trade it in or sell for cheap with a full disclaimer of the issues.

:\ thanks for the feeback.

What do you think of CarMax vs. a dealer trade-in?

Not familar enough with CarMax to comment. Maybe someone else can assist.
