The car needs a power window motor. The interior is in good shape. The window tint is beginning to peel on the passenger side window, and is scratched on the back glass. The wheels have some curb rash.

6.5K + or - 1k depending on condition, looks really good in the pics, I might ask 7.5k to allow for negotiations. Curios how much did you spend on the repaint? It looks nice, but unfortunately your are getting a small % of value added compared to what you spent. I'd be a buyer at 5K, but I would just be looking to resale at 6.5-7

That's it, huh? I was hoping to get close to $10k. The repaint was $4k if I remember correctly. Thanks for the info.

Probably could ask $8k for it here in michigan.
I think the mods would help it sell pretty quick if someone is looking for modded car.

That paint is badass

Well I just sold an 01 ss with 120k for 7250, it was not as nice looking but it was 3 years newer and had 30k less miles. If someone really likes what you have done to the car it wouldn't be unreasonable to ask 10k, and see if you get anyone that looks at it and loves it, but I wouldn't expect to get 10

Thanks. I might put it on eBay with a $9k reserve and see what happens. It never hurts to try.

Finding someone who will lay out good money for a modded 16+ year old car with 150k on it is going to be a challenge, given that book value is around $4200 on it.

I think your best bet would be to start with 6k,

Then gather every bit of documentation you have, receipts, service etc.
Line item all of the upgrades with costs
Take that total and multiply by 25%
Add that to the the starting 6k. See what the brings you too, and it would be a handy selling aid.
