[QUOTE="Willie, post: 16363038, member: 14133"] History has proven over and over that you never get any more for mods. Even if that's not bad enough, a buyer will obviously scrutinize a modded car even more than a stock one. That being said, to get the most back, it must be stock or near stock. In the real world, that would be easy on a lightly modded car, but not one like yours. So you should develop a list of things you can "undo" and do it. Sell the car and emphasize the positives, i.e. a motor that's been strengthened to add "insurance" of it lasting for a long time. You get the picture. Then sell your parts to recover some of what you put into it. But above all >> NEVER trade a car in. That is like handing thousands over to a dealership and getting nothing in return. I don't know if the following applies to you, but I also never buy from a dealership. You never get history and it's always nice to talk to the owner directly to ask those questions dealerships don't have answers to. This is true especially in Arizona, where a private party sale is exempt from paying any sales tax upon transferring the title. These are the things I have learned over time and always follow my own words. [/QUOTE]
