Geez. Why you selling with all that and seemingly a lot of money you have put in. I'd probably rather good money for that in consideration of the mileage, condition and year.

It's been quite a lot of money I've put down to make the Maxima look, ride, and sound like she does...
But now I have a son I have to support and I can't be tempted to keep putting more money into the Maxima...
I also bought an Oldsmobile Bravada so I can transport stuff to and from college...the trunk of the Maxima is totally filled with the sound system and air ride suspension...
The Maxima is in awesome condition, just over 100k miles, soft leather, really nice paint...

IBTL,
no matter how much you put into a vehicle it will never be worth that amount

molehill84

Yeah, that's one of the down sides to modding a car...this was my first car...I'm still not positive if I'm going to sell it, we'll see what everyone thinks...

btw, I'm not down with ALL the lingo everyone uses on here...what is IBTL anyway?

In Before The Lock. The track record of people selling 3rd gens with tons of work invested into them is not very good in terms of final selling price. In the past 4 months or so I've seen at least 3-4 3rd gens go up for sale with over $10k invested in the car, and none have sold AFAIK. Others with less work but still well-modded have sold well short of their original asking price. I personally doubt you'd get more than $5k for the car.

keep it pretty for 10 more years and it will sell for 10k

IF you end up parting out.......

I'll take ALL of the Warpspeed stuff. PM me with condition, age and price, really if you think it's in good-great price that's the $$ we can settle on. Thanks!!

Hell for that matter throw in the FPR Pump and Zex kit, I'm sure we can come up with a price

I agree with Mizeree. You might be able to get close to $5k, but I would think that's about it. Not many people want a fully modded car. They would rather buy one for a few thousand and do the rest of the work themselves, a lot of times, as they get the money.

Anything is possible, but like the guys before me said, you just don't get the money you put into a car when you try to sell it.

Good luck, though. You might just find someone who really wants it. Put it on Craigslist for a while at the optimum price you want. Craigslist is free and lots of people look there.

molehill84

Hey guys, thanks for the replies...we'll see if anyone is interested in the car...
It sucks to think I'd get anything less than 10k, I mean last summer I put the air ride on and that alone was 3k...
How do I put it on Craigslist??
BTW, the car definitely will never be parted out...
