Default Selling the car. Whats a good price for it?

Well guys. I've just decided today that I'm going to sell the civic for many reasons. I was wondering what you think it is worth with all the mods (dont feel like parting it out). Last time I checked on kbb it was worth like $7,000. Well , here is the list of mods.

1998 Honda Civic EX ( Taffetta White )

117,500 miles never raced. ( its the truth)

EXTERIOR:

- Feels style grill & lip
- Wings West side skirts & rear valence
- Tsunami wing
- KW Muth blinking side view mirrors. (Just like the Ford Expeditions)
- 17" SSR GPO Evolutions w/nt450. Also have 2 extra center caps.
- PIAA 1900x foglights w/ super plasma bulbs
- Clear tails painted half red
- Clear headlights painted black
- Stillen fender flares

SUSPENSION:

- H&R coilovers
- Suspension Techniques rear sway bar
- Front & rear camber kits
- Neuspeed front upper bar
- APC rear upper bar (yes APC , cause it deserves to get scratched up in the trunk)
- Tenzo rear lower bar

INTERIOR:

- Sparco Star seats (black)
- Sparco pedals
- Sparco shift knob
- Custom gray&black rear seats and door panels
- Carbon Fiber dash kit
- Indiglo gauges
- Carbon Fiber instrument overlay
- Carbon Fiber E-brake
- Autometer air/fuel ratio gauge
- Pioneer deck (the one with the screensavers)
- Sony x-plod 61/2 & 6x9
- Clifford Alarm
- OEM Cargo net
- OEM floor mats

ENGINE:

- AEM CAI silver
- DC ceramic 4-2-1 1-piece header
- RS*R cat-back exhaust
- Jacobs Ignition (ice pack)
- B&M fuel pressure gauge
- B&M fuel pressure regulator
- Polished valve cover
- STR carbon dress-up

Well that is all that I can think of. I have most of the receipts for the mods. I also have the stock wheels/tires , grill , seats , airbox , side skirts , & tailights. So what do you guys think?

the car is worth 6k

selling it to anybody you could get, i'd say 8k

selling it to an enthusiast paying cash, you could get 9-11k depending on how retarded he is...

just givin it to you like it is

i honestly think you can make more money trying to sell it the stuff and making it stock

also 6k you guys are smoking crack, his car is clean and nice, me, inspy, and asiandood all have seen it in person....someone interested in a modded car will buy it for more hten that, but i still say you'd make more if you sell the parts

also what are you planning on now dude? still got your bike right?

Inspyral: Thanks for posting them pics bro.

Here are more pics on this link. The only thing different is that those fake azz ricer hood pins are gone and so is the projectors replaced with clear headlights painted black. http://community.webshots.com/user/cplmedina

Airon: Well I'm still wondering if I should get the car I really want or get something cheap for now till I get settled. As for the bike , I still have it. Selling it crossed my mind , but sitting in bay area traffic threw that thought out the window real quick.

Asiandood: I would be sad to see it go too. It is the first car I ever bought on my own. B4 the civic I wanted a VW but it cost to much. Then a 4-door civic , but it was like $1300 more than the coupe. Bought the coupe in Dec 97 for $14,577 and I was making $6.53 hr

I thought about parting it out but the most I would get from the seats , coilovers , & wheels is probably $2500-$2700. All the other little shiat that I can take out like strut bars , sway bar , camber kits , body kit , and some engine mods probably $500.

I'll see first if I can get somewhere between $10-11. If noone hops on it . I'll part it out.

Dont lose all hope yet fellas. There is a slight chance I might keep the car and possibly mods as well cause of my financial situation , but my reasons are more toward either selling it or back to stock.

i think 7k is about all its worth in cash, but you will definitely make more by parting it out although it will take you longer to get the money, if time is a priority then sell it as one, if not part it....
