Default I might sell the Accord (sorry).

So I was thinking about retiring her. I am still unsure what I want to get though, maybe another Honda, maybe not. Anyway I have no idea what she is worth. Maybe you guys can help me.

1994 Accord EX Coupe
Bordeuax Red
Light Grey interior
Kenwood KDC 9000 (no big deal)
Power windows, locks, moonroof, mirrors
All that other stuff everyones knows comes standard
KYB AGX's all around
H&R Sports
17" Enkei RS-E
Kuhmo 712's
Clear corners and bumpers
1 month old new paint
Clean inside except some blemishes on back seat.
Speedo still acts nuts sometimes.
Power window motors and regulators replaced last year.
A/C works pretty good, unless it is 100+

Now for the bad.......171K (ouch)

Heres a pic.

May return to stock, EX wheels would have new tires. Also the stock shocks and springs are 2 1/2 years old. Heres another pic.

I am just asking what you guys think its worth, it may or may not be for sale. When that time occurs I will post it in the For Sale/Wanted forum!

Thanks.

If you part it out, PM Me cause I'll go for those springs/shocks possibly.

It usually sits lower in the rear, but the tank is bone dry. Also the front may look lower since it has no camber kit and the tires lean towards the top, making it look lower than it is.

For appraising your cars worth i suggest using edmunds.com used car appraisal guide. You will most likely get the most money if you go back to all stock parts. I would have looked it up for you but i don't know all the options on your car. Also check out kbb.com (kelly blue book) as well and compare the two prices they give you. This, combined with selling your aftermarket parts separatley should give you a decent sum of money.

If you don't mind, i have a few questions about your suspension setup.

1. Since you don't have a camber kit, how bad is the tire wear?
2. How is the ride, and what settings do you have your shocks on?
3. Do the tires ever rub over bumps? do you scrape alot?

Sorry about all the questions, its just that your car looks just like mine besides being a 2-door and im thinking about buying your exact spring/shot combo

It depends how you are going to sell it, STOCK OR WITH AFTERMARKET PARTS? I think anywhere from 4k-5k is a good deal. KBB.COM Blue Book Private Party Report is listed at $4,085. But I have to say that baby looks mint and clean bro.

Thanks for the comments. It will most likely be put back to stock unless someone sees it in its current configuration and will pay extra for the goodies. As for your questions smakdown:
1. Tire wear isn't that bad. I drive at least 80 miles round trip everytime I work and they are still fine. I have them flipped and rotated often (a friend works at a tire shop)
2. The ride is good I usually have them on 2 in the front and 4 in the rear. Lately I have experimented with 1 front 2 rear and it just feels......weird.
3. The tires do not rub at all. Never have. And I wouldn't say I scrape alot, but I do scrape enough. YOu really just have to watch out. Also the undertray usually scrapes more than the chin spoiler. You learn to take speed bumps/driveways at angles, one wheel at a time.
