What would be a good selling price?
Im just trying to get some ideas on what my car would be worth selling it instead of trading it in. Im looking at getting a ST and they were only going to give me $11,000 for Trade-In which is less than what I owe still.

The car is a:
2010 SES with 45,xxx miles
Rapid Spec 401A package:
power moonroof
premium sound system
Engine Block Heater
Leather Heated Seats

Aftermarket parts Installed include:
FSWerks Cool-Flo CAI
FSWerks Header
FSWerks Stealth Exhaust
Steeda STS
Eibach Pro-Line lowering springs
Design Rotor Technology Drilled & Slotted Rotors (factory size)
SCT Xcal3 W/ tune from Tom
AEM wideband installed
Retrofitted headlights and foglights
Vleds switchback LEDS for front turn/parking lights
Vleds LED tail light bulbs
PlastiDip'd wheels and badges

here are some pictures from when I purchased it:

If I were to list it would you think $14,000 OBO would be a good starting point?

The black looks so good!

Drive it to me, We trade and mines still worth 12.5-13k lol

Honestly, check out NADA and KBB and see what you can get for it.
The problem with selling yourself is it can take months to sell! The dealers pay you less because they are willing to sit on it to make some money.

But sometimes you get lucky, I just listed my R6 for sale for $4k, the KBB/NADA value is like $3100, but the bike is MINT and decent mileage and well taken care of. Selling it tomorrow for $4k!

List it, see what happens and if you get bored of waiting then trade it in.

honestly i don't think you would see 14k for it even with the mods. I see them retailing at dealerships for that kind of money around me. Id say maybe 12-13k if you found the right buyer. If not I would put the car back to stock and sell the aftermarket parts and trade it in. You can probably make 1k with those mods if you were motivated.

Man times are hard - you have a great car - keep it until the economy picks up!

Why sell it now when you are likely to be hit with a raft of low bidders.

Which temp you to sell it - then one week later you say - quote - What Have I Done?!
