This holds more true unfortunately. It would be best to return it back to stock and then sell the parts and the car.

I'd say 19k. Maybe 20 if you found the right buyer.

It all depends on the buyer and thats it. I payed more for my car a few years ago because I only wanted electric blue. If someone is looking for what you have then they'll pay your price. If no one wants what you have then you'll sell at their price.

18 tops. It's a buyer's market, your car has high mileage, and it's modified. None of these factors work in your favor.

I don't know man.. It's a tough market right now. I've got my car listed and I'm not really getting any bites. I have mine listed for slightly more than you seem to be wanting for your car. I don't have many mods, and the look is pretty dead stock.

'06 GG Evo MR ~32.5k miles (mods are in sig)

So are you trying to sell it privately or stealership? Either way, you can negotiate price. Alot of people don't like stealerships because they don't know what to do. Everyone plays that tough guy act when they go into the dealership and leaves mad. What do you expect, it isn't Mcdonalds, you can't have everything your way.

First, don't be scared to list a price and be firm about it.
Second, don't get to greedy either.

Back to the topic, I wouldn't pay anymore then 16k. I don't know the history of the car, so I'll assume the worst. I don't know how many owners its had. If you smoke, have pets or kids? If the car was serviced regularly. Accidents, door dings, repainted anywhere, engine problems? We don't know anything about the car, so "WE" can't really give you an accurate estimate on the car.

Since you asked, no, I don't think you'll get >22K... I think you should start at 20K, and work from there.

you would be really lucky to get more than 20k. Its an 8 with alot of miles with alot of bolt ons. I sold my 05 8 MR with 59k and got 20k and mine was in mint condition with all bolt ons. GL

HOw is 56k miles on an 05 high mileage???

I've got 68k on an 03 and that is relatively Low mileage when you look at the national average. Are there 03s running around with less miles, of course. But a true DD will average 10-15k miles a year.

This is the worst time to sell a car, especially ours. If you are lucky, you might get 19k. I gave up, as I felt I was giving my car away at lower than 18k.

Good luck.

I'll take from your hand for $500 bucks Jus playing. Anyways, like someone in here said, what you think the car is worth is totally different than what the person buying think it is worth. I would think if you sell it on your own, you could get it for $17K to $19K depends. The right buyer will come.
