the joy of modifying cars - you never get back what you put into them. This car could sell for $22k, but it would take a while, especially when there are MY00 GC8's going for $5-8k

Yeah it does, but its not a 1:1 return on investment on cars.

My paint panel wheels and interior cost me more than the car did, and I wouldnt get it back.

Here's a protip, you'll NEVER get a return on what you spend on modifying a car unless it is rare / collectible.

Or you part it out - but you'll still lose out.

You will never get remotely close to what you spend on a car when you try to sell it, even if it is an internet sensation.. Its why people chose to part them out.

My engine alone is worth more than what I'd be able to sell the completed car for.

*if its ever finished.

So far its just an EOI.

So far the interest expressed is at the crack ball pricing.

Failzzzzzzzzzzzz.

Boring.

Post a price or this will be deleted.

I really hope you get $25k+ for it, as that means mine is worth more
