Default Resale value?

Not sure where to post this, there isnt really a section to place it...

How much do you think my 06 FM tC could sell for?

20 thousand miles - Always changed @ 3k with synthetic.
Pedastal Spoiler
LoJack *What a regret that was*
M/T

Infinity Basslink in the Hatch.
20% Tints

MMW Headers
Injen Intake
TRD Exhaust
Hotchkis Springs

Blue Gauges/Red Hvac
CF Gauge Cluster/Center Armrest/Mirror Covers (IF Firmwareworx ever ships them)

CF Dash
Door Sills

Leather
MOMO Shift ****

Few paint chips on the hood, someone dinged my rear fender which I popped back out.

I figure around 18 or so?

Sounds like you spent a lot of time on the car to just get rid of it.

Why are you considering selling? Is there a problem? Grass is always greener? Lose your job?

Sometimes it's good to treat a car like a tool, get A to B... and sometimes it's good for entertainment value. It's not so easy to switch cars, especially when you'll have to return this one to stock to have any equity with a dealer.


There are days when I love my car, and wouldn't trade it for the world... Then there are other days where I wish I could have afforded something faster.

I am not really considering getting rid of it...just curious I think.

I love this car...it's really a good time. Im planning on moving to FL within the next month or two...When I get there im going to pick up a boxster for a toy and keep this as a daily or maybe an IS300...

$18K might be a little high.

I think 18k is reasonable but the problem is that people will still see that they can get a brand spankin new one for less.

You'd get 18K for it from another individual...

but dealers see mods as problems that they have to fix, by returning it to stock.

Yeah I almost traded in my tC for a 350Z and they were gonna give me $15,500 (27,xxx miles). That's with the navigation system/ DVD player, $2000 set of wheels, and MANY, MANY more extras. Needless to say, that deal didn't go far.

Private party would yeild more $ though.
