with or without the knocking in the motor from giving it a drink of water?
your exterior stuff is probably worth like $800, engine $400, not sure on the audio stuff but maybe a few hundred there too.
So like $1500 for your mods, and the car its self might get you $10k, without the engine knock.
Just my rough figures

cool cool and both lol but im getting the engine fixed this thursday =), but i was considering either parting out my car or selling it as it is and getting either a gti or an rx8 but its still too much money so im gonna keep my car
my figure for your aftermarket worth is probably a little low, depending on how long you want to wait for stuff to sell.
but dont trade the car as-is, you might end up getting less than 10 with all the aftermarket stuff on it. Cause now they got to take off alot of stuff so they can put the extended plan on it.
good on you for getting the motor fixed, hope it all works out well.

The value of s modified car would depend on how much a potential buyer wants it and how motivated you are to sell it.
You are asking the wrong crowd...we all know modified cars sell for less than the owners think it's worth and its better to go back to stock before selling.
I think you'd get a more "real world" response if you asked on a forum that isn't car related.

ive worked at multiple car dealers, trust me nobody wants a modded car. When i traded my first tc, it was an auto fm with no real mods aside from red pillars, an exhaust and gunmetal painted stockies.
It saw about 6 tc's go before it, until some kid picked it up. Two days later he brought it in and they had to replace the WeaponR intake i had put on it, because the kid messed with it and the filter fell off and was lost. They warrantied it, because they sold it as a Certified used, which is a huge selling point.
it will take forever to find a buyer whos style is exact to diegos and likes all his mods.

I would never buy a car that has been previously modified unless its someone I know.
We all had those DIY days where there is 1 screw that's left over and you can't remember where it goes so you say whatever who cares lol.
I would hate to buy a car from a owner like that lol
Edit: Not saying you are an owner like that. Just saying this paranoia prevents me from buying a modded car.

Out of curiosity... how much do you guys think my car would go for?

Diego, If I were buying your car I would probably give you no more than 9K for it. 30K+ miles is already getting to be a lot and as a buyer, I would look at it this way. I wouldn't have more than a couple years before I have to start bringing it in for repair.
Unless you're selling within a community like SL your mods wont matter at all. You could have the top award winning tC show car in the world but you still wont get much with a general buyer.
If you go on Cars.com you can find plenty tCs with less than 20K miles that go for under 13K
