If you want to try and get as much money as possible without removing all of your mods then do a little research into used dealerships in Vancouver Canada. I've heard that there are a few places that look to the US to import moded cars that you cant get locally!
Not ideal for you but its worth a shot man, usually the more mods = more money!

Yeah true if your trading in, but there is a market out there that is looking for cars that are already moded .... and they WILL pay good $$$ for it!
If thats not an option go "private sale"... The best way to get the most dollars!

hmmm inertesting.. I still have like 7-8k left on the payments. we'll c how much the dealer is offering first. (car is at 53k mileage/clean title)
I would probably take the Intake and tails out. You can sell them pretty easily and it shouldn't be that hard.
I bet if you put the stock grill back in they won't even notice it was modded. But it does depend on the dealer, if it is a scion dealer they may see that it is modded.
But my dealer told me to keep all my OEM parts or sell the car to a friend because they would give me less for it if I traded it back in one day.

wow that pretty good jus 7-8k chances are theyll give u about that since its such low miles and clean title etc. theyll jus look at the condition of the car and ofcourse u take the aftermarket parts off and ur good
back to stock, but i was intrigued by that guy talking about vancouver dealerships.
dunno how much truth there is to that, but it's worth a try.
im keeping all of my stock parts just in case.

im going to keep the tc after all.. I was thinking about trading it in n just use my bro 03' is300 (manuel) cuz is just here sitting n collecting dust but he told me to keep the tc n I could use the is300 whenever cuz he has like 3 other cars. oh well!! thanks y'all for yr responds =)
u ppl should only mod your car if u know your going to keep it for a really long time...if not your just wasting money...
btw they will know if u had aftermarket parts since the seal is broken (the blue paint ect)
