The guy should return as much of the car to stock as he can, I think it would be much easier to sell and then just try to sell the aftermarket parts.

And remove all the decals and stickers..

If you took off the fog lights and mud flaps than I don't think it would look all at bad.

However owns it must have had a Honda before :p

Flaps should be black IMO. The red is overkill. Fogs don't match.

well the ad does mention that he has taken the fog lights out and replaced the OEM grille. it also says he has all of the stock parts except for the exhaust. to me that sounds like a project, putting the car back to stock to increase resale value, and it doesn't seem the asking price reflects that. sadly aftermarket parts have little resale value when attached to vehicle. @Batman IMO you would sell this vehicle faster if you replaced more stock parts yourself instead of putting it on the new owner to do, and also updated pictures of said actions would help as well .
*update, I just read your other posts in the forum, you have been trying to sell this thing for a while and you seem to have started to part out the aftermarket stuff. good idea

Quote:
All in all, I am about $30k into this car including all of the parts and the car. Also, as this car was leased, I have the option of transferring this lease to you through Toyota Financial. The payments will be $293, and we can work out what extra cash I will need to make up the difference between the lease payoff and the 'purchase price'. I have it listed for $25,500, but will accept a little negotiation if needed. I have a new car lined up to buy, so need to work fast.

Didn't you see the "Because Racecar" sticker on the back?

Yeah honestly I bet the low-balling dealer is thinking it's going to be hard to sell the car like that because any buyer is going to be wondering just what has been done to the car. People don't want to buy something that someone else has customized the hell out of, it just seems scary and unknown.
