what do you thinkk my car is worth....

I am considering selling my car. I have a 2004 ebony/black non navi 6 speed manual trans with 93k on it. I am original owner and the car is in excellent condition with new tires(1 year old) and brakes. I am guessing around 13k based on what Ive seen. What do you guys think ? The only mods I have are 35% tint all around and a line in hookup. Just testing the waters...

no pics? I say its worth 2 grand
Look on CL for similar cars for sale in your area, check our own member cars for sale in the Off Topic link
Take it to a differant brand dealer and ask what they will buy it straight out for
Your mods count for nothing for value- sorry

Check kbb.com- look at the dealer wholesale and retail prices,,split the differance
1 year old tires are not considered new and an ipod hookup is a personal choice,, neither adds actual value to the sale--every car has tints

Its also coming due for a very expensive service--and possibly being sold at that time as many TLs are,,the dreaded 105- have to figure thats $1500 in retail sale or loss of price because it needs to be done soon

Good luck on your search!

My local dealer serviced the 105 for 625 dollars. I opted out of them doing the spark plug change and did that myself. Spark plugs were either 6 or 10 a plug from Advance Auto.

wow- exactly what parts did they replace for that price??

timing belt, water pump is standard--the timing belt pulley and tensioner, and ac belt tensioner plus new belt are a wise replacement at the same time,,
especially the tbelt tensioner---that fails and the engine blows

DIY plugs are a huge savings- good job there!

valve adjustment highly advised
