Default Thinking about selling my car

So, I have been thinking about selling my car. I really want to get an STi, and considering how much they have been going down in price, I think I could probably get one without spending an arm and a leg. Does anyone have any educated speculations on how the market will be doing in this next 8 months? And.. How much should I be asking for my car?

2002 WRX (Salvaged Title)

If I sell it with mods:
2006 STi Body
OZ-Prodrive Rims
TEIN Flex w/ EDFC
Injen CAI
GFB BOV WRX hybrid
Catless Uppipe
Full custom TBE
Strut tower braces

STi seats and Door Cards
6.5" Alpine X Type component front speakers
kenwood DNX 5120 Navigation package
2 10" kicker comp subs
alpine 200 watt x 4 channel amp
kicker 2x350 watt amp


This is really just a thought, and if I can get a reasonable amount for it, I will definitely sell it. Even if it means I will be out of the AutoX season and out of a car for a while.

-Chris

My salvage title stock '02 WRX sold for $10K a couple years back with only 30K miles. You didn't mention how many miles you have.

Some of your mods might decrease value, not add. Depends on buyer.

A 2002 WRX w/ a salvage title? $2000-$5000 IMO, depending on mileage. All the work and mods mean nothing with a salvage title, and they mean next to nothing w/ a clean title.

You'd get far more for the car by parting it out.

How much crack can you get for a baby nowadays? I mean is it down with the markets or does it depend on how ugly the baby is?

I have six kittens now, how much crack can that get me? I mean just for reference purposes.

There is no exact kitten to crack exchange rate but everyone knows if you got the smack, you can always get a little pussy for it...


Sorry, I couldn't stop myself.

Smack = heroin, not crack cocaine.

I was going to use "Candy" or "Sugar" but decided to use some punetic license and use smack instead.

If you had told me that we'd have a thread with chicken heads, smack, and punetic in it, I'd never have believed you.

Punetic License is the Punny version of Poetic License.

Punny is the adjective form of Pun, or so I am claiming.

Oh, and I am old and strange and thus often more amused by my own jokes than others are.

And in hindsight, it may not have been as much of a pun as a witty play on words, again, or so I thought.
