Default what would you SELL this car for?

I'm testing waters on my del sol.. I had an offer today, but I'm hoping I can pull more out of it. I'm writing up a list of mods right now, I was wondering if someone could give me their idea on a good sell price.

1993 del sol s
98+ spec jdm integra type r swap with LSD transmission, jdm p30 plus chipped p28
right at 50k miles on the motor.
stock body, paint is a little over a year old
carbon fiber hood half painted to match body
omni test pipe
Espelir catback exhaust - jdm y0
omni full coilovers
omni lower control arms in rear
omni camber kits all around
rear disk brake conversion
stainless steel brake lines
powerslot rotors all around
red rota gt3 16 inch heels with new(2 months) kumho tires
one piece black/amber headlights
JDM map lights
JDM sun visors
BDL industries fuel rail
AEM cold air intake
del sol VTEC gauge cluster reading 59k miles
autometer 5 inch Tach mounted on dash
B&M bent style short shifter with polished **** and urethane bushing
suspension technique front and rear sway bars
vac guage and oil pressure guage one pillar

i just put new plugs, cap and rotor

Id say anywhere between 5,5-7k..pick a number a little higher than what you expect to get..that allows for the buyer trying to beat you down.

Personally I dont like that hood and the front end it looks kinda like a frog lmao and Im not feelin the red rims on white car either..mechanically its a nice car though i will admit..

But (1)not my car (2) u didnt ask for opinions on looks..

the car is in good condition it looks like...of course im not fond of that look but I dont see any dents or rust. It also has a very nice mod list. Id say 6-7k. Are you really willing to give up your car that you worked so hard on?

get rid of that sticker and it might help your cuase. Other than that the car looks to be in good shape. Not so much my taste but I'm sure there are people out there who would like it.

You'd probably get an extra $1k for taking that ridiculous sticker off your windshield. Of course, if you have that sticker on in the first place, you probably associate with others who would be deemed "white trash," so maybe they'll give you that extra $1k for having it on there already, thus saving them the time and money of putting it on themselves at a later date. White trash is as white trash does. Seriously, have some dignity.

Attempts at insults aside, you've obviously put a lot of time and consideration into the car. The engine bay is a thing of beauty. The hood could be repainted in full and would probably help give you a little more leverage in negotiating a higher price. The 6-8k range would be acceptible, especially if the interior is in excellent condition (no tears, stains, missing buttons, broken gauges, etc.)

being that the del sol was the very first Honda I fell in love with, and given that I myself am white trash LOL, I don't think its such a bad car. Its got a real nice mod list

Its hard to assign a value to all the blood sweat and tears put into a car this old. If ur asking us this post, then obviously the amount offered was enough to make you consider selling.

Tack on a grand and sell it. Start a new project. Del sol's are goofy looking no matter what you do to them. U should pick up an ej1 or something and start a new project . U did an awesome job with the sol show us what you can do with another platform.

I'm actually moving from atlanta, ga to dallas texas.. I'm debating selling the car or leaving it in atlanta until I get my **** settled in dallas. and either sell it or go get it. I don't have the job/money to put into another car like this. I'm selling my 4 CRX's for sure. I hate to get rid of this car.

btw this is a picture of the car the day i bought it.

small change aye?

I don't know how feasible it would be for you, but if you can take the current setup back to that ^^^ (at least aesthetically) you should be able to sell the car very quickly. Good luck!
