I'd say less than 3k due to the amount of body work that you will have to do to the car once you take that atrocious body kit off.

I say it's worth $5K in parts, tops.

For all that will come in here just to say "rice" and not answer OP's question, PHACK OFF.

Are you looking at the same pics as we are. All it has are ebay parts.

I say it's only worth what the motor cost, other than that, it's ruined. Get a clean shell and swap the engine and a few other misc parts over.

I think it would only be worth it to buy if you planned to continue to build it as a show car-

as crazy as the body kit is, the body work and kit seem to fit pretty well-

it would be alot of work to take all of that off, especially since it looks molded to the fenders/quarterpanel/under the door

To be honest, carbon-covered or not, those wheels don't really hold a significant resale value... so their value is negligible. Those death trap seats also don't say anything positive for the parts used on this vehicle. I'd say maybe $3,000 depending on what's under the hood.

That body kit fits extremely well.


I wouldnt pay a penny more than $2500. Since ill have to purchase OEM fenders, bumpers, hood, head lights, side skirts, and have a shop professionally remove the rear fender flares.

Other then that, looks good to me.

i could see this car selling for 5 G. not that I would pay that but cmon, it does have alot of work into it. theres no point in talking bout how much it would take to de-rice this car. i doubt this car would be sold to someone who would de-rice it. its going to be bought by a high school kid whos going to love it. and btw, its not THAT bad. ive seen much worse.

how do the turn signals work with a bumper like that? are they wired to the headlights?

if it had some wheels that sat flush with the flares it would be a pretty nice show car

I AGREE with the wheels comment. Was the first thing I said.

Maybe a 1/4 spacer behind em would help.

its worth as much as the seller and buyer decide. if your looking for that type of car you may be willing to pay more for it, just as the seller will ask more for it if he knows there is someone looking. Its the same for the HT uber "JDM" crowd, willing to pay more for mugen and spoon then a "lambo door guy" would. I say 4k tops if its got low miles and everything works.
