I have a 2005 G35 coupe with ~70k miles on it. It has a fresh built IPP block about 15k miles ago and a vortech supercharger putting out 450 to the wheels. It probably needs new struts as it has been lowered on just tein springs and there are 2 areas on the body that need touched up, nothing major. Besides that it's clean and interior is mint.

I had it posted on Craigslist and eBay for 16k and got almost zero interest.

What am I realistically able to get and do you recommend listing any where else besides obviously this site?

 

The thing is,

When you mod a car you up the value to yourself, but ultimately decrease the value in other ways. The fact that this has 450whp is crazy, but if I was interested in buying this car I would like to know if the appropriate engine mods to support this were done. Were those included on your page? Was the SC professionally installed and maintained? I also can't see where you are from, maybe the brand isn't very popular in your area. The car sounds like it was put together well but you can't guarantee anything when buying used. People like me want full disclosure.

 

Yea I have receipts for the motor and everything. It was built to handle 650hp. I am from NJ which should be a good area but I got an offer for 13.5 and I am thinking of just taking it as I am getting no other interest.

 

It is totally up to you. Two bone stock G's with the greater miles sold in my area for 12 within the past month. I personally think you could get ~15 with your upgrades.

 

Modded cars don't sell as well. The consumer market for such a car is actually rather small. You might get lucky and find someone who just wants it, but most people tend to look at heavily modded cars and wonder if they are buying someone else's headache.

You will néed to prove that the car was professionally assembled and not by a backyard mechanic.

I hate to say it but sometimes you can get more money and have an easier time putting the car back to stock and selling the parts separate. You might be able to get $13.5 just for your car stock...and the make more selling the parts
