Well i was trying to get outa it quick and had Walser buy it off me for 13k might have been able to get 14-15 but at this time of the year it woulda been hard i think.

 

You sold it to Walser? You didn't trade it in on something else?

 

Well, that's way more reasonable for yours than them offering 14K for mine with only 5,000 miles on a new motor AND with my 20" wheels/bodykit as well as an extended warranty still good for 50,000 more miles. I have an 06 6mt sport too

 

Nah i didnt trade it on something else they will buy any car off any one for what they would give u on trade. and yeah i got lucky kinda most places were offering me 11-12! and i owed 13500 so 13 was not that bad. i still have my blazer to drive around till i pay off debts and think of something new for next summer or so all depending on funds and such. thats pretty low for your car! im sure u could sell for 15-16 but it will sit on the market. As much as we love our cars not every one wants to buy one, its like RX-8s and other "exotic" cars, many like the looks but not many wana own.

 

They told me they'd price it at 18K on the lot so they'd only buy it for 14K....but yeah the G's don't hold their value like they used to-but that goes for pretty much all cars now. I even saw an RX8 for 8K now. I figure my car will be paid off in 2.5 years and I'll probably still get 8K-9K then which is better than getting basically what what I owe now and walking away with nothing.

 

dang that really sux, but i hear ya all around man its hard to find a car that does hold its value.

 

I saw a member on here (I think from Cali) sell his documented and professionally installed twin turbo setup coupe for like 18K on a best offer I knew if a 500HP G35 could only get 18K, I sure as heck can forget about getting anything near the 24K I could have gotten for this car this time last year. Had I known these cars were going to fall in price this fast, I would have definitely sold mine last year.

 

I just tackled the task of opening up my headlamps and painting the housings black, I'll have pictures up tmr I think it looks SICKKKKK .

 

Cant wait to see it!

 

^Same! Fanyan, maybe you can help me paint mine?

 

Just finishing up putting the bumper/grille back together onto the car, gotta head to my girlfriends parents place to pick up her camera and I'll have some pix by later tonight

Yeah Josh I can help ya man it definitely takes time if you want to do it right but I'm very happy with the end results, took me a total of like 3-4 hours so it wasn't too bad.

 

^ja bake them and everything.

I'll give you mad props if you don't get any condensation in 'em Fanyan. On my Cavalier back in the day I mounted Lexus projectors in black headlights and it was a biiiiiiitch. I guess that's a little more of a modification, but sealing them is key to keeping ANY condensation building up. If you see ANY, open it back up and let it dry out ASAP so it doesn't corrode or mold.

Can't wait to see it man. I know you do stuff up right so I have faith.

 

I tried my best to use a good amount of sealant and to still keep it looking OEM, I did a few sets in the past and yes I use the oven bake method haha I know what you mean about the condensation issue it happened in the past before to a few of my headlamps so if anything does start showing up I'll definitely reseal them.

 

We want Pics Fanyan!

 

WHAT PENG SAID!!!^^^ w/ the characters and all!! LMAO
