What do you consider is worth 8 grand anymore? Thats the issue SOME people think I have all these parts and that part and my car which is worth 2000 is now worth 10. I went to the OKI auction ( dealer auction ) in CINCI. and cars that were modded, boosted, lowered, slamed werent selling past 1500 example. 2000 civic. 60k miles. TW, 18"s, lowered, body drop, custom system, touch dvd, custom paint, engine mods blah blah. 1200 bucks.. a 2000 Camaro Z28 less than 80k 6sp TTtops all the options perfect condition 800 bucks... Some wouldn't even sell. So I mean hell if you know a dealer you might as well go to one of their auctions. I love mautofied but when people want 5000 for a 89 240sx that has 200k on it thats been ragged out. Theres no use in wasting time, and dont get me started with people who tell you "Yours is worthless than mine" especially when THEY dont even have a title. It basicly comes down to greed, all of these kiddies think cause they put a little money into their import that makes it worth more, So they ask god awful prices.. So yea it doesnt matter if you paint your car change the motor etc etc guess what your car is still only worth what it books. And now a days thats the bottom dollar amount.. And if you want to stop those offers put a amount instead of $1 possible trade.. And be more easy on calling other peoples rides junk. What may be junk to you might not be to them especially if they put their time into it to try to make it look like something.. like this here
