Should I sell?

Hey guys, a guy from Chicago has offered me $30000 for my IX SE(TB), it has 2600 miles on it. AMS tuned, AMS TBE, AMS LICP & Intercooler, boost controller, filter, tint, alarm, Bel sti radar, swift springs, engine dampener, radiator diversion panel, Defi oil temp, pressure andboost gauges, and a Pioneer 7800 head unit. And some other minor accessories.


It seems like a lot, but wasn't planning on selling, what do you guys think?

I wouldn't.

I didn't buy the Evo as an investment, I bought it because I love the car. You'd have to offer me way over it's value for me to even give it a passing thought.

Don't really care for the X's so I wouldn't get another Evo. I was looking at Audi S5's or M3's for awhile. Audi is nice because I have to deal with snow. Different for sure but loaded nonetheless. I obviously don't drive mine much, it's a summer car only, so I dont want to lose out on a possibly good deal.

FYI, audis have many problems with their interior parts which is PITA after they are combined with VW. my boy has rs4, and my girl has an a4 2.0t. I dunno about s5 though.

dont do it man, your already going to lose money and time from the mods, plus, like someone else said, there not going to make them again. we bought the cars to enjoy, not to appreciate in value. esp if you dont like the evo X. ive had a modded audi, and my buddy has the m3. if you want an investment, buy an old muscle car or go to wallstreet...and keep the evo regardless.
