Thinking about selling my evo.

Im not 100% on this idea yet, but its been popping up in my mind. The main reason is that, frankly, I dont have a job. I picked up everything and moved to go back to school. I was hopin to find a job quick to keep up with the payments for the evo but for some reason its rough out here. Even to find something small. I have enough money saved up to make payments for several months. But should I wait that long to find out or should I just get rid of it now to save me the trouble if it comes to it?

Here is some stats on the car

2006 AS Evo IX SE
The car has 33,xxx miles on it
Its somewhat modded.
ETS intake
Muse LICP
Underhood shifter bushings.
Boost gauge
and ETS intercooler
I had a 3in AMS TBE on it but i swapped it for the stocker to get it smogged.

If you were in my position, would you sell it or keep it?
If sell it, how much do you think I could get?

I'd sell it given the position you are in. No sense going broke when it can be avoided at least for a little while longer.

How long have you been looking for job? If you can back up the payments for few more months, i will say don't rush.

If you are going to sell it, i prob will start from around 25k.

I've been looking for a job here for about a month. I can back the payments for about 3-4 months.. maybe longer if I stop buying things.

Did you try getting a loan? I'd sell it. I am sure you can get $15k out of it, but i don't see 23 at all.

If you want a car to go fast, you aren't going to over price it. For $15k it'll go within a day having 30k miles...
