I wanted to get everyone's opinion on wether I should spend the time and part this car out or just sell it as is.

Specifically what would be my pros and cons?

whats wrong with it ? and much do u asking as is ?

 

very nice car.
from experience, parting out then selling you tend to end up making more than selling as is.

 

Hes right... so here lets break it down the way u want it

Pro -- Potential the make more money
Cons
- TIME...take it off, finding stock parts
- Dealing with Forum ppl (no disrespect to others) but dealing with window shoppers, flakers, etc etc.
- Possibly a retune... if you don't have a shop near you, having to get it retuned remotely could cause some back log in waiting.

Your car is really nice and would be a great package deal for someone however depending on what amount in your mind you want... parting out maybe the way to go

 

Part out the high value and "easy to replace with stock parts" then sell the car as is. Unless the prospective buyer has been in the evo game for a while, most other buyers might be intimidated with a highly modded car for sale

 

Yeah, this is probably the route I'd go as well.

Either way, awesome car and good luck either way you go!

 

PS... if you are parting out, I will buy some stuff, just throwing it out there

 

 

Yea I found out the hard way that no one wants to pay for mods haha.

 

As in, coated by Enkei, ot some random pc shop..


Def part out the big/easy stuff. Injectors, turbo, trans, tcase, diff, intercooler, wheels/tires, COP, steering wheel (maybe) etc. Possibly even the engine..
