Hey guys, I hope is doesn't breach any rules but I was wondering what price I should be expecting when I sell my car.

Please Note this is not a for sale add as I don't want to breach any rules.

It's a 09 pmr es lancer sports back with 28,000km currently.
It's manual and has 18"wheels, pioneer double din head unit with speakers and amp.

It also has the leather pmr interior with custom seats and pmr bodykit all round.

Rebook values stock lancers at $13-15,000 for one with 30,000-50,000 km

Pics are here to help you judge:

the sale of modded cars is always a hard one - usually when modded (beyond the rims etc), people often think 'thrashed' and often a stock one is worth the same. however, you will get someone who is more interested in it because it has been modded, but usually the sell time is a lot longer.

one thing i've found, is that you never get your money back on mods

yours is a rocking ride which has been tastefully done with more of a focus on aesthetics, so hopefully you'll get someone who appreciates the effort and will pay a price premium on it.

good luck!

i think you will have better luck selling it because its a "Dealer Special"

But maybe have a chat with Nick, he should be able to give you a better price on what it should sell for. i mean he does do it for a job

Before you sell it, swap the front leather seats with my cloth ones plz :)

Yours is basically a dealer delivery special
all you have is seats and stereo with rims.

You should get about $17,00 because of the leather seats in it, wheels dont mean anything anymore when you sell cars, especially because the price of rims has dropped so much, you would be better of putting stock wheels on it if you still have them, try sell the wheels separate for a bit of extra quid.

Your dials seem to look different. Not sure if it's the flash or they're actually modded.
