I can tell you right now that although you got a sick looking ride, it will be hard to sell. Not everyone has the same taste as we do, and as a result it will be very difficult to find a buyer. I suggest putting the car back to stock as much as possible and individually selling any aftermarket parts you took off.

I can tell u a true story...i have a 2001 4 drs dx..it only have 9xxxx kms on it..and i put a lots of mods into it..header (DC) back exhaust (real spoon exhaust from RSX), AEM version 2 intake, AEM pulleys, neuspeed race springs, koni yellow, neuspeed front upper strut bar, dc rear lower tie bar, obx rear upper strut bar, momo team steering wheels (280 mm the smallest u can find), skunk 2 short shifter with spoon shift ****, JSP carbon fiber hood with sparco hood pin, mugen front lip, jdm rs side skirts, oem rear lip, 6000k hid and auto to manual swap, 15" tenzo r rims (black with red lip...it's mugen copy) with falken 615 tires..and my point is i only get $5500 for the whole car...so if i was u i will keep the car...the reason why i didn't keep my car was i track it a lots and i always drive hard...always rev the car to the max rpm...

btw: i was looking at a brand new, gunmetal grey 2008 mazdaspeed 3 (265hp, turbo). according to the salesman it's the fastest production FWD car on earth, they already got the 2009's in so i guess they are trying to get rid of the '08s.

im not sure if the mazdaspeed3 is the fastest production fwd car. I would have thought the new cobalt turbo (260hp) or the old srt-4 with stage 3 factory upgrade (300hp), or hmm i think im missin a big one well the new calibre srt4 is pretty effin fast too.

i agree. i went to a mazda dealership last night and talked to a salesman and he and the manager checked out my car and told me they could offer me $5000 for my ride bone stock, meaning i should remove all mods. i originally asked for $13,500 for the car as is. i left the dealership thinking that i would probably try and sell it privately or just keep my car and later that evening the salesman called me and told me that he spoke with his manager and they came to an offer of $9,000 on a trade and to come in and he could work out the deal. i'm still trying to decide whether to go with this or not.
Part out the mods though, sell me your side skirts.
