Are modified ms3’s worth more….?

[kornerz]

I’m thinking about listing my ms3 for sale soon. I love the car but the back seat is a little too crammed for a baby seat. Y’all think it’s worth going through the hassle of turning it back to stock or just sell it as is with all the mods?

Get a Speed6 and re use whatever parts you have. The world needs more good six!

I probably won’t replace it with anything. I bought the ms3 to save miles on my 100 series, but you just can’t beat the comfy big suv feel lol

Probably worth telling us your mods and service history so we can actually make the judgment. In some cases yes modded cars are worth more others not. Also completely depends on what needs to be done to stock the car to register it... Some places require emissions testing as part of safety to transfer ownership

It’s 100% smog legal here in ca. It’s mostly suspension mods. Coilovers, sways, wheels and what not. It does have a Cobb ap and big intercooler tho

Wheels may be worth selling off perhaps the coils if you the OEMs in the good shape.

Selling accessport in married and intercooler too.

Yeah could be worth stocking your car. Assuming you have the stock parts. How much value does it l over over a stocker. Again without knowing exact brands and parts can't help there. I'm inclined to to say the only value over stock is the access port without knowing the setup but that's me

How do you figure the back seat is too small for a car seat? I have had two in my car for the last 8 years and never felt like it was too small

I’m 6’3”, I need all the room I can get up front. The current seat was a squeeze. The new baby seat is even bigger. Seems like baby seats keep getting bigger and bigger

Kw v3 coilovers (double adjustable fancy)

Camber plates front

Camber arms rear

Hotchkis front and rear sway bars

Ss braided brake lines

18x8 oz wheels

Racing beat exhaust

Cobb intake

Big top mount intercooler

Cobb access port

Touch screen stereo with amp and 2 10” alpine subs

4 point asm harness on drivers seat

It seem like as soon as you say modified people assume it has cheap eBay like mods and it becomes hard to sell. This one is tastefully modified with quality parts.

Buy a smaller baby seat we have the diono brand they are only front facing but not monstrous like other brands. I keep my seat all the way back so it still works.

Unless you have two in rear facing seats at the same time that would suck

No hpfp internals? Do the buyer a favor and stock out the performance mods... Your car is a ticking time bomb without it.
As for the suspension stuff by the pics looks like it's set functionally you can probably get some extra $ for leaving it in buy market it as "upgraded" which it is not "modified"

I need to do hpfp work with stock power? The tune is a reliability tune. Stock boost and all

I need rear facing

People have blown their engines form just putting an intake on, the stock TIP is quite restrictive and that extra air flow means the stock internals on the hpfp sometimes cannot keep up with just an intake alone.

So yes
