Re: price of car

Any car priced above and beyond the listed value due to 'modifications' can only be appraised by the potential buyer.

The seller can gold plate the engine and throw every creature comfort they want at it. Reality is, theyr'e only going to get what they're looking for if they find a buyer whos willing to pay it.

Re: price of car

Any time you run 110V accessories wiht a inverter off a 12V source, problems are abound.

Starting to sound like the price needs to come down.

Put a unbutchered stock wiring harness back in it and leave the video games at home.

Re: price of car

















I would say it should be more like 3500-4k at the most. I'm sure it's not in excellent condition as it is listed to be. And I agree, leave the video games at home.

Price sounds a little steep. And the lifetime warrenty on the tinting is probably not transferable.

Re: price of car

On a side note... the car might have more value because... even if it breaks down, he can just run a cord from the house and play ps2 all day....lol

I wouldnt pay over 5k though
