Default Engine Mods and the Value of resale

Hi,

I have a 1993 GS300 and a few years ago someone told me there was a following for the gs300 engine due to the exterior mods that can take the engine to 1000hsp.

I am not a car buff but I am looking to sell my car. it has 220000 miles and NO issues. It was the maintenance managers car at a lexus dealership before I owned it.

Is it worth perusing to sell it privately vs just trading it in?

Is there any information where i could find people interested in buying the car or if its even worth my time looking into it?

Thank you!

Exterior mods that make can take the engine to 1000hp? Just think about that, even if you are not a car buff. The motor is standard and is not the desired 2jzgte. Trade in I am sure will be under $2,000. Sell private and maybe get a bit more.

For every bottle, there's a cap. You'll need to find the cap for your bottle.

You were told wrong. These cars are dirt cheap all day long.
