Well I said 10kish thinking it was a stock 02 Blk/blk SD ..

i'm sure you could squeeze a little more out with those mods, but you really might be better off parting it out and then selling it. a little more stock.

what year is it a 05? sounds like alot to me for a early 01-03 GS

2nd gen GS prices have dropped dramatically IMO.

a lot of kids dont just have 15k laying around to buy a used car, and not many banks will lend a kid money for a used car over 4 years old, your best bet is to slowly take the wheels off, the grille off and all easy stuff and just get money that way, then unload the car for a solid 10k. which kids will have.

I'd say 10-12k for the car and part out all the optional parts you've put into it or leave as as an option. So let's say you price the car @ 15k and they decide I don't want this, but I want that. Then make your price adjustments. I honestly think you can get 15k for it. Plus it would be a great graduation gift from a parent to give to their kid!

Yeah, thats exactly what i was thinking. I wouldnt mind talking parts by parts out and replacing it with oem stuff so the price can be lower for the buyer. Thanks for the advice guys.

I'm thinking 12k stock is a lot for the mileage. I purchased my 02 GS3 with 78k for $12k cash almost a month ago.

i'd def sell rims separately you will get a lot more at least selling that.. other items are already on car not easy to take off without extra labor.. It's sport design..those are much more rare..and w/ 120k miles not so bad at all if condition is good w/o rims i'd ask 12,500 and take 11500 or so.. your rims you can sell on ebay and get what you wnat for them I'm sure machine finished rims are awesome.. not sure what those go for but I'm sure they are 2000 or more.. so that would get you around the 15k price. remember it'll most likely be cash deal so u gona have to wait on someone w/ cash as not too many if any at all will finance a car as old as 02 and with 120k miles.. i know that it's just getting broken in as mine has more miles then that and still drives like new.. Good luck w/ the sale and take that Mercedes grill off of there!!! lol
