I went through the same thing when I sold mine, no one pays for mods and even if it is super clean, as mine was also, it still has 50k on the odometer. I got frustrated after a couple months and ended up parting out and trading it in, which was advantageous because of sales tax. There's probably some nice 135/335's at dealers that you might be able to deal on. Just a suggestion from my experience and good luck with the sale.

Actually if you look at the resale value a clean 2006 STI the book value's at $22k with 50k miles. On the flip side a 2008 135i with 50k miles value's at $24k. He's not too far off but finding a 335/135 with that high of mileage might be an issue. Subaru's hold their value well, but you are right about the mods ... no one cares. Getting someone to trade their 135i .... well ... best of luck .. we love our cars
