Thoughts on sale of car

Hi all just wanting to get some thoughts on selling my car.

VO 1M 44k on clock full akra Evolve FMIC and AFE CAI stage 3 tune, Auto Art 3piece rims custom painted Awron guage.

I love this thing but i think its time to move on. Wondering as i have original airbox, fmic and p3 gauge should i part these out or sell as is.

I know when i bought it was easier to have everything already there instead of buying separately.

About to get serviced and health checked and detailed to start advertising.

Part it out, I don't think most people in the market for a 1M would want a pre modded one. Lot of people would be interested in the parts though

Only thing I can't part out would be the Exhaust and Wheels as I do not have originals.

Not necessarily. My friend with a 1M wanted to buy an Akra off a guy who didn't have the original exhaust. They both came to my place and did a straight swap. Would be plenty of people interested.

359 wheels don't come up often so you're probably stuck with them unless you find someone who wants to do a swap.

I spose as there is no wiring needed for the akra just would have to replace from downpipes all the way out, oh forgot i have the tial bov and charge pipe as well. But have original downpipe also

I think parting it out is the best way to go. I agree that most people will probably be looking for a stock car rather than modified. Your modifications are quality and you shouldn't have too much effort selling them separately which will net you a bit of extra cash.

I would personally return it to stock but then mention that you have the modifications with it and say you can negotiate them into the price if the buyer wants them. That way it adds incentive for them to buy yours. If they're wanting a modified car, they get only the modifications they want and none that they don't. It also gives you a bit more leverage as a seller because if they express interest in the modifications, you know you have something they want that is unique to your car and they won't get included if they go and buy a different 1M.

Hey mate thanks for the advice gives me something to think about. I think the only part they may be a problem is the Full Akra haha as said before doing a swap might work but may have to sell with it already on as paying for a full oem and fitting may be a pain. I will get the car looked over this week and go from there.

Anyone wanting a full akra wireless kit with cf tips to swap for oem plus dosh hit me up hahahaha.
