What is my car worth -- need some suggestions...
Sunday, March 12, 2006 10:46 AM
Dear JBody enthusiasts,

I have a 2004 Cavalier LS Sport Coupe 2 door, 5-speed manual transmission - I am considering selling it. Currently, I have a job that affords me the benefit of a company vehicle (completely paid for, gas + insurance). Essentially, my Cavalier has become a garage queen. It has 28000 miles, clean title, no collisions, and excellent paint (black, waxed twice per year).

The hood has a few paint chips fron rocks, and there is a very small ding in the drivers quarter panel.

As for options, the body & suspension (struts/springs) are completely stock. However, over the past two years I put of number of upgrades into it:

17" ASA EM9 wheels (17x7) with new General Exclaim UHP tires (less than 1000mi wear)
Baer 12" rear disc conversion
Wilwood front big brake upgrade (2-pc rotors, dynapro calipers)
Greasable ball joints
RKSport rear sway bar
Polyurethane control arm bushings
B&M short-throw shifter
RKSport polished aluminim intake
Custom 2.5" exhaust (compression bent) with Magnaflow hi-flow cat, Magnaflow resonator, & Magnaflow muffler with 4" stainless Magnaflow tip

The interior is pristine, no tears or stains, and the oil has been changed every 3000mi with Mobil1 synthetic 5w-30. The car has never been raced at a track (autocross or drag), and I have never "beat" on it. I have taken impeccable care of this vehicle, and I must admit that I am sad to see it go.

I have a student loan from college, and I would rather take the funds from this car and pay my student loan. If I let the car sit in my garage, it will simply depreciate.

Considering what I have just mentioned, what do you think this car would relaistically sell for on the open market?

Thank you for your time and input!

Sincerely,
illtmprdman

Mods are worth nothing, best to part those out and get what you can.
