The prob is the more mods u do the more u want for it, but a buyer doesnt want to fork out more than a grand odd just to get the mods.
Depends how much your lookin for?
The more modded the harder it is to sell.

If I was in the market for a really nice EB-ED Ghia i'd be willing to pay between 7-8k.

There is a nice one in the sale section on here for 7k. It doesn't come with wheels or sterio or XR front though.

Without really seeing the car in person, i'd say you'd be doing extremely well to get close to 10k. Nothing against the car, its very nice but, people are willing to pay for a modified car, just not a huge amount.
My reason would be, that you get some extra's with a modified car that cost you less than if you did them yourself, but you don't get the pride in modifying it yourself, or being able to do it your own way. Plus a lot of modified cars have had the shit flogged out of them.

5-6k tops. Still an EB mate and mods usually don't attract a premium. No offence.

Luke have you seen this car in person? You won't find an EB in much better condition, and if you did I very much doubt it would have a price tag under 6k.

if you put it up forsale for 6k, I'd buy it tonight. lol :lol:

Yea i have to agree here i think its worth more then $6k.... all the advice i can give you is mate set a price you want and hold on to it till you get it.. not many thought i could get $10,000 for my el but when the right buyer came up who was after a modded EL he was happy to pay it without hassling me on price.

It's all good wanting top dollar for cars that people sell. It obviously up to the seller about setting their price. Some people will always think its too high, and others may think its fine. But i hate it when people expect top dollar (almost to recoup everything they've spent on the car) and they're clearly never going to sell it for anywhere near their asking price.
As with everything though, there are people willing to pay a certain amount for a certain thing.

id say just advertise it in carsales/trading post for $9,000ono, you will find people willing to pay that amount.
Its way better than my EB and ive had a few people interested in it for $5,500. I really dont want to get rid of it but im being forced to sell it so i just keep making excuses not to sell it.

I actually don't think he's wanting to sell the car. The first post was 'if' i was to sell it, how much would i get.
He's either testing the waters, or asking for some reason un beknown to us.

Mate, no I haven't. It looks nice in photos and I'm sure it looks better in real life. I'm not saying that it's not in pristine condition etc etc but it's still an EB that's been modified.

Good luck to you, and if you can net yourself $9k snap it up without hesitation.
