I have no idea. I think you might be able to get MSRP for it at this point due to the upgrades. Maybe even more since the 05 is hard to find especially if you find someone that is into all the upgrades that you have done.

I have no idea either, How much did you spend on all the upgrades? I know a couple of guys who have sold their stock 05's for around MSRP. Advertise how much everything was and then you can request a decent price.

My loaded Vert was only 32,700. Did you mean 29,120? You might try ebay to sell it... detailing all the mods and the cost of them... setting a reserve price for oh whatever the lowest is you'll take for it.

Okay, I'll give you a buzz. I finally got my stripes done!
Also, if I hear anyone looking pass the word on your car. I know my brother in law would love to buy it. He bought a V6 and is kicking his butt now. I know he can't swing it though. :nono: But I always have people asking about my car.

The downside to the upgrades is that you now have a new car with 1700 miles on it with no warranty coverage. I think that even getting MSRP for the car might be tough. Still, if you send all of the supercharger stuff to me and return your car to stock...

Sorry to hear about your problems 
You might be able to get around sticker with the SC on there, but you're greatly limiting your potential customers. Take the SC off and leave the suspension and exhaust upgrades, and you might be able to get MORE for it than with the SC. But you really never know, you might hit a buyer that's looking for this exact setup and is willing to pay well for it. If you're not in a hurry, I'd stick it on eBay as-is and see what happens. If it doesn't get what you want, pull the SC and sell the 'stang and SC separately.

Actually the best thing to do in your case would be remove as much of the upgrades as you can and sell them off and sell the car on it's own. Maybe you can keep the waranty on the car this way. Good Luck!!!

I would try and sell it on eBay for a pretty healthy reserve. If it doesn't work, then part it out.
No sense in going through all that effort if you can sell it as-is for a good amount.
With the red/red color comb and being boosted will definitely reduce your audience, but you might strike a cord with someone out there.

For some reason people who mod their cars think it adds value when the truth is it's exactly the opposite and it narrowly limits the buyers to those who are looking for something like that. Part it out, take a bath on the mods and the car and just hope that the health situation gets better. That's worth a whole lot more than any car in the world. Good luck.
