And I need to get it ready to sell. What all should I do?

Here's my basic list:

- New 12v battery
- Oil/trans/coolant/rearend fluid changes
- Not sure about the tires, but possibly new set since the current ones are probably flat spotted

Am I missing anything? Air filter is a K&N so I'm not changing that. The car will be re registered and smogged just prior to sale.

What is a 2000 V6 auto with 115k miles worth? It has the following mods:

- Eibach Pro-kit with camber bolts
- Bilstein Sport S/S from MM, pre threaded for coilovers
- Kenny Brown weld-in SFCs
- Bullitt sway bars F/R
- Bullitt front brakes, Rotorpros slotted rotors front and rear
- 95 Cobra wheels with BFG 275/40/17 SuperSport A/S, about 60% tread, but they've been sitting for almost 2 years
- 1" spacers in back, rear fenders rolled
- rear seat delete with custom built 2 12" subwoofers in an Infinite Baffle, baskets custom painted Laser Red to match the car
- custom fiber glassed A-pillars with Vifa XT25 tweeters, vinyl wrapped to match interior
- 6.5" Vifa/Peerless HDS mids in stock location, dynamat on the doors
- JVC head unit with iPod control, fully active crossovers (tweeters and mids are ran independently)
- JL Audion A6450 amp running the whole system
- black carpet dash mat from CJ Pony Parts
- 55w 5000k Bi-Xenon HIDs, lamin-x yellow tint on headlights
- black out vinyl on deck lid, Escape V6 emblem
- 2003 GT rear bumper, painted to match
- Mach 1 grille delete and chin spoiler
- 20% tint on rear 1/4 and rear window, 20% strip on front windshield
- 2.5" custom dual cat back exhaust with Force mufflers, no crossover pipe (divorced dual)
- JBA shorty headers
- TruFiber 95 Cobra R hood, painted black

I think that's it. I was hoping to get $4k for it. Is that fair? I also have a set of Mach 1 C-pillars and 1/4 glass that I'd let go with the car, but only after I make sure I buy my buddy's 03 GT. These items are very hard to find and I paid $400 for the set.

If your coolant still looks alright I wouldnt bother changing it same with the trans fluid. Are your tires flat spotted from sitting. If so I would pump them up and drive on them for a while. the flat spots may go away.

I think you can get $4000, the car does have some tasteful appearance mods, lowered wheels, hood. So there are people out there that care much more about that than whats under the hood. Post pictures of the car. Would really help to see exactly.


Just ran KBB for your car and in my area lists a stock '00 V6 car with 115k miles anywhere from 3900-4900. I think with the mods you have you could get closer or even 5k.

I need to clean it up first. It's been under a microfiber car cover but it's dusty. I'd be happy with $4k. I'd love 5, but in my heart I don't think it's worth 5. I'd prob list it on CL for 5 and let someone talk me down to 4 haha.

I actually would add air to them every few months, so they may not be that bad. The coolant and trans were actually just flushed not too long before it was non-op, so they might be good too. I just remembered rearend was done at about 80k too. So hmm maybe just oil change and new battery? I know the fuel filter was done at about 60k as well. What about the gas in the tank? I put in a full tank before it wasn't driven anymore, to minimize moisture in the lines. Should I drain it? Or run it through.

I would be afraid of the gas being bad after two years. open the cap and giver a wiff. if it smells like gas it may be ok. Put some of that water dry crap in there if it still smells like gas and see how it runs.
