The dealers don't give a damn what you do to your car and the price they offer you will be the same as the same car without the mods. Collectors and car enthusiasts also don't care because they prefer to by the cars with as much original components as possible. They may want to do their own mods, but each wants to do it "his way".
Anyway congrats on your car. Let's race.  |
Very nice car. I wouldn't mess with it right now either... but my car is 7 years old, worth shit on trade in so it's worth WAY more on the private market with a bunch of extras, especially with the mileage.
It's weird how it works but your 426hp will probably net you a mid-bottom 12 second run on a tire, mine will probably run in the mid 11s with the same tire @ around 119 MPH. It's probably the weight difference or the aggressive nature of the cam... but I would definitely take you up on that race ;) It wouldn't be pretty.
I'd trade you cars any day though. I would much rather have a newer car over this hunk of shit haha.
