What value would you put on this car if it was in the US?

I'm exploring the possibilities of selling my car and I have placed what I believe is a reasonable value for it in the UK, but I was wondering what you guys in the US would put on a car of this specification?

That's a bloody good question. I know for a fact that a semi VIP 161 with HKS turbo setup seems to be a bloody hard sell for 17K€ in Finland...

But in the US I'd suspect your cars street value being around 20-30K$... Even if it's all rego'ed and taxed. And for a quick sell, it's most likely around the 20K mark. You NEWER get what you poured on it... Tbh :/

Yeah, you never get back what you spend, but it seems that the US values modifications and custom work a bit more than the EU.

I was thinking of sticking mine up here in the UK (where it would most likely go to Scandinavia, due to the ridiculous import taxes!) for £20k GBP (about $35k)

I just wanted to see if that seemed like a realistic valuation for the across the pond :)

20-25k. heavily modified cars rarely catch what they're worth in parts. if you listed it stateside for 25k i think you'd sit on it for at lest 6 months with a lot of bs offers and lowballs until you finally get fed up and start parting out and lowering the price. seems to happen to most of the heavily modified cars i see.
