What's it worth? 2002 SVT focus.

Miller · Wed May 18, 2011 7:09 pm

Pitch black 2002 svt with blue insert interior. Aftermarket shift knob (the new mustang one with a blue svt logo in it). 65xxx miles (if i remember right). Carbon fiber hood (oem style). Stock 5 spoke svt rims in excellent condition with newer dunlop sportmaxx tt tires. Fat sixes with winterforces that are also almost brand new. Newer clutch (about a year old) luk kit. Almost brand new torsen LSD. New power steering line. 1 yr old plugs and wires. Steeda chomoly strut tower bar. Custom exhaust using a borla muffler and center exit tip (no middle resonator). Kona roof rack with a YAKIMA windscreen. If it comes with stereo it would be a MTX 8" with a rockford sub capable of much more than that sub and a pioneer deck. Also has 3000k HID foglights with the foglight mod I just put in this week.

I'm sure I'm forgetting some but the car is in excellent condition.

Not really sure if I want to sell it but I think I'm ready for something different. I know what I owe on it and am in no hurry, at this point just seeing what y'all think it's worth in the local market, I know I'd get low balled on national forums.

6500 in good, 7 in excellent. I wouldn't call it excellent but I have a lot of money in mods. I forgot to add it has a tune as well. Those are things not taken into account and I realize they don't add much value.

Mods don't add virtually any value sadly....

I'm aware, but I'm not even sure that this thing would fetch 7k

Mods may actually make the car more difficult to sell. Because then you are selling to a smaller group of people (enthusiast) rather then just the general population, and even then, lots of people don't like to buy other peoples projects.

7k is a good price

Miller · Thu May 19, 2011 10:16 am

I agree about the mods portion, that's why I've never gone too crazy with anything. But I understand it's harder to find someone who wants all the same stuff I did. It's a fun car, and I'm debating just keeping it and passing it down to my little brother when he turns 16 or graduates hs, not sure which. It's a cali car that has only seen one winter.

I have just seen so many go for so cheap lately, it's hard to pull a premium, even with the low miles.

I'll give you $100!

See, you can get lowballed on local forums too!

Sadly, my 02 is going back to stock exactly for this reason. once its sold I'll sell all the performance parts.
I have well over 8k into the car and every kid thinks they can lowball and get it all for free. I can easily recoup a bunch of money this way after selling the car.
one kid offered me 7k for the car. he got pissed when I said ok for the car but the performance parts are coming off....

Are you maybe going to go back to stock with yours too?

Miller · Sat Jun 18, 2011 4:56 pm

No, not at all. For what it would really sell for I can't afford to sell it. Especially when I can't buy another fun DD with such low mileage for the same price.

So you want some se gold Imolas then, right?

They won't lose their value. I got the one set, and won't see any more, if at all until next spring.

I wish, just bought a GoPro which was pretty damn spendy. I so badly want those Imola's it's not even funny. Maybe in the Fall... Dunno.
