One little perk for the Lexus is that it uses SOME Toyota parts and therefore will be cheaper on repairs.

I would really look into an Infinite though. If you look at most luxury cars the Infinite will be less on repairs.

Is that really you lol. I thought you had a pick up truck.



Anyways, +1 in the STi sedan!!

+1 STI Sedan for AWD sedan.

However, if luxury is what you're looking for, then the STI is not what you'd want, thanks to its cheap interior -.-

Both AWD on IS250 and C300 is a joke tho.

What year and mileage? Just compare to others on autotrader and see what they are asking. IMO you always do better selling it privately, you will get more for it.

auto trader list are 13-16 for stock.
also have winter and summer wheels
coilovers, control arms, sway bars, exhaust.

does that hurt me? as a trade they said it hurts the value??

Mods never add any value when you sell to a dealer. Sometimes they detract value because it makes it harder for them to sell.

You'll get more if you sell it private party to someone who values the mods.

if you still have the original parts, just unmod it. put it back to stock form, sell it to the dealer, and sell the aftermarket parts separately on ebay or something.

That.

Or, maybe you'll be lucky enough to find a dealer/sales that is willing to account for the modded parts too (A certain sales in T+C BMW did)

^ theres a site for selling modded cars. Its for people who want to sell their car as is and dont wanna return to stock. Ill try finding it and posting it here.
