As to the value, that is valued as what someone is willing to pay you.

If I had 20 grand, well thats the deliema here no one is going to have that kind of cash.

This will be a tough one with the economy in the state that is in.

[military mase]

Well i should say how much do you think i can get for it

[A18A]

i can only see about 5 grand max

[2oodoor]

First and foremost kudos on a really nice custom Accord

resell value, I would guess yes between 3000 and 5000. Towards the higher number if you can produce documentation like reciepts, awards, tropheys, etc.. It would also have to be a practical daily driver.
Thing is too, these Hondas are selling alot higher than they were this time last year. A stock Lxi in DD condtion, everything working, is bringing around 2-3 grand now.

If it had an interesting and well executed swap, I could see it bringing in more because it would be in another class, not that there is anything wrong with the A20 but you know what the popular drivetrain is.
no offense, just my opinion based on what I see on the market

[military mase]

This is why i am thinking about selling it and build my other corolla. It seems the investment ratio is better than my accord. I amd realist and know i won't even get half of what i put in to it. As it is a daily driver and runs smooth it's sits at a show comptemplating on if i should even continue with the rest of the project. I could easily build up the rolla drop a 20v black top and when ever i feel like drop a turbo kit on it and i can buy parts for it right off the shelf. Well i'll give this thread a few months and if i still feel the same i'll put it up for sale. I don't want to regret selling my project.

[Rendon LX-i]

Man dont do it your going to regret it i remember the days u were always online showing what you did....Shit just keep it in storage if u dont want to mess with it....I have a 06 Scion tc ONE time i was like i should sell it and get a nice turbo kit cuz scions love boost but then i look at it im like HELL NOO. the heart and soul you put into it You and i Know Who ever gets it is not going to treat it the same way you did Why cuz u build it and put that extra time to make it look and run fast.....I wouldnt bro...Your car is Sick as hell...hope i changed your mind lol jp.....Do what you wish but i wouldnt man honestly....my o2cent

if i can sell my 5th g accord i'd buy it quick.hell i'd drive to you to get it that thing is sweet!
i had talked to someone in fayetteville about a month ago selling a 3g for 350 that needed a motor on craigslist, funny thing is she posted in the fayetteville arkansas section.We went to meet at walmart and about 5 min.s of "where are you again?next to the gas station right?" we figured out we where in different states.

[2oodoor]

that is hilarious, I can see that happening, walmarts everywhere.

[military mase]

Well i know for a fact that the lambo doors are coming off....They were good while it lasted but as i found out lambo doors are a pain. It's back to stock. Like i said i'll make sure to post on here to give guys a chance to buy it first. It's hard times for everyone and i'm a car junkie and i really can't support my habit with trying to work on 4 cars. i'm going to give it till oct. If things go well i'll keep it but if it goes south i'm gonna have to give up the 3G. My corolla retains more value that the 3rd gen so i'm looking at all options. Not looking forward to selling it but if i do i hope it does go to a good home.

[military mase]

So hard times have hit and it's time to face the fact that i have 2 many projects, 4 to be exact. I can't fund all of them and i have to sell the 3g. As of right now i have seen it run but the legs on the dizzy need to be welded back on. I want to let the 3g community to have a chance of buying it before i branch out to other sites. i'm selling this for 4,500 bucks. When i say i have all the reciepts on this from where i bouught stuf for this car i have them all and i dare not add up the price on it or i'll cry. So to leave it at that it is up for sale and i will have to sell sum of my turbo parts to get the dizzy welded and then it will be up in the trading post section. Thx

[ghettogeddy]

[military mase]

[ghettogeddy]

[Civic Accord Honda]
