What should I sell my CLS63 exhaust for? Or is it even worth it?

That being said, if its only going to fetch me a couple hundred $$, then much rather keep the stocks. As always Vic, your help and insight is always appreciated and welcomed! Now, get rid of your M5 and come back to the one true following.

Yeah that is probably the stronger of the two inclinations. The only problem is, as I think you can sympathize, is that people like HREs and Brabus, etc....but dont necessarily want to pay for them, even at reasonable, used prices. Also, if by the time I get rid of my car (oh lord, please let me keep this one for a while)...if they change the body type, it may decrease the value even further for both the Brabus and/or the stock system. So, is money in hand now, better than money (possibly less) in hand later -- not to mention finding somewhere convenient to store these bad boys.

Ill bet you will be done with the CLS in less than 10-12 months.

I agree with Vic, switch the car back to stock when you sell. From my experience mods rarely add value to a car. Plus I might be a newbie here but I don't see a bunch of pre owned exhausts, wheels, etc. I would think that items with a strong brand name would sell reasonable fast.

After that, I got my diffuser cut by a body shop for $60. I added a CF diffuser, turned out awesome. Chappy, BI, and some others on this forum saw the finished mod and were impressed.

M5
Regarding resale, I have no experience with the MB brand, but over 2 monthes I got few nibbles on my highly moded M5, so I took it bac to stock and it sold it in 2 weeks. It was more work, but the market spoke, and mission accomplished.....now time to find the right CLS63!
