Im my experience of selling custom modified cars, its only targeted to a special group of buyers. You never know, someone might actually buy the car at $50k. I use to have an IS300, which was fully modded with wheeks, kit, interior, and sound system. I sold it for about $9k above KBB price, and sold it within 3 months. Your best bet, try listing it at autotrader.com and also Ebay. Ebay is great for selling cars like these. Good luck with the sale.

btw I'm leaving the country this saturday for 3 months..
i'll pm you when i come back..
btw my evo is running 390+whp on 91 oct and 470whp on 100 oct..
soo let's get that on tape!
that evo you're talking about is making 270-280whp max
he wouldn't pull on you of course..
stock evo is only fast on 1st-2nd gear.. 3rd gear onwards slow as a mazda..

why not save the money and buy my car..
its much faster, stops better, sounds better and looks much meaner than stock 350..

btw,
clk55 209's make around 300-310 at the wheels stock. mine might be in the 315-320 range, if im lucky.
take care
