Help me know how much my mustang is worth!!!!

[timbraden33]

Hi, i'm new to the forums and I just got back from Iraq. I got my 06 mustang v6 new from the factory, then had ford put on all the mods i'll list below.
My wife is about to have a baby so I need to let it go... I'm just wondering what I should start asking for it.

Mods:
Stock 4.0l V6
Magnuson M90 Supercharger and intercooler w/10 PSI Boost Pulley
8.8 Ford Racing Rear Axle w/ 3.73 Limited Slip Diff
Shaftmaster 4" Aluminum Drive shaft
Steeda Upper and Lower Control Arms
Eibach Springs and Suspension
BMR Panhard Rear Swaybars
Screamin Demon Coil Package
39 PSI Injectors
Silverhorse Racing 18" Racing Wheels w/ 4.0l badge
Nitto NT555 Tires (less then 5000 miles on them)
8K HID Headlights with transferable lifetime warranty
Sequential Taillights
Pro-Comp Boost Gauge
Borla Exhaust
Hawk Performance Brakes (drilled and slotted)
Line Lock

Comp White with Red strips 46000 miles red leather interior, Automatic transmission.

Like I said all the mods were done by a Ford dealership, and I have all the documentation for the work. It also runs a 11.47 1/4 mile and smokes any V8 I've ever raced.

Please guys, help a US Marine out and get back to me fast with what you think would be a reasonable asking price. I can also tell you that after the base price of the car, the package from Ford was 22k.

Thanks guys. Post back here or just email me at [email protected]
Email is preferred.

To most folks (and businesses), the car is only worth what the local market dictates using reference info from NADA & KBB for a stock '06 V6. You have an impressive list of modifications, and while that may attract some buyers, it will distract many others ... regardless who installed them. When I go car shopping, I seek out unmolested examples, and steer away from modified units. You may have some good luck and locate a buyer who wants everything you've installed, and I hope you do.

You're getting 11.47 timeslips out of the older V6 with a blower and basic suspension mods?

It is sad but true that the value of your car is not positively affected by the modifications.
Some people, in fact, would be scared of the modifications because they would think the car has been driven fast and hard.
You will be lucky in my experience to get the book value. It has been my experience to never invest much in modifications unless you plan to keep the car.
I have a 2010 Mustang that I have done little to. I also have a 1966 Mustang convertible that I have owned for years. I bought a 1949 Ford F1 in July which I have been rebuilding. The mechanicals of the truck are almost finished. Body work will take years. I can likely only get the money back for my convertible and then only because I have owned it for 25 years and bought it when prices were relatively low.
My truck is a money pit. I only bought it because it once belonged to my Dad. (Sentiment can be expensive. I would never sell the truck, so I know I will never get my money back). My 2010 also would be a money pit if I modified it.
Sorry for the long post, my simple point is that you are not going to get the money back from your mods. Just hope the mods don't scare off buyers.
Also, thanks for your service.

I'm sorry. You paid almost double for your car. Hopefully you can find someone interested in it for what it's worth, but more than likely, it needs to be an example of what not to do.

you'd be lucky to get what nada.com says your car is worth....I wouldn't buy it because I would assume that it was beat up on the track
