The market for an 2007 with your miles is between $120k-$125k at the most.
I think you are better of selling the aftermarket parts off your car and sell it as a stock car. You will make closer to what you want this way which I am sure you already sort of knew.
Good Luck!

The person who goes and buys the car stock would have go through weeks of shopping, nogotiating, and waiting for those items to be installed . Plus by the time he did the car would cost a lot more than 135K .
If that car is what it appears to be ...... it's a nice deal for the used car shopper. It's a beautiful car . Plus I agree with him about not parting out the car .
If you don't agree --I tell you what --go out and buy a stock 997tt and see how much fun you have : waiting for the parts , paying for installation, driving a loaner for days . paying retail for the aftermarket items ........
All to have some used car buyer tell you --that its worth less ? I think the original poster is being very polite but then again he has the car and person who wants it does NOT .

I see your points and agree with them but unfortunately those things do not seem to be translated well in the used car market.
I know because i just sold my car and I spent a ton of money on mods and did not get even 25% of its original value.
Good luck with the sale anyway. I would keep the car if i was the owner.

The real test is to go out and drive a stock 997tt .
Then drive a well modified one .
It's really a huge gap and perhaps some wont care but if your heart is set on having a car which is more unique and special --something which drives faster, is more balanced , and has quality customizations --this is the used car smorgashboard of guys ( and a few women too) who have taken so much time to configure a dream machine .
Perhaps I take some this to heart as I have spent so much time to make my car something so cherished that I would hope that the day I sell it someone would notice . It looks like he did the same for his .

I think at the end of the day, it really drills down to personal preference on what type of condition they wish to purchase a turbo. Theres a market for someone who wants a pure raw car but then there are others who look for a well prepped one with the parts that they would purchase at a later stage. Honestly, I spent a lot of $ and time with these mods as hours spent ordering, receiving, planning, installing, and scheduling appointments are priceless. I would like to get as close to my offering or simply I will keep the car. Cheers
