Want the best resale value? Take off your mods. Replace with stock parts. Sell car as “clean”. Sell mods later. Theres a guy selling a lambo door, full carbon body panel supercharged SCION TC for 40k near me and it’s laughable. Dude won’t even get 10k for it 😂

Just need to realize that you will NOT recoup any of the money spent on the mods if you go to resell it and will probably even take a loss versus if those mods were not there. Then again, if they are internal, you don't even need to report them to the potential buyer.........
@@Zympt No I didn't. The person is just saying they are modifying the car internally to the point it is a huge investment. That doesn't mean you can't move on later and take the loss on all that money invested.
The inverse of the tire thing is true too though, put new tires with good tread on your car and that's a selling point! Non car people will appreciate the convenience of not needing to get new tires, so you can add the cost of tires to your asking price and sell the car quicker. Bonus points if the car also comes with a full set of winter tires on steelies in addition to the new regular tires.
Where I live, underglow and any other non-required lights are actually illegal to have activated while driving on public roads, so they are purely for showing off when you are not on the road.
Bald tires suggest a lack of maintenance care, sure if you're moding your car you're probably also maintaining it properly dor the most part, but bald tires are very visible not maintained components which is a concern.
I mean tires aren’t cheap. I stay up to date on maintenance but during the summer I’m getting my monies worth out of them tires. Also I’m not parting with my car unless it’s totaled or stolen
@headxplosion If you see professional drift events, they're all over the place, lol And Atlas Tires (the one sponsoring Naoto Suenaga's Z in Formula Drift Japan) is also a brand from them.
One thing about engine bay lights - clean, white, switched lights can be a lifesaver if you ever need to open the hood at night. My dad put some in his truck, and even though they don’t get used often, they sure can be handy when we need them.
I want to do that so bad now, but my car is so reliable that I'm never spending significant time under the hood. And the most likely thing I'd need extra light for is replacing a battery, so they wouldn't be working then anyhow. I think a better idea personally is to have some stiff but flexible covered wire so you can quickly rig a phone into a light source where you need it. That way the lights don't interact with the vehicle in any way, and are always charged (you do keep it charged while in your car, right? xD) (I actually keep multiple phones on me usually, so even if I had a dead phone, I still got lights.)
I love it when I see (visually) clapped out Honda Civics listed at idiotic prices, because it's a "special car" or "JDM". Like bro, the engine is still BONEstock, BONEEEEstock. Nothing has been done to the engine(bay), but you do have an ugly splitter and a removable steering wheel (so no airbags)? What's wrong with you? Love your videos man, and glad to see that you're back and have beaten c.cer
Basically this is happening in used bike market in India, they will charge absurd amount just because that bike have a first copy or original after market exhaust and expect us to pay that. That's just insane
8:00 if your buying a car thats maintenance heavy if they cant be bothered to put on good tires and brakes they probably missed big stuff like transmission and timing service
Or people like me buy a 1000 dollar winter beater and drove better than the average driver on new tires. So we don't car think what you want. Pay 900-1000 for my rig or go buy the same thing for 3000 elsewhere and I'll scrap the rig I don't care what you think.
@ i drive n old mk6 golf and i treat it way better than it deserves cause i put fancy michlin defenders and liqui moly oil every 3k miles idc if its worth 3kusd i put the best parts on it no compromise
Tire condition is so telling of the overall condition of the car, a wear item that you need to change 4-6 years on an average car not being maintened really brings up other questions. What else havent been done? Is the car even aligned properly? Did they do basic maintenance?
As someone who has friends and family members that work in the car insurance industry, nearly ALL aftermarket mods depreciate your car's resale value. If you actually want to maximize resale value, you either put the stock parts back on or replace them with OEM parts or upgraded OEM parts. The amount of stories my friends tell me of customers trying to file insurance claims and getting angry after finding out that their mods don't increase the value of the car is endless.
As someone with a lot of LEDs on my car, I can’t believe someone actually would think it adds value to a sale lol. Absolutely a personal taste “mod” that most would never turn on
People think that cars will appreciate the same way as their 401k or stock portfolio. It's such a sad way to live. God forbid it goes one more mile and the value plummets.
Worry over resale has ruined car prices? How exactly does that work? Most people aim to keep their car for about 5 years, so resale is important. No one wants to drop 5k in mods and then end up selling their car for 2k below market because it looks like something out of a F&F fever dream. You've just lost 7k because yolo lmao I'm 25 and I think looking cool to pre-teen boys on insta is worth it lol lmao
@captainslow_037 How did anyone understand what you said? Its wild that we have all the tech in the world and people are going backwards in terms of communication.
thank you for saying this, Ive had to tell people "mods dont increase value when you sell the car" when their selling their cars for 40k+ for a civic or smth. or the bodykit one is so real, I dont even dare put a bodykit on my car because you have to put holes in the quarter panels (rear fenders) and I legit dont care what car it is, YOU CANT REPLACE QUARTER PANELS atleast not without cutting and rewelding the the chassis parts back together which most people dont understand that you cant unscrew those quarter panels.
I've got spyder headlights on my daily. Instead of cutting the harness I just went and bought a pigtail that plugs directly into my running/turn signal and have the headlight accessories run off my running light. That way if I sell it the next owner can just unplug them and replace for stock if they prefer that
if you’re car is anything from the 80’s and early 90’s japanese make KBB is a lie. They say a Supra is like a $7k car and the 240sx is $3k. I don’t even think $3k can get you a rotted out shell for a 240 on Facebook.
i cannot stress enough how annoying ppl selling with bald/worn out tires. And it frustrates me even more having it happen to my dad a few years back. Luckly he noticed the tires and tried to bring down the price, wich it worked and then dorve very carefully home. To no one's surprise the very next moment he came back home we ordered a new set of tires. Yet it shouldn't be a necessary purchase right after aquiring a car in my opinion.
Yeah, some sellers say "do not worry, dude. These are performance radial race tires, 100% contact with surface. You always can buy regular ones if you want".
People selling a used car rarely put new tires on it before selling. So worn tires are part of the used car experience. While being annoyed is your right expecting new tires is rather optimistic if your buying used.
@AK.__ XD. But like man, there sure are stupid people but most are not, yet the still try to lay off their negligence on the buyer. Hope they either never sell the car or sell it to a price so low that it would be more profitable selling it as scrap metal.
@@sportfuryman When I browse for a car on the used market of course I'm not expecting new tires on a car. But they sure need to be within the legal limit of wear that is what I'm expecting. Especially if the car has been driven up to the listing date for sale. I'm not annoyed if the tires are a bit worn or even if they are over half of the usable thread. It infuriates me when the tires are clearly so worn out that it gets dangerous to drive the car and the seller tries to gaslight the buyer saying not to worry or expecting not to enter negotiation with tires as a cause for a lower price. That is what I cannot stand.
One example of car mods that don't give you any money in return usually with cheaper cars is rims, many people here sell the rims separately and put some cheapos or worst of all tells buyer to bring his own rims.
Well, this is probably because they had relatively expensive rims, that worth to be resold in separate. Replacing them with simple steeles - its ok, but asking buyer to bring their own wheels - this is weird.
Love your videos, honestly. You're not whining about things as other car youtubers do, and you understand and explain every side of things definitively. You're not telling anyone to not do something or to do something, it's just simple facts and information. 10/10 content
I agree that 90% of buyers are non car people, maybe even more than that, but this is a video ment for car guys right? And i feel like 90% of us has a car, no matter the value, that will most likely appeal to other car guys soo yes of course i always suggest no matter what you do keep the oem version of what you change, but i also think that there is a bit more tolerance of tasteful mods. But more or less, any mods you do hardly increase the value of the car
Yeah lmao no non car person is going to be interested in buying any of my Mr2’s so this is all pointless. “Wow this 2 seater 40 year old car the size of modern kei cars will be perfect for my daily”
@@Malice_dollthat's how I feel. Like a civic I can see a regular non car person looking at but who the hell is gonna look at a Miata? It's either gonna be grandpa going through a midlife crisis or a car person there is no in between
Great video and excellent advice. For majority of people, any mechanical mods (do not even mention that you had performance chip) will decrease value of the car.
I feel like there are rare cases when some cars are modified just right that people would pay even more than a prestine condition stock vehicle. I mean look at BaT 240sx sales history and the highest bid one was an LS7 swapped, Silvia front end converted Drift Car.
I usually replace the OEM exhaust with a stainless one, when asked I have it tuned to "dead quiet". Nobody wants to hear a boring 1.3l 4cyl econobox. Never removed it from the car when I traded it in as a non-obnoxious stainless exhaust is not a bad thing, it saves the next owner maintenance. So suppose it's a 750 euro exhaust, when I get the offer on trade in, I'll try and get an extra 250 or so for it. Realistically it's some sort of value add, both for the new owner and the used car dealer. So yeah it's often not hard to get a handful of tenners for it.
Some cars desperatelly Ask for new exaust tho My neighbour has a 2009 4L V6 mustang, but when they got it, they changed the small exaust to the one of the GT, now it sounds perfect
You should definitely make a video on mods that add value. I feel like the idea that mods decrease value is conventional knowledge at this point. I’m new to being a ‘car guy’ and I would have thought that if anything, a decent sport exhaust would be a value increase.
My case, if i ever sell my miata, i got the thing with mismatched rims. Replaced it with more tame, matte black RS watanabe inspired, quality reps. Weren't too expensive, probably devalue to put on what it had originally. Mismatch was both different style and colour. Other bigger mod i did. Can't exactly change. Car had cut suspension. Replaced it with tuneable track coilovers. I got it pretty cheap.
If a car comes with alloy rims.... keep the oem wheels safe at home if u mod it. But for a car with steel rims.. like my frnds honda CR-X del sol.. he got value for d alloys.. but not as much as what he'd get if he sold the rims seperately.
You can do mods well, but the problem is that not everyone has that artist's eye. It's kind of like the days of MySpace. If you let people completely customize something, most of them will just make it ugly. Also, lets face it, a lot of modders go cheap. They buy the cheapest part, usually from a sketchy place. Or they do mods the "cheap" way (think just cutting your springs instead of new coil overs). If the mods are actually good then they can raise the value of your car. You'll never make back what you put in though, that's just the life... Take this as a vote for a "good" mods to do to a car video.
Lots of weird statements made in this video that aren't necessarily true, but the tuning bit was really confusing. Out of all the mods you can do to a car that don't appeal to masses a shelf tune is low on the list, shelf tunes are easy to revert, even if you buy a shelf tuned car, replacing the shelf tune won't cost extra so who cares. As far as Dyno tuned cars, nobody is selling a dyno tuned car as a reliable daily to non-car people anyways. The fastest way to devalue resell on your car is by cutting the springs/slamming it, going on a shopping spree at pepboys/autozone, and using spray paint/plastidip on random parts of your car. Honorable mention to amazon ground-fx kits and people who tape christmas lights to their car.
There was this wrx on marketplace with 350k kms for 5500 bucks. Tires were fucked, misfire cause a of a burnt valve supposedly, fucked motor mounts leaked oil(owner denied it) needed an alignment and buddy had another set of tires that were from 2012 and the wrong size. Tried giving my coworker a skater bro discount so it was 4500 bucks but I told my coworker not to bother. The shitty part is that somebody bought the pos. It was pending for a couple weeks and boom it sold
@ doubt it. Probably bought by a dumb kid who didn’t know better. It would take more than the cars worth to fix it using good parts. Even with cheap shit it’ll be expensive.
Bladed you might have just solved a huge headache of mine!! I bought a 5.0 S550 in November and that car has been throwing misfire codes at me non-stop, I've taken it to the shop multiple times and changed out the spark plugs and coil packs but still it comes back on, it might have been a tune that was done that I wasn't aware of by the time of sale
Oh my gosh, this reminded me of a listing I saw a while back. I can't remember too much but they wanted $13,000 + for this fairly common sedan with basically stock everything and a decent amount of miles on it. The reason they were asking so much? "It's a custom paint job. No one in the world has this color." What a 🤡 I always get a good laugh, and a little cringe when I remember that listing
the first one with the exhaust is soooo true... i bought a suzuki samurai 2 months ago and the aftermarket exhaust is pretty mid. it only drones extremely inside the cabin at 2500rpm and thats it. youre lucky to hit a right spot in rpm and load to hear it in a tunnel. im thinking of ordering the one from fox. ive heard that one should be pretty nice.
I said this to a friend before and I always stand by what I said: Never buy modified cars, they are always overinflated and what you are basically buying is almost always tens of thousands of dollars worth of somebody else's problems.
Need to keep a note on stuff like this for future me if i ever do sale I car I don't need anymore. Also to add on, make sure the car is cleaned off when selling it as well. Sure a bit of dirt won't hurt the car, but a car coated in mud and other stuff just won't sit well with the buyer
@ I'm wondering whats the difference, maybe mods are cheaper there so they have less value to people too I doubt it but also maybe true car enthusiasts who want to get their own hands dirty are rarer
I actually prefer that cars haven’t had new tires installed, because that’s like $500+ that the buyer hasn’t spent on a new set so I can hit em and then install the tires I want anyway.
where do things like coilovers sit? I had to replace my suspension to get my car fixed, and i upgraded straight to coils and threw out the old suspension as it was shot, and im wondering how that will afect the sale value when i decide to sell it
On the topic of wheels, just look at a Mighty Car Mods vid, where they roadtripped a VW Up and Daihatsu Mira. Mira was so trash, but Marty got it just for the rare set of wheels it had on it. If it weren't for the wheels, car may still be for sale 6 months after 1st listing.
Here in Brasil ppl sell modded cars for 2x (sometimes 3x or 4x) the value because they "upgraded" the car. To put the cherry on top, most of them never did basic maintenance
My current project is for me. I'm never going to sell cuz prices are too crazy for me to ever want to start over again. My 300zx didn't come with "oem" parts anyway, it was headed to a pick'n'pull wrecking yard so I got it and a parts car for free.
I think the wrx is a bad example of tunes depreciating value since the factory wrx tune isn’t great in terms of reliability and a good tune will get you both performance and reliability improvements for all types of driving. But your point that the tuning device being required for further modding still stands
bought my s2k on ling longs without seeing the tires in the listing because I was gonna switch them regardless. Was laughing my ass off when I brought it home and saw they were there
Clearly the Corvette was trash since he wanted to sell it. I'm driving my dream car until the engine explodes, and then I'm putting a new engine into itm
@@BicBappy-u9o just because he didn't want it anymore doesn't mean it was bad, he clearly loved it but the magic often "wears off" after it's become something normal. I'm a mountain biker, it's a neish that runs FAR deeper than it seems in case you're not aware. I have owned what i'd describe as the dream bike for almost 4 years now; it has the colours i want, i think it looks awesome, the geometry feels good when riding, i managed to get the bars i wanted, i swapped the forks for coil ones and the shock for a SUPER high end one from Fox, found a set of brakes that feel awesome, AND to top it off i've managed to get a tune that feels great for me, it still needs tweaking but to be fair, it always does. It's not as especial as it once was, i see very clearly the problems within the outdated frame geometry and archetype, as downhill bikes climb as good as rocks fly and i don't bring the bike to the trail in a car like most do. The best part is that i never knew the bike was going to be mine until the very day i saw it, about a minute after actually looking at it for the first time; i was buyng parts to re-purpose and refresh my previous bike, the guy looked at the bike and told me "wait a second", then came back with it. I genuinely had to try hard to keep my shit toghether because it was a PERFECT match for what i wanted; Red and black, rounded curvy frame geometry packed with the craziest rear triangle and pivot combo i had seen at the moment. Then he said the best number he could; 600 bucks, the rest of the budget i had to refresh my previous bike. I still love this thing, and i'm willing to do everything i can to keep it running, but that may change one day. I still smile when i see it, i still love riding it, but i know DAMN WELL that i'll NEVER go back to feeling like the thing was more dream of my own than it is day to day reality, that i needed to remind myself that such a thing was actually mine when i looked at it. And honestly? I hope it does wear off eventually, because one day something will break, and it will NOT have a fix, as aluminium gets stressed until failure unlike steel does for example, and this bike is already 16 years old. Anyways, i think i've derrailed myself on my own story enough, the point is the magic more often than not, fades away, and when it doesn't it often prooves to be a curse, because things will end before you stop caring about them.
What if the mods are not necessarily performance oriented but more to the tune of better reliability. My 2018 silverado has had 2 rounds of lifter failure. Once under warranty and again not even a week after i purchased the truck. Luckily the dealer covered the repairs. The only thing i have done is cat-back exhaust, closed-box cold air intake from S&B, and a tune to disable the AFM and trans tuning to disable TC lockup until 5th and 6th gear. My fuel economy went up abiut 3mpg on the highway... and much fewer issues than others i have met with a similar truck
To be fair to Linglong, they're used in pro drift events since they're brave enough to sponsor various drift teams, so I think that's a proof that they could make some quality tires.
They are used by drifters specifically because they are cheap, and drifters actually want to slide, which is a consequence of what any other motorsport would consider bad tires.
You know what i hate the most besides this? Sentimental Value. Like man, if you're selling me a car for let's say 10k fine but the moment you ask for more because of sentimental value, that's where i'll tell you to piss off.
I bought my Evo X off the dealership with a straight pipe and I'm pretty sure a dyno tune cuz the dealership guy bought it used. Sounds pretty good and runs pretty good so I'll keep it like that for a while until I decide to put my own mods and tunes to it
My friend once told me “buy already moded car”. Where is the fun in it? I dont like only driving fast/moded cars. I like to do it step by step myself and create a relationship with the car.
With rims, get a set of simple black ones if your originals are horribly destroyed. My 92 had the worst looking rims. The simple black spoke rims it got now, fits way better.
Meanwhile in Europe.... "Does it clear national technical control?" (as 99% of mods are straight up illegal it will usually not). The only mod you would see on European legal car is ECU tune, or the mod is legalized and part of the car and it will be a lot of hassle to re-register car to stock again. You only mod car in EU if you plan to never sell it (my case).
Want the best resale value? Take off your mods. Replace with stock parts. Sell car as “clean”. Sell mods later.

@@Zympt No I didn't. The person is just saying they are modifying the car internally to the point it is a huge investment. That doesn't mean you can't move on later and take the loss on all that money invested.
@waynek805 you completely missed their point lol
The inverse of the tire thing is true too though, put new tires with good tread on your car and that's a selling point! Non car people will appreciate the convenience of not needing to get new tires, so you can add the cost of tires to your asking price and sell the car quicker. Bonus points if the car also comes with a full set of winter tires on steelies in addition to the new regular tires.
Where I live, underglow and any other non-required lights are actually illegal to have activated while driving on public roads, so they are purely for showing off when you are not on the road.
Dummies don't care usually. I live in socal and they drive around with them on all the time..illegal or not
Bald tires suggest a lack of maintenance care, sure if you're moding your car you're probably also maintaining it properly dor the most part, but bald tires are very visible not maintained components which is a concern.
I mean tires aren’t cheap. I stay up to date on maintenance but during the summer I’m getting my monies worth out of them tires. Also I’m not parting with my car unless it’s totaled or stolen

One thing about engine bay lights - clean, white, switched lights can be a lifesaver if you ever need to open the hood at night. My dad put some in his truck, and even though they don’t get used often, they sure can be handy when we need them.
I want to do that so bad now, but my car is so reliable that I'm never spending significant time under the hood. And the most likely thing I'd need extra light for is replacing a battery, so they wouldn't be working then anyhow. I think a better idea personally is to have some stiff but flexible covered wire so you can quickly rig a phone into a light source where you need it. That way the lights don't interact with the vehicle in any way, and are always charged (you do keep it charged while in your car, right? xD)
(I actually keep multiple phones on me usually, so even if I had a dead phone, I still got lights.)
I love it when I see (visually) clapped out Honda Civics listed at idiotic prices, because it's a "special car" or "JDM". Like bro, the engine is still BONEstock, BONEEEEstock.

8:00 if your buying a car thats maintenance heavy if they cant be bothered to put on good tires and brakes they probably missed big stuff like transmission and timing service

As someone who has friends and family members that work in the car insurance industry, nearly ALL aftermarket mods depreciate your car's resale value. If you actually want to maximize resale value, you either put the stock parts back on or replace them with OEM parts or upgraded OEM parts. The amount of stories my friends tell me of customers trying to file insurance claims and getting angry after finding out that their mods don't increase the value of the car is endless.
As someone with a lot of LEDs on my car, I can’t believe someone actually would think it adds value to a sale lol. Absolutely a personal taste “mod” that most would never turn on

@alexcuevas5633 fr like y'all need to stop worrying about monetary value so much
Worry over resale has ruined car prices? How exactly does that work? Most people aim to keep their car for about 5 years, so resale is important. No one wants to drop 5k in mods and then end up selling their car for 2k below market because it looks like something out of a F&F fever dream.

“Just bondo it bro” average 240sx owner
I've got spyder headlights on my daily. Instead of cutting the harness I just went and bought a pigtail that plugs directly into my running/turn signal and have the headlight accessories run off my running light. That way if I sell it the next owner can just unplug them and replace for stock if they prefer that
Current resale value of my personal vehicle: ~1500-2000 USD

i cannot stress enough how annoying ppl selling with bald/worn out tires. And it frustrates me even more having it happen to my dad a few years back. Luckly he noticed the tires and tried to bring down the price, wich it worked and then dorve very carefully home. To no one's surprise the very next moment he came back home we ordered a new set of tires. Yet it shouldn't be a necessary purchase right after aquiring a car in my opinion.
Yeah, some sellers say "do not worry, dude. These are performance radial race tires, 100% contact with surface. You always can buy regular ones if you want".
People selling a used car rarely put new tires on it before selling. So worn tires are part of the used car experience. While being annoyed is your right expecting new tires is rather optimistic if your buying used.
@AK.__ XD. But like man, there sure are stupid people but most are not, yet the still try to lay off their negligence on the buyer. Hope they either never sell the car or sell it to a price so low that it would be more profitable selling it as scrap metal.
@@sportfuryman When I browse for a car on the used market of course I'm not expecting new tires on a car. But they sure need to be within the legal limit of wear that is what I'm expecting. Especially if the car has been driven up to the listing date for sale. I'm not annoyed if the tires are a bit worn or even if they are over half of the usable thread. It infuriates me when the tires are clearly so worn out that it gets dangerous to drive the car and the seller tries to gaslight the buyer saying not to worry or expecting not to enter negotiation with tires as a cause for a lower price. That is what I cannot stand.
@@Raoq_The_Warlock Fully agree
One example of car mods that don't give you any money in return usually with cheaper cars is rims, many people here sell the rims separately and put some cheapos or worst of all tells buyer to bring his own rims.
Well, this is probably because they had relatively expensive rims, that worth to be resold in separate. Replacing them with simple steeles - its ok, but asking buyer to bring their own wheels - this is weird.
Oh I hate that! "Bring your own rims" that's a good way to get me to not buy the car at all.
Love your videos, honestly. You're not whining about things as other car youtubers do, and you understand and explain every side of things definitively. You're not telling anyone to not do something or to do something, it's just simple facts and information. 10/10 content
I agree that 90% of buyers are non car people, maybe even more than that, but this is a video ment for car guys right? And i feel like 90% of us has a car, no matter the value, that will most likely appeal to other car guys soo yes of course i always suggest no matter what you do keep the oem version of what you change, but i also think that there is a bit more tolerance of tasteful mods. But more or less, any mods you do hardly increase the value of the car

Absolutely. Built not bought
Also, i always keep the stock parts wrapped up in bubble wrap in the store room on my terrace.
I know you read all the comments on your videos bladed. I hope you have a good day. its getting colder and colder so drive safe.
Great video and excellent advice. For majority of people, any mechanical mods (do not even mention that you had performance chip) will decrease value of the car.
I dont even care the subject, just want to listen to this guy.
He could talk about paint dries.
I feel like there are rare cases when some cars are modified just right that people would pay even more than a prestine condition stock vehicle. I mean look at BaT 240sx sales history and the highest bid one was an LS7 swapped, Silvia front end converted Drift Car.
yeah whoever bought that was a sucker!!
Very very rare. Typically resto mods that are well done and improve reliability, safety, visibility, comfort or convenience
12:42 "Wheels separately: No One Cares"
this has no right to be as funny as it is 😭i can't form words right now its just *no one cares* i cant
I usually replace the OEM exhaust with a stainless one, when asked I have it tuned to "dead quiet". Nobody wants to hear a boring 1.3l 4cyl econobox. Never removed it from the car when I traded it in as a non-obnoxious stainless exhaust is not a bad thing, it saves the next owner maintenance. So suppose it's a 750 euro exhaust, when I get the offer on trade in, I'll try and get an extra 250 or so for it.
Realistically it's some sort of value add, both for the new owner and the used car dealer. So yeah it's often not hard to get a handful of tenners for it.
hey bladed have been following you since 2018 love your work and hope your health gets better :)
Some cars desperatelly Ask for new exaust tho
My neighbour has a 2009 4L V6 mustang, but when they got it, they changed the small exaust to the one of the GT, now it sounds perfect

the funny thing about car mods is that you spend like 10k on mods but your cars value drops instead of going up
(atleast in my country)
I appreciate the Nina Williams theme @3:20. I love Tekken 3.
Ive considered an engine bay light setup but not one connected to the battery, but on its own grid probably as something that just snips on the hood
It’s like trying to sell a house you built for yourself with your own tastes and expecting over sale value.
Ah yes a comprehensive set of mods I will search for on a car so I can get em cheaper
Any WRX ever: “IT’S DE-BADGED BRO”, “JUST GOT MY OVERLAYS”, “5% TINT SO IT’S NOT A FISHBOWL”
It’s cool to have you back man ❤
You should definitely make a video on mods that add value. I feel like the idea that mods decrease value is conventional knowledge at this point. I’m new to being a ‘car guy’ and I would have thought that if anything, a decent sport exhaust would be a value increase.
My case, if i ever sell my miata, i got the thing with mismatched rims.
Replaced it with more tame, matte black RS watanabe inspired, quality reps.
Weren't too expensive, probably devalue to put on what it had originally. Mismatch was both different style and colour.
Other bigger mod i did. Can't exactly change. Car had cut suspension. Replaced it with tuneable track coilovers.
I got it pretty cheap.
If a car comes with alloy rims.... keep the oem wheels safe at home if u mod it. But for a car with steel rims.. like my frnds honda CR-X del sol.. he got value for d alloys.. but not as much as what he'd get if he sold the rims seperately.
You can do mods well, but the problem is that not everyone has that artist's eye. It's kind of like the days of MySpace. If you let people completely customize something, most of them will just make it ugly.
Also, lets face it, a lot of modders go cheap. They buy the cheapest part, usually from a sketchy place. Or they do mods the "cheap" way (think just cutting your springs instead of new coil overs). If the mods are actually good then they can raise the value of your car. You'll never make back what you put in though, that's just the life... Take this as a vote for a "good" mods to do to a car video.
YOOOO 2 VIDS A WEEK LETS GOOOO
I bought a car with all the mods that I wanted and am really happy with it. It saved me time and money!!
The linglongs got me rolling 😂😂😂😂😂
Lots of weird statements made in this video that aren't necessarily true, but the tuning bit was really confusing. Out of all the mods you can do to a car that don't appeal to masses a shelf tune is low on the list, shelf tunes are easy to revert, even if you buy a shelf tuned car, replacing the shelf tune won't cost extra so who cares. As far as Dyno tuned cars, nobody is selling a dyno tuned car as a reliable daily to non-car people anyways.
The fastest way to devalue resell on your car is by cutting the springs/slamming it, going on a shopping spree at pepboys/autozone, and using spray paint/plastidip on random parts of your car. Honorable mention to amazon ground-fx kits and people who tape christmas lights to their car.

There was this wrx on marketplace with 350k kms for 5500 bucks. Tires were fucked, misfire cause a of a burnt valve supposedly, fucked motor mounts leaked oil(owner denied it) needed an alignment and buddy had another set of tires that were from 2012 and the wrong size. Tried giving my coworker a skater bro discount so it was 4500 bucks but I told my coworker not to bother. The shitty part is that somebody bought the pos. It was pending for a couple weeks and boom it sold
probably bought by a flipper that fixed the superficial issues, gave it a good clean & polish, then sold it for 9k

Oh my gosh, this reminded me of a listing I saw a while back. I can't remember too much but they wanted $13,000 + for this fairly common sedan with basically stock everything and a decent amount of miles on it. The reason they were asking so much? "It's a custom paint job. No one in the world has this color." What a 🤡

the first one with the exhaust is soooo true... i bought a suzuki samurai 2 months ago and the aftermarket exhaust is pretty mid. it only drones extremely inside the cabin at 2500rpm and thats it. youre lucky to hit a right spot in rpm and load to hear it in a tunnel. im thinking of ordering the one from fox. ive heard that one should be pretty nice.
I said this to a friend before and I always stand by what I said:
Never buy modified cars, they are always overinflated and what you are basically buying is almost always tens of thousands of dollars worth of somebody else's problems.

Need to keep a note on stuff like this for future me if i ever do sale I car I don't need anymore. Also to add on, make sure the car is cleaned off when selling it as well. Sure a bit of dirt won't hurt the car, but a car coated in mud and other stuff just won't sit well with the buyer
Atleast here in Finland, mods increase the car price and they're listed on the post
People seem to think that and try it all the time here in the States too. They rarely sell, because they do not, in fact, increase the value.
@ I'm wondering whats the difference, maybe mods are cheaper there so they have less value to people too
I doubt it but also maybe true car enthusiasts who want to get their own hands dirty are rarer
I actually prefer that cars haven’t had new tires installed, because that’s like $500+ that the buyer hasn’t spent on a new set so I can hit em and then install the tires I want anyway.
good that my Accord is falling apart anyways and 50% of the discussed mods are illegal where I live...
Move away from the communist place you live.
where do things like coilovers sit? I had to replace my suspension to get my car fixed, and i upgraded straight to coils and threw out the old suspension as it was shot, and im wondering how that will afect the sale value when i decide to sell it
On the topic of wheels, just look at a Mighty Car Mods vid, where they roadtripped a VW Up and Daihatsu Mira. Mira was so trash, but Marty got it just for the rare set of wheels it had on it. If it weren't for the wheels, car may still be for sale 6 months after 1st listing.
Here in Brasil ppl sell modded cars for 2x (sometimes 3x or 4x) the value because they "upgraded" the car. To put the cherry on top, most of them never did basic maintenance
My current project is for me. I'm never going to sell cuz prices are too crazy for me to ever want to start over again. My 300zx didn't come with "oem" parts anyway, it was headed to a pick'n'pull wrecking yard so I got it and a parts car for free.
I like how underglow was one of the first things on the list while I'm looking for a good underglow for my car 😂😂😂
I think the wrx is a bad example of tunes depreciating value since the factory wrx tune isn’t great in terms of reliability and a good tune will get you both performance and reliability improvements for all types of driving. But your point that the tuning device being required for further modding still stands
bought my s2k on ling longs without seeing the tires in the listing because I was gonna switch them regardless. Was laughing my ass off when I brought it home and saw they were there

I'm a mountain biker, it's a neish that runs FAR deeper than it seems in case you're not aware. I have owned what i'd describe as the dream bike for almost 4 years now; it has the colours i want, i think it looks awesome, the geometry feels good when riding, i managed to get the bars i wanted, i swapped the forks for coil ones and the shock for a SUPER high end one from Fox, found a set of brakes that feel awesome, AND to top it off i've managed to get a tune that feels great for me, it still needs tweaking but to be fair, it always does. It's not as especial as it once was, i see very clearly the problems within the outdated frame geometry and archetype, as downhill bikes climb as good as rocks fly and i don't bring the bike to the trail in a car like most do. The best part is that i never knew the bike was going to be mine until the very day i saw it, about a minute after actually looking at it for the first time; i was buyng parts to re-purpose and refresh my previous bike, the guy looked at the bike and told me "wait a second", then came back with it. I genuinely had to try hard to keep my shit toghether because it was a PERFECT match for what i wanted; Red and black, rounded curvy frame geometry packed with the craziest rear triangle and pivot combo i had seen at the moment. Then he said the best number he could; 600 bucks, the rest of the budget i had to refresh my previous bike. I still love this thing, and i'm willing to do everything i can to keep it running, but that may change one day. I still smile when i see it, i still love riding it, but i know DAMN WELL that i'll NEVER go back to feeling like the thing was more dream of my own than it is day to day reality, that i needed to remind myself that such a thing was actually mine when i looked at it. And honestly? I hope it does wear off eventually, because one day something will break, and it will NOT have a fix, as aluminium gets stressed until failure unlike steel does for example, and this bike is already 16 years old.
Anyways, i think i've derrailed myself on my own story enough, the point is the magic more often than not, fades away, and when it doesn't it often prooves to be a curse, because things will end before you stop caring about them.

Once under warranty and again not even a week after i purchased the truck. Luckily the dealer covered the repairs. The only thing i have done is cat-back exhaust, closed-box cold air intake from S&B, and a tune to disable the AFM and trans tuning to disable TC lockup until 5th and 6th gear. My fuel economy went up abiut 3mpg on the highway... and much fewer issues than others i have met with a similar truck
It depends on what car you're selling if its something like new edge mustang exhaust mods and wheels can bring the value up if done right
To be fair to Linglong, they're used in pro drift events since they're brave enough to sponsor various drift teams, so I think that's a proof that they could make some quality tires.
They are used by drifters specifically because they are cheap, and drifters actually want to slide, which is a consequence of what any other motorsport would consider bad tires.
BLADED! definitely make more videos!
You know what i hate the most besides this? Sentimental Value. Like man, if you're selling me a car for let's say 10k fine but the moment you ask for more because of sentimental value, that's where i'll tell you to piss off.
Always keep the stock parts when you upgrade. When you go to sell the car put the stock parts back on and sell the aftermarket ones separately
