Wow, I can't believe nobody commented on this. I always thought this was a well done car. I always followed your various build threads. Good luck with the sale. Hopefully you find a new owner who truely appreciates the work you put into it.

holy **** *****, 16500...........its a nicely done car but i dont ever see you getting that. no one in the cobalt community would get approved for that lol. more or less because no bank will give a loan for that much for this car. GLWS though.

IMO its a fair Price. Blue book for a stock one is anywhere from $10,000 to $14,000.

Time will tell though.

There is no way you are going to get that price for that car. Custom work doesn't add to the value of a vehicle when it is time to sell unfortunately. I hope you get it, but I don't see it happening. For that much you can go buy an almost new car with factory warranty.

what ppl fail to know is custom work may not add much to the value but it did cost the owner. and with $28K in additions on this car (YA DUMB its a cobalt i get it. heard it all before) IMO the small addition i have it over Bluebook is Fair.

To think you will get a modded vehicle and not have to pay a small addition is short sighted.

by that theory my car should sell for the Exact price of a guy with a stock 2008 Cobalt SS that sells for say $12K. and he has no extra parts.

all in all time will tell if it sells.

thank fully im in no Huge rush.

Unfortunately, that's exactly how the market usually works. Custom work to most people means inheriting someone else's problems. Putting money into a car isn't a good return on investment unless it's a classic collector car or a legitimate racer.

That said, I wish you good luck, it's a shame you have to give away something you have put a lot of work into.

not quite my cup of tea, but it was definitely done well. it might help to state whether or not the kit was poly or fiberglass. that might be important to someone. i know gravana isnt around anymore. wonder how many of those kits they sold

glws

Fiberglass Body Kit. and that I know of there were 6 kits made. 2 were sold. and half a kit was resent to me cause the shipper destroyed a box.

Google image search I can only seen mine and the Gravana Cobalt with the kit. Leads me to believe there are only 2 out there.

Passed this car and 2 others in Whitby this past week at Tim hortons.

Pictures don't do justice car is Flawless in person..

Also a note for future buyers, If you plan on modding your car buy this one and take what you want off it, If anything you can take parts off and make money...Realistically I seen less modded TC's and even Stock TC's ask for more ...It's not rocket science this is an amazing deal.

GLWS and nice ride man
