Help Trading my car in

I test drove a Mazda 3 fully loaded today and man was it sexy, so much comfier and refined than my balt, I still have like 8k left on my balt, and the dealer said im in negative equity because of my mods, anyone know what I can do with this car and still get all my money back? Maybe sell on ebay?

bump

make it back to stock and go to different dealer and see what they say about it. thats if you can make it back to stock. but if i were you id just keep the balt.

may i ask why you want to trade it in though?

Welcome to the real world.

When you go to sell a modded car you don't get **** for your mods. Sometimes modding a car even lowers the value. For instance, high performance upgrades usually mean that the prev owner raced or ran the **** out of a car.

Book value is book value.

The only way you get anything above book out of your car is to find someone who likes the things you've added and is willing to pay you extra for them, not very damn likely.

Put it back to stock. Sell your system separately.
Or try ebay, but good luck.
