People Dont Grasp This Concept!, Mods lower value of the car Options

[kman2010]

I just dont understand why people are asking for ridiculous amounts of money for cars with minor mods. I mean i understand if you got a show car and your asking for 15,000 of the 25,000 you put into it back. but if you have a basically stock celica with intake, and some crappy paint on the interior. maybe exhaust and a wing. that should lessen the value of the car shouldnt it? so why ask for all the money back from it. its just me whining because i have a totalled car, and its gonna cost me alot to get my baby back together, or just buy a done one.

anyone agree or disagree? open topic, speak amongst ya selves

I've always agreed with this concept and believe it but nobody agrees. Maybe it's because everyone that went to my old high school were into the rice thing. I'm not saying mods are rice, but the things my friends were talking about, was rice. I believe mods do lower the value of a car. I personally wouldn't buy a car with mods... period. I bought my Celica stock and the only upgrades I plan on making for now are mods to keep it clean. Like anything from Toyota or TRD or an option that didn't come with my car like a sunroof. Minor mods here and there till I drop the 3S or 4A in there. I'm a big fan of dustin15brown's and ghostdog's cars. Super clean. But yeah, I just felt like posting my 2 cents. I apologize beforehand if this bothered anyone that disagrees or feels differently about this issue.
