about getting a different car. I need some advice though. Obviously I'll leave the suspension installed on my car and the TB and UDP, but should I try to sell it with the intake, chip, and wheels? Do you think I could find somebody willing to buy my car for what it's worth? I have done all needed (and unneeded) maintenance to the engine. New brakes and some other stuff. I'm looking for a miata or a nissan 240sx or sentra se-r in the $3000-$4000 price range. Maybe less and spend extra money on modding it. What do ya'll think? Am I just crazy?

Even if you don't have the answer, you certainly have to admire the problem.

yeah crazy sums it up pretty good. take off what mods you can sell, and sell them seprately. I dont think you will find someone who wants a modded contour. your better off not saying what mods you did to the car. most people will see that as "he must of beat on the car if he did stuff to it to make it faster".

If you do decide to sell it, I will buy the CTA for the right price. I have been wanting to get one.

I'm gonna look at a miata tomorrow and maybe a couple of other cars. I need your stock intake as well since mine is sorta chopped up.  Bad thing about it, I can't remove everything I've done to my car. If I sell it, they'll think darn it has a rough ride, but it will go faster than a typical zetec so that might help sell it.

FWD, auto,etc.... I still mite not sell, but only because of the hassle of trying to get my sold at a good price and find another decent car and doing it all at the same time so I have transportation. I just think a miata or a 240sx or a se-r would be more fun.
