Put the stock exhaust, wheels, and take all the blinking lights and bs off of it. Right now you are appealing this car to one type of buyer........A young kid. Now, if it went back to stock it becomes an "Econo Box" and not a "Rice-burner kid car". More buyers will be looking into it, as it will fit their needs. Everyone knows hondas are great reliable cars, but no one wants to buy one that was owned and riced out by a kid. Think about it? Is a 30 year old man going to even look at your add when he sees that youre focusin on the "Custom rims, tint, exhaust, lowered, blah blah? No. But if it said "Reliable, affordable honda, Great gas mileage, perfect for commuting etc etc. More people will be interested in it. You wanna appeal to EVERYONE.

yeah just put back to stock everything that you can. I might wait on buying the suspension but do everything else.

i would not mention the suspension in the ad. talk about the economy points of your car, and how great of shape it is in..how well maintained it has been.

Ive seen guys in their 30s driving cars with rims and such, but dont make the car sound like its been made to appeal to kids.

You dont have tacky rims, and its not like the car is slammed (at least not in your gallery). Make the car sound great and well taken care of in the post, and when they come to look at the car or look at pictures, they will see the rims and such. I wouldnt worry about the suspension, as its not like the car is a dragger...

i dunno... i just need to get rid of it quickly, i'm tired of paying the payments on something i don't want and can't afford right now. plus, i'm ready to have something i can actually start upgrading again.

see if you can do a trade+cash for an older Civic (if that's what you want)
