Default Keep or sell the S?

Whats up guys, its been a few years since Ive been on here. Hope all is well with the old crew and hello to all the new guys. I see I just missed the MWG. That was always a great time.

I still have my 05 GPW ap2 but I havent driven in much since Ive owned it. Ive had a few people ask me about it recently and Im debating on selling it now. If I do, what are they going for these days? I see from KBB its worth more than I bought it for 6 or 7 years ago. It has 19,000 miles, bought it with 11k. Modded pretty heavily, but tastefully. Original comptech s/c, Comptech everything you could think of, Volks, oem hardtop, Focal K series speakers and subs, jdm this and that blah blah lol. Still have most the oem parts taking up space in the spare bed room as well as bunch of spare parts, big brake kit, spare custom powder coated parts, etc... I put a lot of time and effort building it up as most enthusiasts do, but now I feel bad that I lost interest and its a waste just parked here. What to do what to do?

Get as close to stock as you can with the parts you have.

Tasteful mods for you might be tacky or unnecessary for others.

You're a member, list your for sale inventory here. Locals first.


edit: Conversely, track that car and get interested again.

Seconded, best way to get re-interested is to drive it

If you sell it, you will buy another one. Trust me.
Keep it, drive it, enjoy it.
I have a pic of your car at a MWG years ago on my work computer.

Last I remember you were into porn and fishing? Still true?

This GPW is already your second S, correct?

Call my husband and make a deal... When I totaled my 01 and looking for my 2nd s2000 a white 05 was on my radar, but there were none out there.

I would LOVE another S! Maybe he can scrounge up some money

But in all honesty, I'd keep it. It really is a beautiful car.

Quoted for emphasis.

If you're serious, send me a PM. We'd want it as close to stock as possible, but would pay the right price for it.

How you guys been? Hope the new family is well. Im trying to do a quick simple sale. I know I can get much more parting it out, but Im to busy to. I seemed to of generated a good bit of interest by just asking a few people if I should sell it. If I cant sell local the way it is, I think I may just throw it on ebay.
