Considering selling my car...

So I lately I have been thinking it would be a good idea to part ways with my car…

I have one year left of school and figured I can suck up having no car for a year and then buy another (or upgrade) when I am done.

Now my dilemma… Currently I have 92k km’s on the car, full load B7 s4, full exhaust.
Currently the CEL is on due to the cat less downpipes. I was preparing to get a JHM tune before coming to this decision to sell.

To prepare the car for sale I am unsure if I should follow through with the tune (Spend the extra $550) or sell as is with the CEL (May deter a buyer?). OR should I remove the downpipes and replace them with the stock pipes (Pain in the ass) and reset the ECU to remove the CEL.

Also, what would be a fair asking price? the car is in MINT shape, it is going in on wednesday to have a final inspection before the warranty ends at the end of this month. Also there is audi care remaining (115,000 km service).

Thanks for any and all advice!

Just get some o2 spacers to take care of the CEL. there’s several good ones available on eBay for cheap that work well. Or use the spark plug nonfoulers which is cheap but drilling them out is a pain

How big of a spacer is necessary? would something like this work

Here’s a guy selling used OEM DPs and piggies http://www.audizine.com/classifieds/showproduct.php?product=69969&title=piggie-pipes-and-stock-down-pipes&cat=24

Catless DPs have value depending on brand. You could always sell them. I know someone who may be interested :wink:

I’ve got some catless trexturk DPs I’ll more than likely be selling shortly.

tREBs, if you don’t mind me asking, why are you considering parting ways with your car?

^DIBS

Also interested!

I’m purchasing a condo and will be in my final year of school. I figure it’d be smart to part ways for the time being so as to not financially over-extend myself. When I finish school I’d be buying something else, more than likely a B8 s4. I can suck it up for a year!!

Also I still have to stock DP’s I was considering swapping them back in and selling my Trexturk dp’s but I am undecided… the install was a pain in the ass!

I vote you swap in the OEMs so BWT and I can have a set of Trex DPs … hehe

Yeah, good thoughts then to part with the car.

You put the trexturk dp’s on right? Shouldn’t be too hard to get em off :wink:

Once you get the JHM tune, I guarantee you won’t be selling the car. Buy that, and enjoy it.

^^The truth

You have no idea how close I was to buying it the other day ahah, I need to be smart with my money at this time, and I’d prefer to be comfortable paying for a condo rather than stressing to make my next payment.

As I said I am done school in a year, I will buy another when the time comes!
