[munchgsx]

Anyone done this before, pricing, recommendations?

KBB lol

[blageo23]

I'm also interested in this. I think my car may be worth more then the $4500 that kbb probably says

Getting hot rod ins. They will send some one out to look at it and tell you what it is worth.

KBB lol

KBB is a load of shit. KBB doesn't write checks for cars. Nor does it account for mods. Your car is probably worth more than KBB value to the right buyer.

KBB is meant for newer stock cars, it's a very general pricing guide for general cars. Modded cars can be worth more or less than a stocker, and it's tough to know exactly what someone would pay for it. I find that on here, most people think their car is worth WAY more than it actually is, myself included. Once I realized what people were willing to actually pay for my car, I realized I'd rather park it and let it collect dust than sell it for $4000.

The best pricing guide for a modded car is to see what similar cars have actually sold for, not what they are listed at. Ebay completed auctions is a great resource for this.

This would be only for insurance proposes. The car is getting up there when it come to money spent so I would like to get it valued.

i dont know how it is with your insurance. but with mine they will not insure a car for more than twice its stock value.

so if the going value on the car according to insurance is $2000 they will not insure the car for more than $4000 regardless of how much you spent on mods.

i believe the reason for this is so that people cant go buy some pile of shit. throw a shit ton of mods to ramp up the price then wrecking the car. then the insurance company is stuck paying out gobs of money for a car with little to no actual value.

my insurance company also requires you to carry added coverages such as comprehension and collision when you start adding aftermarket modding insurance further increasing the price.

NADA, 'nuff said. Add any modifications on top of that.

:toiletp:

Thats almost the same as kbb and nothing for what the OP was asking for. I vote Goat Blowers route of appraisal. Would the insurance company be able to send an "agent" out to get it estimated?
