[kbb.com](http://kbb.com) lists it FAIR condition which is your car at Fair $4,600 for private party.and to be honest it would be tough to justify even that based on the condition and history of that car, the wheels are in need of serious attention, the head is unknown replacement item, do you have receipts for any of the previous maintenance? the brakes felt sloppy when i drove it, clutch history?, body has some dings and dents. i see 3500$ being the most you can get for that in its current state. sorry to say. but truth is i know VWs far better than most on this site.

really kbb is lower? they are usually alot higher so I used edmunds thinking it would be more fair. I still really need $5k for this thing tho considdering I paid alot for it then put a few thousand in repairs into it. like I said I’m taking a huge hit as it is. But if someone on here did offer 4600 cash right now I would take it. :🙂

see my edit… what you owe vs what its worth is irrelevant. and mods add nothing. to value except if a prospective buyer is willing to view it differently.

I wasnt including any of the “mods” to my car in that price, I had to replae alot of shit when I bought this car ok. Those I’m just throwing in because I wont have any more use for them.

Doesn’t matter if it’s helping his case, it gives you a realistic value of the car.

NADA lists it at 5900 retail for a CLEAN history, and that is also expecting the car to be in good or better condition with little to no body defects.
