Man I guess the market just isn’t there. Dropped the price again! If I’m way off base with the asking, send me an offer!

I don’t think your price is off base. You have to consider these facts. Modded cars don’t normally add value. No matter how much you spent or babied your car. The mods are worth more to you than others. Getting good cash value back is taking the car apart and selling it stock. You would sell it in a week.
Second, the forum isn’t a great place for a $20k transaction. This thread has less than 5k views and it’s nearly 10 months old. Given a generous number of 250 new posts per day. And potential reach of 60-100 users per day. The reach just isnt there. Many who visit probably already own a civic and are not in the market for a car on a forum. This just isn’t the ideal way to get it out there to sell.

Thanks for the comment.
I guess I just got lucky selling my other (also modded) civic… I listed it and it was gone in a month … and for a lot more than I’m asking for this one!
I have it listed on marketplace and OfferUp but those sites are just polluted with “is it available” messages and no solid follow ups.
I’m not really concerned about recouping money I just figured it was worth at least what 15-16 totally bone stock so for this package… you’re right about the views and audience tho, just not visible enough.

Can you explain the reasoning for the OEM Insight Leather Armrests and Center Console instead of getting the Civic Sport touring one?

Feel free to message me for questions not related to sale…you could search too there’s a lot of info on the leather swaps.
At the time I did them, there were country wide stock issues, I think that was all. Same parts.
