Yeah, she's my baby. I've owned her for over 4 years now. And she's very reliable as a daily driver. I commute 120 miles per day for work and haven't had any problems. I don't really want to sell her, but I have to for financial reasons.
Here's a few more pics to maybe spark more interest....
Side shot
Rear shot (sorry it's dirty)
Close-up of my brake setup
Stereo (I hit 132.5 decibels with just my two 8" subs)
Back seats
Front seats (they are clean, just bad lighting in this pic)

At this point, parting out the car is not an option. I would much rather sell the car w/all mods. But I'll let you guys know if that changes.

WOW! Dude your car is clean and if I say so I think you really are shafting yourself. I know by book your car loses over $1500 cause of the mileage but to the person that buys the car they should know its a fresh new BUILT motor. I plan to sell my 1998. Of course I have less mods than you but also only 60k miles on the car and I will start at $13k and work down from there. But not by much. If they want the car as is they get a great deal, if they are short changing with weak bids, no way! If you have to ask what it is and what it cost than you are looking at the wrong car. If I were you I'd do the same. Let me tell you straight up you won't get what you want from a 2GNT community. Even knowing the true cost of all those mods they are too critical. It's the truth, market value here and resale is not worth it. Advertise it in the local area, paper, internet. That is your best bet. The car will go to the person that wants it. I feel your pain...best in what happens...

Yes, I know the car is worth more than I'm asking, but I really need to sell it soon so I'm willing to take a hit on it. I was originally asking $13,000 for it.
I have posted it for sale on a few local boards, DSMtrader, and on eBay a while back. I'd really like to sell it to another 2gNT'er because they will know more about the car itself, tuning, etc. than just some random person. I'm just hoping there's someone on this board that wants to buy it and keep modding instead of starting from scratch with a stock 2gNT.

No offense or anything but it's probably not the smartest thing to put an add for your car on here where everybody on the site has the same car. I'm not sure why a lot of guys on here do this. Now if you were parting it out I guarantee you'd have nothing left but a frame by now. If you haven't already I'd put an add in the trading post or some other local paper for you. Good luck, oh and BUMPY BUMPY.

I'm in Denver, Colorado. Where are you located?

I suggest that if someone on this board is interested in the car, you should both write off each others cars as gifts to each other so you don't have to pay taxes on the sell.
Then you would get BoostedGS's car, and BoostedGS could sell your car to a dealer or to the general public since it would be less modded.
Basically, you give boostedGS X dollar amount plus your car's bluebook cost, and boosted gives you his car.
Just a suggestion, since it's not reasonable to strip his car just to part it out.
