Hey GLWS. It is a nice looking X but I do concur with what the members on here have said. While to you the X looks balls to the wall awesome, some will frown. Especially that Supercharged Audi Badge. People get flamed for throwing M badges all over their cars, forget about throwing a competitors out there. But again, your car, your style, no body else's opinion should matter... until you sell the car. You can do a search on here with people who have done extensive modification trying to sell their cars... 100% of the time they end up putting the car back to stock and selling the extra equipment separately. Even people with Tasteful mods have a hard time selling it.

I've found people who buy extensively modded cars are usually of younger age (17-25) and normally are Civics, Supras, Integras, and Z32's. People rarely buy super modded BMW, Audi, Mercs because well... Most of the time it is out of their price range. The rare times I do see a modded BMW, Audi or Merc, its either extreme or tasteful. For example... a 330i with a Roller Skate Wing on the deck lid, black rims and trash can exhaust, oh and a sticker on the rear glass that says "Illest" on it. Then you have the guy that has a 330i, tinted, sleeper, and looks stock. 9 times out of 10, the guy with flash gets more looks, but 1 out of 10 will actually be interested in buying the car.

So; again... this is my opinion and you can tell me to shove it if you want. But bottom line we are all trying to help you sell this thing here. I would start out with taking that audi badge off. Then seeing how much it would cost to get the hood sprayed back to Titanium Silver and take the wing off the back. Also, I wouldn't say the X has "Factory upgrades" Did the parts come from BMW, yeah, but when your whip was built... It didn't roll off the line that way. Just my opinion.

Like you said you have no rush to sell your car. There has got to be at least one person on this planet looking for what you have. So you can leave everything the way it is and advert. the crap out of it or after a while if you get no hits... keep it.

BTW... Curious where you got the stock price of $18,600 from? Market Value for a 06 3.0 with sport with 100k on the clock is $15k at best. Just want to see where the justification came from that stock is worth $18.6 and you are looking to get $20K.
