Message: <blockquote data-quote="g88" data-source="post: 1933203" data-attributes="member: 1829">well convertered car price is obviously drop like hell and hard to sell nowadays. Most ppl heard "engine changed car" they would not wanna get their hand dirty on it unless you really know the ex-owner and how well the car was maintain all time then maybe if might wanna get it providing the price is good.If i am you whereby kinda of keen to explore the world of modified car, i would go for the old year 95 Satria since as name "modify"...meaning you can always take out exisiting and insert something you want (replacement or modify again :D) but again as the car is already 11 years, you might as well check the body and chasis of the car too and make sure it's still in shape... Also for this car, basically what u pay right now the 14-18k is just the engine/exterior/interior/ modified cost as the car body is not longer worth valueIf you take the Year 2004 Satria SE, try and go check out the market value next day after you buy...i am sure you will be suprise since price will be drop like mad... hardly there will be dealer will dare to take the car since once they heard "Turbo/engine change" car (not original)..sure big no no to them. Also i can tell you end of the day you wouldn't be sactify with current setup as you will still continue to upgrade things like Turbine, Intercooler to those bigger ones...that's the poison of modifying car...by the time you are tired doing all the modification and found there already tonnes of $$ spend to upgrade here and there + maintaining it..then you will choose to go back to comfortable car again and sell this modified car to someone where just step into the world of modified car...Just think throughly about it...what car are you actually looking for ? Purpose ? Becoz you want fast and power ? How much you plan to invest how long can you keep the car....Don't make wrong investment since you know all car price is depreciating every single second and alot MORE on modified carJust my 2 cents. No offence against anybody ya :)This kinda of hobby and passion need alot $$, summore if you are travelling alot..haha, fuel going to burn alot more...wear and tear faster...</blockquote>
