Just needed a bit of help gauging what I could get for my car...I plan on selling it to get a WRX. If I can work out a fair enough price, I'll post pictures up and stuff..otherwise this is just hypothetical.

Black 2003 Celica GT

-Purchased brand new in November 2002
-Engine & transmission swapped in February 2005
-2003 2ZZ-GE out of a Pontiac Vibe, 18K on motor at time of swap
-30k on engine at this date
-2000 6-Speed Manual transmission, 60K on it to this date w/ stock clutch
-Engine and transmission run great - no grinds, no mechanical problems at all.
-84K miles on the chassis
-Paint is in great condition. Minor scratches here and there, but nothing major. Still has a deep shine to it after an afternoon of full detailing..
-Mobile 1 Synthetic and Toyota Oil filter changes every 3,500 miles
-Though low, miles are 85% highway(commuting to and from school)

Modifications:
-Wings West Lip Kit(2000-2002 front bumper conversion)
-Wingless trunk
-2000-2002 Taillight conversion w/ redout kit
-Stock GT 15" Alloys painted black w/ new tires
-KYB AGX Shocks/Progress Springs
-Fiber Images CF OEM Hood & Hoodscoop
-Autometer 3-3/4 Pedestal Tach(mounted on steering column covering OEM tachometer)
-TPR Intake
-Ported exhaust manifold

Throw up any suggestions/offers...thanks!

You have a GT-S gauge from another car in it, right (RPM, speedometer, etc)? What does that read miles wise?

No, I do not have the GT-S gauge from the other car..I still have the original gauges from my car. The car the engine came out of was from a Pontiac Vibe, so there was no way I could use the original mileage reading. I do, however, have the receipt from the swap(it was done at Monkeywrench Racing), noting that the engine had 18K at the time, and had the mileage reading at the time of the swap.

Im just a bit confused as to how to gauge the net worth of the car; should I do it based on the chassis miles? or based on the new engine miles? and what should I classify it under when I search for the value on KBB? I'm thinking I should just assess what I think the car is worth...and go from there. Any other suggestions? I will post pictures sometime soon.

:worthless

Anyway, Not sure considering it has a engine swap people might be iffy on it..
