Lightbulb Sell 981 with aftermarket parts installed?

Hi I have a 2015 Cayman with Fabspeed headers, Borla exhaust, x-73 suspension, COBB with PDK tune. I've also kept all original parts.
I don't know whether to part out everything or sell with aftermarket parts already installed and give the original parts as well.

Always get more $$$ and easier sale for a stock car. X73 can stay as it’s OEM but headers and COBB will be better off removed and sold separately.

Stock is always easier to sell to the next owner. Porsche buyer are the pickiest I've ever seen. Added lots of aftermarket mods makes people wonder if they'll have to deal with negative performance of engine issues. I would just be very clear in the description and offer to include the stock parts in the sale. Good luck!

I just went through the same dilemma as you. Glad it's behind me. Best to restore the 981 to factory or as close to it as possible. It's a PITA going through the remove/install process and you won't get what you paid for the mods went you sell them but that's just a fact. Most buyers are skeptical of modified cars. Typically mods won't increase the buyer's offer over what they would offer for a stock vehicle. GL!
