At best you might get an extra couple grand with the mods in place if you find a real hard core enthusiast but it still won't be as much as you could get if you sold the mods separate.
True and not true. Under previous cars, this is true. But since GM has said that any sort of tune on a car (which his car does) then the warranty is voided. So even if the OP returned the car to stock, it still doesn't have a warranty.

Returning the car to stock will net you more money, but it is much more time consuming, because you have to take the parts off and sell each part individually.

The problem with selling a modded car is that it is modded to YOUR TASTES. You have to find an interested buyer that has the same tastes. Fortunatly for you, the mods you have done to your car are very common.

I would take roughly 1/2 the price you paid for your mods (not to include labor) and add that on to the NADA value of your car. That should roughly be your asking price. If you are selling the car with the mods on it
