February 28th, 2012 02:28 AM #1Hey Guys,
I just got my first car last Aug. She's a Honda Jazz GE MMC. And I have an itch to dress her up. I get conflicting views on whether to keep it stock or customize it. So the question here is:
Which has higher resale value in the future, Stock or Customized?
Which offers more satisfaction over time.
So far I've only added Modulo Spoiler Wings and leatherette seat covers.

Believe it or not, a bone stock one commands a better resale value, especially with its factory original paint intact.
Take it from a 2nd hand car junkie like me.

February 28th, 2012 12:00 PM #8Thanks guys! I appreciate your opinions. Sometimes nakatempt talaga kc when you see other Jazz na pimped up talaga. but I guess tama nga c MDA baka magsawa tapos palit na naman haha
I guess keeping it stock is a practical and simple way. I still think maganda na sya overall already.
Questions, how bout interior add-ons? Kc like the Shift Knob is just plastic as well as the arm side rests. parang cheapo tingnan actually unlike the new Honda City na with gun metal accents ung loob nya kaya maganda and class yung feeling. I drive everyday and parang nalulungkot ako wen I see the plastics =S kuripot talaga to c honda.
You think enhancing a bit the interior would add more value on resale? I just kinda don't want to spend so much and not get anything back in the far future.

It will not icrease resale value. And if hindi maganda install (hacked p the door panels, dash or trunk) can even lower your values a bit.
The point is you will never recoup what you have spent (especially if you factor in the time you spent). The best it can do is help you sell faster.
Renzo, im not really a fan of LED tails but the old ones were tired and getting new ones is $$$. Pwede na din, at least hindi altezza? Hehe

February 29th, 2012 11:48 PM #10If you want to accessorize your car, make it subtle. For the exterior, you can add door visors, an OEM rear spoiler if you do not have one, OEM fogs if yours does not have it, 3000k yellow bulbs for the foglamps and 4300k plasma xenon bulbs for the headlamps, aftermarket rims and perhaps a bigger, better looking chrome exhaust tip should you prefer it. For the interior there's not much that can be done aside from the seat covers and perhaps a better sound system. For the mechanicals you can consider installing an aftermarket air filter and a piggyback ECU. That's perhaps the best you can do.
Too many trucks in Marcos. Naguilan is too far coming from the south. So Kennon is a lot faster.
