My brother’s FL5 went for 52k in less than a week. It was blue and only had 1100 miles on it but your color should offset that. He got the sale via Facebook market place. I think Carmax offered him a little under that so check them as well. Good luck! Oh yeah, I agree with CTRifecta take that badging off, it’s terrible.

lol, you posted my thoughts exactly verbatim.
For others $52k for that is a good price.

Many of us are purists and like OEM+ styling. The badging is super tacky especially on a car you drove for 3000 miles and decide to sell.
I'd personally remove that while the tape is fresh and take new photos to broaden your market. It is nice to see the used market is approximately $8K over MSRP which is probably close to the average ADM most people pay.

Maybe there is something to having an FL5 and then seeing that price and being like... "Yeeeahhhh, still got it boys"
As far as the looks.... I'll bite. We are not all going to agree with everything. We all have our own tastes. Hell, I don't love a stock FK8. I don't like Spoon plastered all over the car. Who cares that I don't like it... If you like it. Do you! Plus someone just might.
Okay I'm losing steam here. You get the point. Good luck. Get all the money.

You can style your car however you want but when you post it for sale you may want to make it look as clean as possible to not turn away buyers. Same reason you don't paint your house some goofy color. It limits the market.

Looks like he deleted those photos. He had metal/plastic Type R badges at the top corner of the fender close to the hood. It did not look good and people were hating. I was merely explaining why they were hating and giving advice to the seller. GLWS and if you take our advice you'll probably have a better chance selling it quickly.
