Interesting, thank you for the explanation.

17.5 seems kind of high to me considering the engine was rebuilt.

I dont think a properly rebuilt engine hurts a vehicles sale price. However going to a k20 and then a jdm engine i would say it does.

Yea that's what I meant basically. It's still nice, but it's not a unicorn anymore. But I'd still think that a rebuilt oem engine would reduce the sale price somewhat. But as time goes along this effect might become less relevant.

agreed i am however shocked at the price it finally sold for

It did pretty well considering it's history.

The reasonable mileage and the fact it has been brought closer to stock helped a lot.

Chasing down used stock parts is getting more challenging every year.

I dunno...that jump to 17,500 from 2,500 seems fishy to me.

We will know if the buyer honors the purchase agreement? The first price jump was insanity yet it still climbed slightly in the end. It does seem a bit fishy to me. Also surprised that a car that has been through the ringer in terms of engine failure and swaps, tracked, etc yet when put back to near stock form it still commands a tall price.
