Each their own.

I personally would walk away from a used car with a CAI......yet many others are going to think.....cool, I don't have to do that as "they" have already.

 

So here is what you do.

Keep all of your OEM parts somewhere in a box. Then when you want to sell the car put all of those OEM parts back on. Then once someone has bought it. Tell them that you also have a box of aftermarket Accord goodies for sale.....lol

 

Bad move; that's considered fraud.

 

I wouldn't say that... Half-fast's Album: Accord Race Car

My LX has a cam, header and Hondata, it is detuned to say within class HP limits at 155HP, 138 torque.

How much are you looking for.



Why?

If he returned the car to stock configuration and sold the car as such, then it seems it's his right to sell the aftermarket parts how he wishes.

Now if he marketed it with the aftermarket parts, then sure, that's a fraud... Now, I wouldn't do it, it takes time to return the car to OEM, and time is money.

 

It's fraud because he would have sold the car before disclosing that aftermarket parts had been on the car (which depending on how long they'd been on and how the car had been driven could dramatically reduce vehicle life).

 

I see where you are going. Knowing the presents of an aftermarket part in the vehicles past could color your decision to buy or not. Correct?

But you would be okay with them saying, "I returned the car to stock, but if you are interested, here is a pile of go-fast stuff I took off if you are interested in buying them"...

 

Correct.

If the transaction was presented in that way, then there would be no fraud because the prospective buyer would be fully informed before the purchase; then they could make their decision on whether to buy or to walk. Personally, I'd walk.

 

Fair enough shipo... That makes more sense...

Sorry for getting off topic...
