So I realized within the last few months that I am going to have to get rid of my explorer because i am going to start going to school pretty far away while living at home. I am planning on selling my 1997 XLT and buying 1998 or 1999 Acura Integra, from what I hear they are a safe bet all around. It looks like I can pick an integra up anywhere between about $4500 - $6000. I have figured with the recent and overall care of my explorer I could get at least $5500 for it. My question to all of you out there is what you think I should settle for. Bluebook tells me about $4400, but i think with the modest modifications I have made to the car it should sell for a bit more. Here are some specs:
1997 Explorer XLT: 110,000 miles, Nearly all highway driving, no racing
5-speed auto tranny
4.0L SOHC V6
Limited slip differential

Electrochromatic rearview mirror

Keyless entry
Automatic on/off headlights
Anti-theft system
Clear Corner Headlights
Billet grill
K&N Intake system
Custom Flowmaster Exhaust (Not too loud)
Black 15" Rockcrawler rims w/ 31x10.5x15" BF Goodrich All Terrains (95% tread left).
