Re: [Chrysler300] Judging





Keith,
I do not disagree with you. But whenever people are involved in a car sale. the buyer usually will start pointing out the flaws in the vehicle as reasons for offering less than the seller wants for the car. 

Certainly "20%  lower value"  for being a non factory color would be brought up for sure!

The bottom line is sure, the car will draw less cash when you sell it pretty much whatever the manner - auction, dealer, classified - you sell it in. I think 10-20% lower value might be in the ballpark. So if your desire is to make it worth the most to some future owner, your car needs to go back to the white coat it wore out of the factory.

But if it matters more to you how much YOU enjoy the car, and what color you'd rather show it off in, then you need to pick your favorite shade and run with it. Changing it from what it is currently - the turquoise - is going to be a pretty involved and costly undertaking if you do it right, so whether you go white or something flashier, be ready for a pretty hefty price tag.

Have fun!

I am restoring a 300D.  The tags say it should be a white car although at some point it was repainted a turquoise.  White is a pretty plain color and I would like to repaint to a correct color but something a little more colorful.  Some clubs, like Cadillac (CLC) allow a car to be repainted without deduction so long as the car could have been ordered in that color from the factory.  Are there judging deductions for a 300D repaint to another, but correct color?
