    Default Selling info

    Hello and happy Friday!
    I am going to sell my 09 GT with 45K miles to CarMax. I have a Volant CAI and Cortex tuner installed.
    Is it better to sell it with them installed or go to stock and try to sell them separately?
    Does the tuner store any personal data?
    Once you program the car back to stock is the tuner unlocked?
    Thanks for the info!

    Sell separately and yes once you turn it back to stock the tuner should be good to resell. Read up on that one, however. What personal data have you put in the tuner?

    I couldn't remember if anything was stored when I downloaded the tunes from the website. It's been a long time!

    I am going to detail it and list it locally first so if anyone's interested please let me know.
    I'd like to see it go to some who appreciates it.

    I know of an 09 with 50k that sold for over 17k no mods on FB

    CarMax offered me 16k for my 09 with only 32k on it last year.

    I guess it all depends on your location.

    I am hearing of prices all over the place.
    My plan is to have it detailed and list it for sale.
    If anyone's interested please let me know.
