Lets say you fully built your dsm from the ground up. Wouldn't you want to get the most out of it? And why would you say half of what's done to the car was done wrong? You just probably haven't fully built a dsm.

So lets say I bought a new Corolla in 1990, and over the course of 22 years, I spent over $10K in maintenance and repairs. Does that mean I'm justified in asking $9K when I sell it? Money invested does not equal value. If the guy wanted a solid investment, he should have bought $40K worth of stocks rather than build a race car. If he wants his money back then the car should be parted out, but even then he would be lucky to get $20K for performance parts that are now "used".
And ultimately, all that part/price list shows is this guy has more money than brains. For how much money he spent on that car, he could have built a tube-frame dragster ready to run 8's. Hell, my buddy picked up a fully built Celica ST205 for 1/3 the price. And by fully built, I mean the PTE 6262 is the most limiting part of the setup. Spending $25,000 for a car that makes 500hp and "should" make 700hp is asinine.

How is this a funny post. This is legit.
1990 Eagle Talon TSI
and the same add where you get the talon for free if you buy the rims

It isn't about parts bought or money spent, when you mod a car if you get back 1/3 of the money you spent you're one of the lucky few. You don't know the quality of the work, so it might seem like an amazing race car and end up being a piece of crap. I do understand that he's trying to get the most out of his car, but a part out would be his best bet and recovering some of his loses. He'll be lucky to get $12,000 out of it, specially since its a "it should make this much power" car, just because it should doesn't mean it will.
^This.
