There are degrees of modification.
I buy cars set up like I need for a certain purpose so I’ll do little more than floor mats, license plate frame and radar detector mount with power tap. Have other cars if we want faster or cooler. An Integra is to replace our Si as a fun cross town ride, with a stick and moderate power for entertainment.
Some folks will learn to wrench on these innocent cars and will greatly decrease their value, but won’t care. I’ve modded them to where they could only be trailered to a track. Everyone should once. We all need a hobby.
In my mind I’m modding the car a bit. To a prospective buyer in a few or 15 years, my car will be “unmolested”.
