Many of the performance mods will decrease the resale value, especially at a dealer or car lot. Going by what the few sales ppl I have talked to about this say, they assume that, even if the mods themselves don't affect reliability, the heavy right foot that usually goes with performance mods does. YMMV.

I'm not trying to say one shouldn't mod their car to their heart's content, just that it is seldom a wise business decision. You just don't get your money back when you go to sell. But most mods aren't business - I've spent a lot of money on sex, drugs, and rock & roll that I'll never get back, but it was still worth it.
