When selling a car, do you really lose out that much if you leave mods on?

I hope it goes to an enthusiast who will care for it. It's sad thinking that some of these gorgeous cars I've drooled over might soon be abused and left for junk.
Leaving mods on a car is asking for vultures to circle around it. You paid near MSRP for all those mods (maybe some of them were used parts) but the vultures will claim mods "de-value" the car. Maybe you're lucky and find an enthusiast willing to pay for the entire package but most times you'll still make more parting out despite the time/money spent on doing so. Especially when it's easy bolt-on stuff like wheels, strut bar, exhaust, etc. Would I bother removing a short shifter, probably not.
