those are not quality products, just cheap crap they sell to the masses, only thing decent is the kicker amp. i would not pay extra for the vehicle because of the audio in it if that is what you're asking...

Hes selling the car for a really fair price even with the "upgrades" . Are they bad enough to avoid the car all together?

I bet that’s sounds like overpriced crap.

Its decent stuff for the masses, no one on a car audio forum will be impressed tho. If the car is a good deal consider it a bonus.

As long as he's not inflating the price of the car to recoup his money spent on the audio then I don't see any reason to avoid it.
As others have said the headunit and amp are okay.

The subs are lowend and are in a crappy box but its technically better than 99% of people who have no subs in there car. If you did buy this car you could always just sell the subs/box and use that money to invest in a better setup (selling the sub setup would probably cover the cost of getting a custom box for a single 12 inch and then all you would have to pay for out of pocket is the new sub)

As others have said, if he isn't asking over pp bb and the vehicle is priced similar to others in your area I'd consider the stereo a good selling point. Though it's not worth paying much over. If I saw two exact cars for sale and one had a half decent stereo I'd choose the one with the stereo. 1) Because it was professionally done (Quality varies, but still). 2)You can rip it out, sell it and buy different stuff if needed (Value)
