Well ...

Q. Does it have Euro headlights?


Seriously, some reasons for lack of interest would include:
a) it's overpriced, b) it's in poor condition, c) it's too old,
d) it's due for some expensive maintenance, e) it's the wrong
color.

Maybe it is the time of year. People are on vacation; they
aren't thinking of the need for quattro in the summer; they
don't want to deal with getting to the Berkshires. Ask 100
people, they'll give you 100 different reasons.

I'd suggest keep advertising it at the current price for a
month, then start dropping the price until it sells.  But if
the wife wants it gone, take the loss and sell it cheap --
she'll be happier with it gone.

That's my 2 cents.
