[s-cars] Suggestions on selling S6

[Michael Lardizabal]

.....the car market has tanked beyond belief.

I'm closing the deal on a 1 owner from California 91 E34 M5 w/ a fairly fresh motor and tranny. Loaded w/ Dinan goodies. Binder of all the work as well as the original window sticker bla,blah..blah.

6,000  clams !  

Same car last year would have fetched 10-11K  24-7.

Jeff, Larry, etc.:

I gotta disagree here- the car market is very poor this year. I think
postulating that a C4 S-car is worth mid teens is a little foolish- that's
so far above what the car is worth, you'll only get that if you find the
right buyer and he/she likes what you've done with the car, etc.

Typical C4 S-cars are in the $4-6k range.

Along the same lines, my old '04 STi with 17k sold for $18k. That's
below
market, but I sold it immediately, no BS, no test drives, nothing. That's a
car with a similar cult following, albeit a much younger crowd. Really clean
STis with the kind of mileage mine had were selling for absolutely no more
than $19-19.5k.

Heck, the way the market is going, I'm afraid that I've overpaid for my
C6-
I got a good deal at the time, but things have changed for the worse even
since August.

Taka
