[s-cars] Suggestions on selling S6

[Postupack, Jeff]

Taka:
 
Fair enough with that call out!  Guess I am blowing smoke up Charlie's
tail pipe I suppose. Your STi story is very sobering, but you DID Sell
the car.
 
I think my email was not descriptive and you said it much better, the
special interest  "right buyer -he/she likes what you've done with the
car"

Do any of those people exist for Charlie? Needle- Haystack. 
 
No shi* on used car pricing man!, what a time to have cash and shop  for
the  91- M5 .. prize, like Mike found..

.....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.
