All,
I just picked up a 95.5 S6 this past weekend and must let the V8 go. I can
say the S6 is a fantastic car and I am completely satisfied with my
purchase. My 90 V8 is a poor soul in the driveway now and I feel bad for
the neglected older sibling but it is time to part. The market seems VERY
soft for used V8's which is going to lead me to ask what mine may be worth?
-1990 V8, 127K miles, black on black W/sport seats.
-TB job just done, like less than 100 miles ago!
-paint is decent but lots of chips on the front etc.
-AC needs re-charged b/c I removed the condenser during the TB job.
-water temp & fuel gauge sporadic, always have been since I owned it
-Drivers seat heater doesn't work, other 3 do.
-Drivers side rear window doesn't work although I do have a used motor and
regulator that goes with the car.
The big problem IMO is that there is oil leaking on back of motor (imagine
that!) I don't know whether it is RMS or what.
So, what does anyone think I can get for it? Unfortunately I think the best
market would be a kid in HS who is an Audi nut and a good wrench, anyone
know of one? LOL
I am seriously wondering if the thing will even sell. Bruce, how much would
you give for a great parts car that can easily be driven to the lot? Are my
best chances just throwing it on EBAY with no reserve and bids starting at
$500? I would really like to get 3K for it but I know that is unrealistic
so what does anyone think it's worth??
Any takers?
Thanks.
john
