Re: Difficulty selling 83urQ patience pays.

<< Car sales are bizarre.  I have watched car nuts pay unreal money for
 the *exact* car they want [$50,000 for a hemi 'cuda in very nice
 condition, huh?] and other great cars sit and sit and sit.
 


 Price is the key.  Fact is, you are selling a 15 year old car, with
 probably "high" miles.  This makes your market very limited.  Price
 obviously depends on area too.  Beautiful ground up restoration '84 or
 '85, can't remember, sat around locally at like $11k.  Wonderful car,
 but, it was 12-13 years old.  Most cars that age are in the paper for
 <$2,500.  Buying public just doesn't understand the diff.
 
 Ask what you like for your cars, but when I see a project urQ for sale
 for $15k, I shake my head.  Same is true for these $28K+ S4's. 
 Probably all great cars, but.. >>

Ditto ten times over, in fact I think I've posted on this topic several times
before----one really doesn't have to pay stupid money for cars if they are
patient. Thats probably the one thing I say when someone saks me to find them
a car----"patience pays"
