this is the flyer that will be on my car at monterey
this weekend. andrew at 2bennett said it was worth
$12k, but i am asking less OBO.
for clarification, my company diddn't actually IPO,
but i did get a stack of cash from a private stock
option transaction.
why sell the urw? i have never owned a new car,
and can only have one car because of where i live.
after driving the a4 1.8t, then driving a chipped
one with a k04... well it fits my lifestyle. it's
quiet, smooth. i can fit my musical equipment in
the back, carry 5 people *and* gear for skiing,
carry enough gear for a long road trip with camping,
even fold down the seats and sleep in the back
(i already measured for this). new cars have
warranties, extended warranties, etc.
i had been considering getting a cq and all that,
but the appeal of a new car is just too strong.
it's awd, it's a wagon, it's a "sportscar" - everything
i would want in a car.
any problems?
- windows slow but functional
- one of the headlights has a hole from a rock impact
- front right side was hit and repaired some years ago,
along with an entire coat of paint which was well
done. the PO actually rear-ended someone. the car
appears perfect, the repair was good imo. this was
enough, however, to scare away a potential buyer who
was going to trade the car for his, which had a $14.5k
asking price.
- minor crack in one taillight
- alarm isn't that great, but it works fine
- heater and diff panel lights out
- a/c removed for weight savings (have all parts)
anyway i wanted to run the ad by y'all and get opinons
and such. it's a shame to sell it, but i still have
*plenty* of stock options to sell in the future, then
i can get a house of my own with a 3-4 car garage...
you know the rest of THAT dream... when it happens i'll
find myself another urq and start over! whee!
