Thanks, I have seen the cars listed on Ebay. That is why I offered mine with "obo" or "trades considered". Just trying to be a little more flexible.

Link to the auction?

Bad economy to sell a car like this. Good news for someone looking to get into a nice BS for cheap. Now how do I convince the woman I need this car. LOL

Luckily I don't owe anything on it...clear title. I have it titled in Florida as I also have a home there and don't have to pay personal property taxes for Virginia (thank goodness for that). Just can't understand that such an awesome car can lose so much value within the first year.

I currently have it in Virginia. I am heading to Daytona on Friday and was going to drive it there but have too much stuff to carry with me. If you need any information on the car or some current pictures, I can do it tomorrow morning. Oh, I can possibly deliver it to Florida if you are interested.

Steve, How long have you been trying to sell it? With all due respect the price drops in such a short period of time make you appear a little desperate and are going to invite even lower offers. In this economy cars like these are going to take a while to sell and you're going to have to be pretty intense about where you advertise and put together a strong ad with lots of great pictures. Good luck with the sale.

Chuck,
I may have set my sights too high when I first offered the car for sale. I enjoy the car but am concerned with the huge drop in value and don't want to continue to lose my shirt. Maybe things will settle down but to me a fast nickle is sometimes better than a slow dime.

Steve
