Has anyone tried selling a coupe recently? I listed mine wll under the kbb value and I'm still getting some pretty low offers. It's making me sad cause I don't really want to sell the car but now I want to sell it even less..

 

yeah its pretty painful to try to sell an 03-04 x.x

 

Research prices on Edmunds, KBB and Craigslist. List accordingly and just wait... Make sure you list it for a few hundred over what you want since everyone lowballs.

Try going to CarMax, too! They might give you a decent price...

Your car will sell... Itll just take time in this economy. =T

 

the problem isn't getting offers.. its getting good offers. looks like iim just going to go with the highest bidder (which is about a grand short of what I wanted)

supid economy =(

 

Just take your time... I sold 3 of my cars in the last 3 years. On average it took me 2-3 months to get an offer I was happy with....

 

I just sold it.. haha. It wasn't quite what I wanted but I have bigger things I need the money for. Thanks for the advise though! I'll definitely keep it in mind for the future

 

btw, I was looking at your sig.. nice setup. I always wanted a set of SF Challenge for my G but never got around to it

 

Thanks! The previous owner had good taste luckily for me! and good luck on your next car!

 

how much did you sold it for?

 

It takes time to sell right now.

Long story short, a ton of people over the past ten years got addicted to the crack known as "credit". Basically a bunch of broke azz ****'s who tried to live out a lifestyle they never earned by taking a HELOC vacumn to their over inflated houses.

So now, few people can afford to fork over cash for a used car, and few people can get the credit necessary to buy a used car from a private party on credit.

It took FOREVER(not really, only 3 months actually) to sell my 2009 Yaris with 26K miles and in perfect condition. And I had it priced $2-3K BELOW what used car dealers were asking. Tons of inquiries, but every idiot thought I was the idiot, and wanted me to finance it(yeah right). Even though I specifically put in the ad that I would not finance it.

Finally found a buyer who was able to get financing through their credit union. Smart lady. She got a well taken care of used car that looked and ran great and gets 35mpg.

Anyway, its tough to sell expensive things right now.
