BTW, I forgot all about this...but I had the same thing happen to me about five years ago with my Mustang. A kid I worked with hounded me for months to sell him my car. I finally threw out a number one day (I was thinking about unloading it anyways) and he took it. That was the easiest car sale I ever made.

I sold my 98 w/ 116K for 10K a few months back, no problem.

A decent car will get decent money, but most crap 12 year old cars won't pull crap.

Nobody made the buyer fork over the money...a car is worth what someone will pay for it. Obviously, to someone his car was worth $10k.

I agree SELL! I had a guy hound me for weeks about selling him my car(95 T/A with 68K miles. I told him it wasn't for sell then I decided to sell it. I contacted him and he said that he was just joking. I then sold it to a friend for $6,000. I know I gave him a good deal. That was just over a month ago. I then turned around and bought my 02 Z28 from a member here for $6,500 with 73k miles. So yeah sell it then get another one with a good bit of cash to mod it with!!!!

I also would only sell with my Kimber 1911 .45 Ultra Carry on my side!!!!

I didn't rape him, I gave him a price, and he accepted.

I wasn't going to sell it for $5-6K, I would keep it as my garage queen under a cover, but for 10K I felt it was a good price and enough that I could do something with the money in the future.

FormulaZR did you see this one, mileage a little high, but its got the goods
