Default Selling a car

I've had my car up for sale for 5 days and only got 3 calls and no buyer yet :? Selling this thing will free up a good amount of cash for me and Nobody wants to buy it

Anyone have any sales tips? Ever have to sell a car?

It's a hot car 2003 Yellow mustang convertible I get compliments on it daily, I don't know what the problem is

Now THAT"s an IDEA!!

If I didn't have a budda's belly I would do so...

Hummm maby I can take it to the Strip Club and pay someone to do that for me..

I was thinking a Raffel if worst comes to worst. let's see for a $5 dollar ticket you can possibly win a used mustang convertible and weekley washes from Lookers best

I bet it's a great car Stone. Just give it some time. As you know, alot of people have to pay taxes this time of the year and cash flow may be low. The right person will surely come along. Just make sure to keep a sign on it when you are driving or parking it.

Besides the sign on the car itself, I would also put an add in the local newspaper under the used car for sale spot.

Do you guys have an auto trader magazine where you live? We have that here and that's where most people put their cars for sale with a picture. also, putting up a flyer at the grocery store wouldn't hurt either. just a few ideas.

I think the reason you may be having some trouble selling them is they haven't been the most reliable cars. A friend of mine had one and it spent more time at the garage than on the road. Too bad because the Saleen Mustangs a few years earlier were pretty awesome.

Is 14K the going rate or are you asking a bit much for it?

I think you can find the Blue Book value somewhere online and then add an additional amount for condition, milieage and car options. I know it hasn't been too long back since you purchased it. That's always a pain...because you never get back what you paid for it.

Blue book is $14, 325 payoff is pretty close to that to, But if it doesn't sell soon I am going to have to take money out of my pocket and get slammed with a huge loss, but I guess it's better than getting it repoed
