Asking price too high?

TU335Y · 07-13-2010, 08:28 AM

I put my car on craigslist last week to see if I could sell. Just wanted to get your opinion on if my asking price is too high. Keep in mind I set the price figuring there would be some negotiation involved. (OBO)

I think you are fine asking that price at the beginning, especially since you have OBO. The dealers are giving these away right now, but yours does have low miles and navi and sport pkg, so your price is a bit higher accordingly. Beautiful car, if I someone would buy mine, I would definitely buy yours! (I want AW

)
Good luck

Definitely appreciate the feedback. Don't get me wrong, if somebody threw $32k at me I would definitely take but I had no intention of actually getting that for the car. I wanted something reasonable starting off considering the mileage, options, and new tires on the car.

Good starting price. I'll trade you my dark walnut trim for your aluminum before you sell it, though

Sadly, if you search autotrader for that year model/mileage, you can find examples at $25k. Surely they aren't as nice as yours, but you have to also consider the mindset of the used car buyer.

Unfortunately, 6 speed seems to be more of a hassel to sell these days. Most buyers seem to want slushbox. Be patient and hold out for the right buyer. From my research, the price may be on the high side, but certainly reasonable. The market is pretty saturated and there are fears about 07 335's considering first year HPFP failures.
