If you want to sell quickly...advertise an aggressive price. If you want to sit on it for a bit and get "top dollar"...advertise that way. I hate selling cars, but I won't give one to the dealership to save my life.

My method is aggressive and done... Look up KBB private party retail for your car...be honest about its condition. Price the car appropriately to account for "what you know" about your car versus what may get missed by a buyer.

I've typically taken that retail value I arrived at, priced the car at $100 or so less and sold the cars in less than 2-3 days. The last two were sold within 24 hours. Did I make all I could on the car? No. Did I get exactly what I was asking with very little in the way of negotiating on the part of the buyer? Yes. Was I able to move on to enjoying my new toy versus worrying about keeping the old toy clean and protected until I sold it? Yes.

Good luck on your sale.

Again honesty and being friendly go very far when selling a car. Plus ask yourself what you would like to know about the car you are buying and put yourself the their shoes.
The car is not an odd color.... Alot of cars are made in a similar color to this I don't even know why you would argue about a topic so petty....Grow up.

To the OP I've had much success with Autotrader and Craigslist, whatever the case never trade it in to the dealer.

Well im glad you think a 28 year old man is a child. And I'm glad you feel soooo passionate about the color of paint, but I think you need to settle down and act your age. I must have struck a nerve with the grow up comment hah.

BTW I read that thread daily for a good laugh but nice try.

You don't even own a roadster you have an 03 coupe. So quit trolling and starting stuff you know nothing about and leave. Mr. "THE TROLL" Everything.


Theyre looking for another Mr."THE TROLL" Everything over there. Last one just got banned.........Maybe you should give it a try???

Ill take advice when it comes from someone mature enough to give it. Why would I have to own a roadster to even comment about how to sell a car? you make no sense haha oh yeah I like how you name call like a 12 year old you should at least come up with something clever to say.. Now grow up and stop littering this man's thread for the sake of god.

Did you grow a set of ***** behind that computer?? You call me 12??


The thread is called "How to sell a roadster". Not how to sell a coupe. So again why the fck would you give advice on a car you don't own. Youre a troll because you trolled in here and talked in the middle of a thread that had nothing to do with you or any comments you made. Just to start trouble. That is a troll. My money says you wouldn't talk $hit to me face to face so don't become an internet thug and do it online.

I will sit here behind my computer and continue to laugh at you.
For the record I said grow up and you blew up like someone took your lunch money, get over it.
you seriously act like a little kid, I pity anyone that deals with you on a daily basis.. I'm done with you now go clean yourself up.
