Selling Help

Hey,

New here and to forums in general, so take it easy on me!
I was wondering what people recommended avenues for selling vehicles, Mustangs in particular. (besides Craigslist and Ebay)

A friend of mine tasked me with selling his 14 Roush stage 3 Mustang for him.

Here's the car if you're intrested.

thanks,
Jon

Ebay does reach the largest audience out there. Just don't do the bidding thing where 'juvies' play with your listing. My success on ebay has come with BUY IT NOW with a 'best offer'. I've also had luck with Autotrader in the past. Not sure of pricing now but it was about $45 for a listing. If your Mustang is 'special' like what you describe, you can also list in Hemmings. About the same price as Autotrader but you get in the printed issue along with on-line. Good luck!

Dave (above) has the best advise. Just a cautionary tell. Be careful when advertising local. You get a lot of looky loos just wanting to drive the car. I had that with a Corvette I attempted to sell local.

Cool Pretty Car

Lower the price a whole bunch and drive it to NH.
Seriously.
No BS, but I need a much lower price.
Sorry.

Thanks for the advice! I’ve never sold anything on Ebay, probably why I’m hesitant. Selling local would be ideal, but I could see how it could be a lot of tire kicking.

Any tricks to discourage test drivers?

Way less than 42K, but you don't really have to drive.
I would just come with bank checks and leave with it.
Quick and easy, but only at wholesale price.

I wish I could help you there Jon. They come in all shapes, and sizes. I just gave up, and sold the car to a friend that specializes in Corvettes. I took a little less for the car, but it was so much easier.
