Two features that will help...

Price...up front so its EASY to find
Specs..again...must be easy to find.

I lost interest after 30 or 40 pictures.

You are very proud of your baby...dont be ashamed of whatever motor you have in it (I lost patience looking...hint hint)

and dont be ashamed with your asking price....you can always come down on the price...you can raise it.

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/agree.gif) with Rich. Doesn't tell me much about what I'm buying.

Also, on the first page you wrote 'insure' and you meant 'ensure'.

LOL, hey I'm swedish so spelling could be off here and there. I agree with all of you! How about creating the buzz before the sale (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

I know I need to update the site with all the specs, as there are a lot of them.

Engine is a rebuilt 1.8L, not ashamed since I was in the process of getting a larger one installed before I had to move on and leave it as is. Runs fantastic though.

I am actually looking for the highest bidder. I need to sell the car, and Sure I can say give me 10K but I am looking for someone who truly wants the car and the price can always be worked out.

What that reads is "I'm not going to put a price because I'm worried someone would have paid more"

Just like you're trying to get the most money, the buyer is trying to buy it for the least... I have a feeling working the sale like that will only lead to tons of "low ball" offers in you're mind. Better to figure out a price you'll be happy with and ask that.

I didn't think it would be that big of a deal, but yes I will update with a price asap.

I am pricing it at 9K OBO

I appreciate your feedback!

Maybe if you put 914club in the copy a few more times, it'll sell better! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/poke.gif)


Did i just say that?
