Selling cars is all about timing and the market. You could have asked for $10k and waited it out. Someone may have bought it sooner or later. You dropped the price wanting to sell it sooner. Every car is for sale, it is the price that drives the sale.

Selling cars is all about timing and the market. yes, but it also about the car!!!
Waited it out? No, not if the car is not worth the money and be an honest seller!
You dropped the price wanting to sell it sooner. maybe, if it is market priced...for the condition of the car. it will sell. in a year or 1 day.
Every car is for sale, it is the price that drives the sale.Yes. but only if the car is worth it! or you find a complete newb with more money than sense

You 914 guys crack me up. face it. the car has rust rust rust Actual holes! its a Karmann built bare steel unibody car...what you see was just the tip of the iceberg. add a noisy engine and a ton of non original work. lots of parts near the end of their life and you get a 5800 car! if you did not see the car in person and you comment... well duh.

The car was a project car. a drivable, good starting point, but non the less a project car not a 10K car.

The price was a fair price. And I did not misrepresent a single aspect of the car. How many of you have gotten burned by a misrepresented car or a seller hiding all of the bad stuff!

At least 25 teeners responded to the ad. Only one guy from Houston saw the car for what it is and only one potential buyer arranged to see the car in person...he passed at 5800!


This is my last post on this site, after 11 years, 65000 miles plaques and trophies autoXs I am moving on.
