May have to sell the Miata! Need advice on pricing if I do.

[Champion1]

Looks like I am geeting laid off on monday from Lockheed so I be having to sell the Miata eventually. Its a 92 red with 81k. I have just about fixed everything on it and it looks great. A couple of hail dents but otherwise body is great. Any idea of pricing guys?

[Treibenschnell]

Let me know what you price it at... I may have a buyer for you!

You may want to check with Sammm he recently sold a low mileage '92 Red.

I wish I knew about this site before I bought my Miata, but I still think I got a decent deal

Sorry to hear about the layoff. That's the defense contract business for you. Thanks Dubya!

I'd probably ask for $4K for the car and be willing to take a little (no more than $400-$500) less. I listed mine in www.cars.com and was happy with the results.

[Treibenschnell]

Again, let me know when you decide...I suddenly have a very eager buyer. Sorry sammm, it's the same guy that was one the fence post when deciding on your car... now he needs a vehicle more than ever.

No problem. That's why I ended up listing it externally. Too many people on the post! :P

True!

But actually I was making reference to sammm's post about other's being on the post...

Damn. I'm tempted, but the wife has that money earmarked for bedroom furniture. Given that we're still sending Mazda hefty checks every month for the MSM, a second Miata might be a little much.

My wife is a Caddy type person she likes a big car with a smothe ride, so why can't I keep her outta my MIata?

I think we may buy a new one if she dosen't stop hijacking the Blaze Mobile. (what does a new Miata go for these days?)

[channelmaniac]

It goes for MUCH cheaper if you buy at the right time...

I saved over 8K off the sticker of mine by buying a brand new 2003 model in March of 2004

$26,085 on the sticker... $17,999 + TTL out the door.

Dang thats a steal!!!, I am taking you car shopping with me next time I wanna buy new.
I HATE car salesmen I put them in a lower catagory than Lawyers.

[channelmaniac]

Funny thing is... that was the price marked on the car... which was less than the S Plan pricing I'm eligible for through work...

Dealer discounts, rebates, and factory to dealer incentives combined to just push the last few cars out the door.

I will let you guys know. It will probably be sometime in March before I would decide to sell. They give us 60 days notice. If I do not find a job by then I will sell it.
