Lightbulb Selling the 'Ol Stang

RPM427:

Just a reminder:

Be certain to tell the buyer and write on the receipt you give the buyer of your car: No Warranty - Sold As Is.

Once that car leaves your property and the money has changed hands, you don't want to be hassled everytime the car has a problem from that point on and at 110,000 miles, it will and we all know it. So should the buyer. It's a 13-year-old car with high mileage on it.

I sold a lot of older cars (privately) and always made it clear that I'm not a dealer and I can't guarantee anything on an old car with over 100k. It may run great today and pop a head gasket tomorrow. Chance you take on a car priced at ten percent of what a new car costs.

Unit has a point; I always price any car I sell as 'FIRM'' which means: no deals, take it or leave it at that price. Never had a problem.

Obviously everybody has a number for you (sounds like the old game show, 'The Price is Right') but an ad is cheap. Price it at what you think is possible ($3200.) and see what happens. If you get no takers or potential buyers laugh when they see the car then lower the asking price but you should get $2,500. if you're not in a rush and clean it up to the best shape possible.

In my opinion, the factory T-5 is worth an extra $500. alone. I've seen posts here from folks desperate for an older Mustang and they cry about not being able to find a stick shift on the market.

You'll do fine.
