Default How To Sell a 90?

<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/83922/audiatmobil.jpg"></center><p>
Well I feel like my baby has done me all she can do, she's starting to get a lil old and before any expensive expenses come into play, I wish to sell her and possibly buy an A4, Coupe, or MKII GTI. No matter what I will remain loyal to the Audi group because you guys are the best group of guys and gals on the net.

So here's my ad so far... anything I should add or change or make sound sexier? I'm planning on selling this to a non-audi enthusiasts because you guys know what it's worth actually, and I would rather sell it to some kid who's awed by the four rings and pay top dollar for it. Any input is greatly appreciated :-D



For Sale: 1994 Audi 90s
$4500.00
2nd Owner, auto, blk/tan, V6 2.8 L (new tires, cats, pwr steering pump,) heated seats, immaculate interior, clear corners, Alpine Type-S speakers, 10 spoke rims, 13,000 miles per year.<ul><li><a href="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/users/83922.phtml">Additional Pics</a></li></ul>

Default Well, to be honest...

you don't seem to honest. First you say you'd like to avoid paying some high $ expenses that may come up - what's that mean, you haven't been up to date with regular maintenance? And then, you'd like to sell it to some kid who would "pay top dollar for it", probably all the money he has just to realize he will need another $1,000 to fix it, or should I say he will need to spend 30% of the car value to get it fixed...like you say "13,000 miles per year", instead of...what ~150,000 miles...13 a year sure sounds better, especially knowing its an automatic.
IMHO, the best place to sell it is Audifans, but not for that price Either way, good luck to you!

Default Well, to be honest, you're right

but I take care of the car real good. we own a limo company so I go in for maintance along with the limos and the guys take care of me. it's just I put so much into the car already and I was young and ignorant, I still am , and with that money I could have had a nicer car with no major problems. I realized that I have to change the timing belt because the past owner did not, motor mounts, and A/C Condensor. I already changed the power steering, brakes, tires and other small assorted stuff. I'm 17 years old, i work at Mobil on the Pike and I really would rather spend that money on a new to me car than into the current one.

Default Just personal opinion, but a "new to you" newer car may not

be nearly as nice as an old Audi. Many people I work with have much newer cars, but not nearly the solid feel or even all the accessories (ABS, heated mirrors, etc) And for what you get for this Audi, you won't be able to buy that much newer of a great car.

If it needs a timing belt now, you should really disclose that to the buyer. A broken timing belt will ruin the engine. Nice lookin car!

Default a_CQ said everything I would have said...

Are you actually asking a group of people who are dedicated to preserving and maintaining these cars how to deceive someone into paying more for your car then it's actually worth??
