Hey guys,
Sorry I haven't been on much lately. I've got strepthroat and I've been stuck working on tons of homework and projects for clients.

Anyway, how do you guys suggest I go about selling my car? I want to get rid of it and I'll take $6,500 for it in its current condition.

Advertising here hasn't worked so well, mostly because most enthusiasts here already have a sixth generation Celica. So where do you guys suggest I advertise my car? And do you have any tips on what to do to convince people to come take a look at it?

Did you advertise on club4ag?

Other than that, Autotrader or Ebay.

i put my car on autotrader.com and it sold in 4 days. also winter time is kinda a bunk time to sell a celica. tried around this time last year and no luck, but come spring, and it sold in a second.

eBay, craigslist, autotrader (but it costs money).

eBay seems to be the place to sell "moded" vehicles. And hey, just set the reserve to $6500 and hope for better >>

eBay cost money also, but I think it still comes out to less then autotrader, as the good autotrader adds are $50.

edit: looking at eBay's fee schedule for auto's, they seem to be a bit pricey, looks to be about $80. $40 to list it, and $40 for a transaction process fee.

My friends Dad is a car salesman, and he says that the market for used cars and new cars are really bad right now. so Do not get too upset and think that its your car, its just the market
