If this was a convertible..............then I'd be over to llook at it.

Not to be a naysayer, but your car is priced quite high. Retail is between $10 and $11K. I hope you can get your price, but I'd say you'll likely need to be "Flexible" on a price. Car looks beautiful.

This a car with less than TEN THOUSAND miles. It deserves a premium.
I willingly paid a premium for my 11,000 mile 2006 Jaguar S-type.

A good rule to follow is to determine the car you want then find the one with the lowest miles.
Hard to go wrong unless you can find a 2015 Crossfire Coupe (or 2015 S-Type Jaguar for that matter).

Never going to get that much for an 06, look at KBB and go down from there.

I believe in paying up for the best you can find in what your looking for. Naturally, for every buyer and seller you'll have extremes. Best of luck.

Many here have paid around that price for SRT6 coupes with less mileage......for the last 4 years.

?? All you have to do is look at the comments posted here. You have your head in the sand. Your asking price is way too high, no pictures, is there a VIN? After holding on to it for a few more months maybe you'll see. And, it isn't just my opinion, it is also many others. Also, your a new member, not helping credibility...

As you've heard from the feedback, the people on this forum, who are all quite active and experienced in all things Crossfire, have provided an arrary of feedback on the pricing. Believe it or not, they are all trying to help, even if the tone of some of the responses are a little harsh. That being said, take them for what they are worth. Just know that most buyers, even if not educated in the Crosffire, will check NADA, Edmunds etc. and they will then need to guage there own willingness to pony up to some amount, whether that be asking price or some price between retail by a private over or some other internet comparative price. List it for what you want, but as I noted in the first reply I had, I, and others, expect you will need to be flexible and likely lower. How low will depend on how much the prospective buyer wants to spend for "this" car, as compared to another car. We all wish you luck with the sale.

Just so you know, I bought one, 4 years ago, with only 6K miles on it and paid 13K. Garage kept, never seen snow, one owner, still had some warranty on it too. It was newer then, pristine, etc. etc. You may find the perfect buyer sceneario for this and we all hope you do, but it you really want / need to sell it then I expect you'll likely end up lower then your current asking price. Even though it's like new, its still a used car, with no warranty (unliess you have one that applies and is transferable.

It appears many of us cannot accept we own truly special cars with much to commend them for a long term retention of, if not increase in, value. Low miles, leather, lots of factory power and tops that go down will provide a multiplier effect but the coupes are probably the most beautiful of line and this color combination is hard to equal.

These are not practical Nissans nor economical Toyotas. These are exceptional cars which tug at the heart produced from the very short marriage between two dissimilar car companies each with its unique contribution.

Each day there are fewer. Basic economics states when the demand goes up or is constant and the supply diminishes the values go up. What am I missing?

This may sound hypocritical or self serving from someone with a car offered to the market (but now I doing it secretly on this site only so far) but my reason for selling has nothing to do with future or present value.

Go for it.

If I had the secure storage space I would buy almost every one I could find with under 20,000. The bet beats 1.8% CD's or newer gauranteed to depreciate cars.

My car is very special. It will be special for as long as I own it, which will be until I can't drive it or dont know I own it. That doesn't make it valuable or worth buying it at a price that most people won't or can't pay. Someday I think it truly will be a collectors car and hence more valuable. Im with you, if I had a bigger garage and more money I'd buy a bunch more of these great cars (although it would need to be an SRT ROADSTER). All most of us are saying is it will need to be someone like you or I to command that price, not your average joe. I too hope someone out there will go for this at a the price, but based on the market odds aren't high, at least not in a quick sale. Im off looking at cars again....

Cool Re: '06 limited coupe 9,800 miles mint condition

Finally someone here in the forum acknowledges these are not just your typical cars...... I wonder how many of you would so quickly sell your +fires for minimum NADA/Edmunds or whatever??? These cars will NO DOUBT be collectors items one day.....If I could keep mine shrink wrapped and could afford to I would.....

I hear ya ALL though....if I gotta drop the price I gotta drop the price......

sweetass car to just give up ..........
