Talking Surprising Value

Yesterday AM, I stopped by a McDonalds to pick up a cup of coffee for my 100 mile trip to visit my sister. A gentleman ( I say 'gentleman' because he was wearing a suit & tie, unusual for around here ) driving a Cadillac CTS parked next to me and proceeded to question me about my baby.
He first asked if it was new.
I replied "no. it is 7 years old"

He said his first impression was that was some sort of new model he was not familiar with, and had judged it to be between $65K and $85K

When I told him that they can had for $13K - $16K, he did not believe it, and asked how to locate one.

I gave him this forum and also advised the other various web sites like cars.com and carmax and ebay.

( I also told him he could have mine for $65K )
