163 people have looked at my ads for this car. No one has commented. Is it because i'm not in the Crossfireforum.org clique, i'm trying to sell a car that is specific to this forum. Seems as though the people who post all the time get the help and possitive feedbacks on their posts.

This car needs to go, my bottom dollar is $9500.00 firm.

I think your initial price scared everyone off. Last month I bought an identical car to yours with only 7,000 miles on it for just $10,000. Your "firm" price is now in the ball park, but it still may be a little high with that many miles on it.

Sorry you are having such a hard time selling your Crossfire. Bad time to sell sports cars in the winter, good time to buy them. Other things may factor in as well, such as it being a base, a stick, to some extent the mileage (especially if you are comparing price to a limited version with lower mileage). Your price drops are bringing it down in the range of where you will likely have more interest. See the edmunds True Marke Value prices below. I don't know where you are located so I used my area for the input (which may oe may not be higher values here than where you are located).

Your $9500 pricing is in line with private party noted below.

Hope you can find a good home for her.

Yeah it helps to be in the clique, you will know the secret sign and how to use it in the post.
To be honest with you, nobody knows you and you are quite possibly a car salesman or a curb sider. You have no history and yet get pi$$ed that you have no bites.
Good luck with the sale, we may look but why would anyone comment if they were not buying another car.
The more info you give the better.

Thank you to everyone that posted ! I'm not a salesman, I own a catering business.

PNA, thank you for the info. I feel better about the $9500 price point.

onehundred80, I'm not pissed (takes a bit more than that to **** me off). To answer your question about why you would post if your just looking...I don't know. From what i've seen in other posts, people are commenting even if its just to give a little advice like PNA did, interested or not.

In regards to pics, there is to much snow on the ground to take it out of the garage. It needs a washing before its ready for pics.

Again, I appreciate the help.

If you go to your first post you can edit it to the new price, it will look better as it still says $11,000.
