Default Need advice about selling

I have a 1998 Gt Convertible Mustang with less than 12,000 miles. Can anyone suggest the best selling route to get the most for this car. The condition is excellent. Thanks!

You could put it in AutoTrader. You get pictures on the website and an ad in the magazine also. Sounds like you got an awesome car. Good luck with selling it.

I would also suggest trying autotrader.com or perhaps even Ebay, or cars.com

There are a lot of options online for selling and your car will get a lot of exposure that way.

Truthfully I think putting it in your local paper will be a waste of time for a car like that. As mentioned by others I would suggest online, eBay, Autotrader, etc. That way people that are looking for a rare specific care like yours will have easy access to it. Not that your car is rare, but in that condition is pretty rare. I don't think you will get a fortune selling it, I just think you will be able to get the full book value for a low mileage excellent 1998 GT Convertible.

I agree. I think it will get a whole lot more exposure if you put it on ebay motors, cars.com, ect. Good luck! I wish my'98 had that many miles!!

Ebay and autotrader.. nice thing about ebay is that you have a failsafe.. if you dont get how much you want - you always have a reserve - autotrader, has the magazine AND online - so that's a lot of exposure right there..

Absolutely. Reserves on EBay RULE!!! However EBay fees can be a little higher than autotrader. I think it has a lot to do with the fact that EVERYONE go ons EBay and the are the worlds lagest online bidding site. Anyway good luck.
