PS-What do you guys think I could sell my mach for?

3500 miles, slp lm 2 cat-back, maco/r h-pipe, Steeda Tri-ax, K&N air filter, and showroom condition everything.

I got a number in mind I want but wonder if I can realistically sell it for that in a month's time.

fast sell = 15-16K, maybe get 17-18 if you hold out and find the right buyer but the market is horrible for selling these cars right now.

Not like you can't speed excessively and drive like a jackass in an econobox, the ricers do it all the time!

No, I paid for it with the help of my grandparents that gave me $5k towards the car.

His Dad owns the house, he makes the rules.

It seems a bit harsh to me though.

Do all of us mach owners a favor, please don't dump your car off. Everyone is killing the market even more by selling these cars for cheap. I'm trying to sell mine right now, but everyone thinks they should get a mach for $3k below value. Post it up for $19k, I'm sure that's what it's worth. If it takes longer to sell then you can hold onto it for longer.

It's posted for $21.5k in my local newspaper and ebay right now. I want to get $20k for it, but if I don't get any offers close to that before the end of the month I might let it go for $19k but no less. I've already had offers as high as $18.5k, but don't want to let it loose for that just yet. Good Luck with your sale!

yes i'm 100% with you on that and yes its a very harsh punishment. When I crashed my dad's car I didn't even have my restricted license, I could've been in a world of trouble, but he stepped up, told the guy that he was gonna take the blame and his damage would be paid, and he still took me to get my restricted afterwards, he didn't speak to me for a month, but he stepped up. I think my situation was a little worse than his is. The point is to learn from the mistake, not torture you for it, I did, I have not gotten a ticket in the 5 years I've had my license, not even pulled over. Now 5 years later the tables have turned, I'm paying for every bill that comes into MY dads house, from morgage, to electricity, to food, you name it, because he's not able to do it at this moment, but i don't regret it, he's my dad and I thank him for everything he's done for me, now its my turn to step up.
