Default How hard would it be to sell a 2004 V6 - Auto?

I found a really good deal on a GT nearby and am looking into purchasing it. I recently bought my 2004 for 11k. It's V6, Auto, 38k KM (22k miles). The body is in good condition with a couple very small dents and paint chips. Undercarriage has a little bit of rust on it (old owner kept it outside in the winter) and the interior is immaculate.

Question is, for those who have sold these in the past, how hard is it to find a buyer? I would need to sell it within 1-2 months and I would offer it for as low as 10.5k.

I'm very interested in the GT as I would like to mod the car and it wouldn't require as many upgrades as the V6 and also would get more out of them...

That is WAY over priced for a V6. Cut that in half, and you'll still have a bit of a hard time to sell it.

Heh, not where I live. 10.5k for this car here would be a deal, especially with the low miles and late model.

Well, if you say it's a deal go for it. Just remember you're selling a 6 year old used car. I bet you can find the S197 bodied V6 cars for that price now.

I wish....

for a comparable S197 (V6, near the same mileage) you're looking at 15k +

Dude that is wayyy to much for that 04, its almost 6 years old and it still cost more than my 02 when I got it 4 years ago with 40k miles on it. Good luck with trying to sell it.

Did a search in your area: http://www.autotrader.com/fyc/search..._type=priceASC

Ended up drooling all over my keyboard.

Yeah, but with the currency exchange and trouble getting it to Canada and legal in Canada would cost me just as much. :\
