A day left and no bids!! Man, that thing seems like a really good deal to me. But this is the problem with selling modded cars, it's never EXACTLY what someone else would do if they owned it. You've got to find someone that has similar tastes. It also shows how a power adder doesn't help resale value any!
The mileage isn't bad, my '05 had 29k miles when I traded it yesterday. And it was minty-mint. Sure this one could be trashed, but then again most people who mod also have a tendency to baby their rides.

I think this may be a great example of what you think is cool and "valuable" to your car does not translate into resale value. Like you guys said this person has 15K+ into this car and no one is even bidding on it. And anyone buying or looking for a used basically new v6 is going to want some kind of warranty, and this thing has none.

There is still a day left, don't be surprised if this thing is being watched by several people who want to wait until the last minute to bid so the price doesn't have any time to get too high. Think about it; if you wanted this car would you show your hand days before the close of the auction just to see the price go up?

Well It's like I said, It needed to start at a lower amount, Where I don't know, $16k might have worked, People on ebay can be finicky and there were other V6 Mustangs with Automatics, Even If they were stock. So in the end the price was set too high for the market.

Yeah.... His bidder has been registered with eBay for almost 2 years, has not gotten any feedback whatsoever, and seems to be in Saudi Arabia.
It'll be fun to see where it goes this time.
