rallynut555 Posted April 21, 2006 Share Posted April 21, 2006 Its painful to consider, but I'm seriously thinking of selling my 05 LGT. Has 20.5K miles. New Toyos and bobcats on the front brakes. Commuter car. only real blemish is a slight scuff on the front bumper from rubbing a wooden pole when I spun out on black ice on an offramp. Should I try to sell on this forum first or just jump on Autotrader? Car has never been in any sort of spirited driving event. -Lee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RuskiTrombone Posted April 21, 2006 Share Posted April 21, 2006 You'd lose more on the sale than 2 years worth of gas. Do the math again and see if it is really worth it if it is your only reason to sell the car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rallynut555 Posted April 24, 2006 Author Share Posted April 24, 2006 you make a good point, but being that I fill-up every 5 or 6 days, that's over $3k a year in gas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RuskiTrombone Posted April 24, 2006 Share Posted April 24, 2006 vs 1.7K a year you would pay in a civic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

carman493 Posted May 16, 2006 Share Posted May 16, 2006 How long did it take to sell on Ebay? it took listing the car twice, as i had it sold the first time, but the buyer backed out....ebay is really your best market though. good luck. post a link when u put it on...make sure you take lots of pictures of all parts of the car including any damage and be honest with your listing that was if someone comes to look at the car there are no surprises Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

plunk10 Posted May 22, 2006 Share Posted May 22, 2006 sold my LGT limited 5spd for $20,000 on this site a few months ago. There's a guy on here that designed some gauge pods for the cubby door. He bought my car currently I'm only driving a beater Nissan 200SX that I paid less than $2,000 for back in 2003. Gets 35mpg city, and about 41mpg highway. Saving all kinds of money with no car payment, and a greatly reduced insurance payment. Still, I miss the LGT like no other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
