R36 wagon - easy to sell???

[reverseworm]

Hi Everyone,

It's time for me to sell my R36 and just wondering what experiences/views people had regarding the ease in which (or not) it is to sell these cars. I have found a replacement vehicle that I am about to put a deposit on, but a little part of me is nervous about selling the R36 in the deflated used car market. I don't want to be 'stuck' with it for months and months.

Difficult question I know but how well are second hand R36's selling?

Mine is a novated lease and I would be looking to sell it for basically the payout figure which might make it move a bit quicker. Best thing is to put it on carsales I know, but would appreciate some words of support before I take the plunge on the next car.....

FYI - my car is an '09 wagon in icelandic grey with 54,000kms, sunroof, sat nav and auto tail gate. Looking around $48-50k. Still under new car warranty.

well, evidently not that hard to sell. Deposit taken

Thanks Jayse - can't tell you how much I am gonna miss this car. Really don't want to sell......

LOL! It's fast because you priced it really low. Care to share how much you sold it for? PM me if it's convenient.

I knocked a couple of grand off, so it was a really good deal for the buyer I think and I covered the payout figure so win win I guess.

Have a good product, and price it right it will sell quick.....as you have done.

Just sold our Family Pathfinder before it even hit carsales.

Had a great product priced it at the bottom of the market....done.

There is something to be said for a quick sale even if you do reduce the price a little. The amount of calls I had and people wasting my time - hate to have it on the market for months and go through that all the time.
