Is anyone else having trouble selling their is250 MT?
I've been trying to sell my car for about a month 1/2 now and its been pretty bad experience for me. I've got 11 flakers now~ as of yesterday who said it was a for sure deal. and i might have to resort selling my car for 20,500, its pretty retarded to take such a big hit in resale (i paid 32,500). I see other people listnig their cars for way more so i dunno how many people can relate to my situation.

Wow, unless you've racked up a TON of miles $20k is way low. If you decide to sell that low I almost guarantee I can find somebody to buy it 'right now.' As asked above, year, miles, condition, mods etc?

Here's his car listing on this link. It explains why the resale value is low.

I didn't get much action on my 6MT either.
So, I ended up taking it to Carmax, and they gave me what I thought was a fair deal. Can't hurt...their appraisal is free, and it only took about 45 minutes.

I think it's a fair price and passed on the link to a few friends. I really like white 2IS's, and the 6MT is nice to have too. I wouldn't think it'd be this hard to sell it, but then again nobody is buying anything currently.

I know how you feel. Anything over $10,000 is selling really poorly right now. People are just not letting go of their money right now. I just sold my wifes RSX. Had it up for sell for 4 months. Currently Blue book was $17000. I tried 16000. nothin then 15000 nothin 13500 still nothin finially I had to give it away for 11500. The car was super clean low miles. Hurt really bad to sell it that low

I remember this white 6MT from past posts. yes the miles are high, but that car should hold better value. It looks like a Craigs List posting and it wwas smart of the poster to place in a Car Fax. I am confident it will sell.
