Question Where to sell my 96 LS?

I love my Lexus, black with beige leather interior but I need to sell it. I'm the second owner and it has 114,000 miles. I would like to know where the best place to sell it is and what I can ask for the car. It's in excellent condition, never been in an accident and it has always been garage kept. It has a few nicks here and there but looks beautiful.

They told me they do not buy cars older than 5 or 6 years old and gave me a ridiculous low offer to take it "off my hands". This is the best car I've ever had and I've driven quite a few, including : ME which I disliked tremendously.

If you're selling a 96 now ( an 18 year old car) then the only option is to go with private selling... cars.com ; craigslist or autotrader are your only options...outside of hanging a sign on it.... but you may find that no on puts the value on it than you do, unless you find a Lexus enthusiast...

This original post is about 10 years old BTW

Auto trader, craigslist, etc are your only option to sell the car, even with mileage that low, you likely won't see a return higher than $4500 unless the entire car is absolutely mint and has all records and major services done!
