^ I think he owns 2 ATM.

Jonny, I'd just hold on to it until someone that appreciates the value of such a clean car.

I'd personally pay a bit over 7 for such a clean SC.

Why not do both -- enjoy it while you're selling it? Pursue a small campaign to find a buyer at the price you want, and enjoy the vehicle while you still have it. I would repair the seat, but hold off on the other upgrades, as depending on the buyer they might be considered optional.

You have a very nice car, and i'd pay your asking price for it. I've been wanting one of these for quite a while now. I wish you weren't so far away.

Thank you everyone again for your comments. Glad I am being realistic, unlike the people making the ridiculous $4-5k offers I have someone local coming to look at it tonight so we will see if they are legitimate or not.

Viet was right, just 2 SC's right now.

Well guys, I took a deposit on the car today. The couple who bought it will be getting the rest of the funds on Tuesday when the banks re-open

So thank you everyone for your contributions, as before this thread I probably would have negotiated with them like they tried. I held strong

I would've bought it if I had the money. It was such a clean car too! Are you going to buy another SC now that you've sold this one?
