    Best place to sell car?

    Anyone know the best place to sell my R8? Reason I ask is because everywhere I place an ad, 95% of calls are from the annoying solicitors trying to get me to use their service.

    I was thinking of having my dealer consign it, but there goes another $5K off the top.

    Any suggestions would be great on how to market it for a quick sale.

    Craigslist got the attention of a few. Eventually sold it to someone from Craigslist. I did get a call from a duPont REGRISTRY solicitor, who sent me a couple of free magazines. Good luck with the sale. Will you be picking up something different ?

    Hi there,

    I have sold 5 exotic cars in the past 8 months. Listed each on Craigs, respective forum and ebay. 1 sold through a forum, 3 sold to leads from ebay after the listing expired, 1 sold through Craigs. The biggest pain with Craigs is the spam offers. You'll get the swing of noticing them and not even replying.

    BTW, send me an email on your R8. I am in the market. jjgrice55@gmail.com

    Jeff

    Thanks for the advice. I'll try craigslist and ebay.

    Jeff, I definitely know the CL spam. Easy to spot if you're on CL long enough.

    such as: "Can you please tell me more about your item?"

    Once I placed 10 items on CL and got the same exact email for each item, from the same moron.
