Re: Would you sell? (bl75vette)
I agree with the majority here due to the high price he's willing to pay. rrent has especially good advice about finding a replacement before you sell, since he's not going anywhere. I would, however, make sure he has the green before I wasted any of my time...

Re: Would you sell? (Ed T)
The guy's offering top dollar for your car and you're obviously interested in selling it. If you weren't you wouldn't have surveyed the forum regarding your decision. I say go for it.

Can he prove he "Honeymooned" in it and was the previous owner, if it's the sympathy factor that makes you want to sell?

I'm with the majority, Sell. I'd look around to see if the 14-15K will get you what you want to replace it with. The guy who sold me mine has been hinting about buying it back after I fixed all the annoying problems(2-3K plus labor). You can bet it'll cost him $$$ to get it back :lol:

Re: Would you sell? (bl75vette)
For the money you're talking, and considering he has sentimental value for YOUR car. I'd sell in a heartbeat. In the end it's just a car and you can use that money to find another one you'd be just as happy with. I like the suggestion to find another car before letting yours go.

Re: Would you sell? (bl75vette)
It was his first car, and honeymooned with it.
I told him I wanted between 14 & 15K. He said the car meant a lot to him and would like to have it back.
If he is willing to pay that I would jump on it, but then again I'm trying to sell mine :jester
