Default New 06 vert

This is my first post so sorry if I screw anything up. I found a new DSOM 06 vert that I want to buy but a little out of my area. I need to sell or trade my 98 Pace Car in order to do so (per Wife ). My question is should I let my local dealer try to sell my car and then let him work with the out of state dealer?
The 98 is excellent with 16000 miles but I'm afraid to buy the new one AND hold onto this til I sell it and I don't want to chance losing the new one.

Buy it and sell the old one on Ebay. I've sold four cars there with Zero problems. Just be sure to price it right and it will be on a car carrier before you can say "paypal"......

If you have any questions about it pm me.

I advertised on a couple of Corvette Forums. Should have no trouble.

I sold an Infiniti on E-Bay and the buyer never responded to the bid and I never heard from him after the bidding ended. I tried to sell a C3 Corvette and was banned from E-Bay for life as a result of not following the rules. I sold the Infiniti to a friend and the Corvette through the Corvette trader.
