I estimate over 80 RX8'S for sale at the present moment , with few genuine buyers , so unless you are a keen seller you may have to keep your car for a while yet or drop your price to bargain basement levels .

What a shame... That means that Timbo won't be able to sell his car and will have no choice but to keep it as a track car for the Nats...

The initiall saving on the pov pack i think will turn out to be rather costly , as i believe most buyers will go for all the extras the leather pack has over the pov pack for the same price , if they get a choice and with 80 or so cars out there for sale Timbo might have a long wait unless he bends over and drops his price quite considerably . HA HA HA

i think my price is quite reasonable with only 11000ks, I would even let it go for $44k if someone was interested

mate the car market in general is down. Petrol prices are ridiculous so while your price might be reasonable, people aren't looking for reasonable, they want bargain. I can vouch that its not just the 8. I have a focus that I am trying to sell and I have gone from mid to low price range, to mid, to bargain. And it wasnt until I got to bargain that I started to even get calls.

Good Luck

Andrew

Imagine how hard it's going to be to sell a Banana Yellow car in this market?

Hardly anyone wanted one when they were new......

The price of bananas is at $10.90 a kg here in Queensland and they are hard to get a hold off, as the LIGHTINING YELLOW RX8 will be in the future

However poverty pack Red / Blue ones are as ordinary as blades of grass , and i am not talking about the $ 400.00 a gram variety

As a yellow owner I will simply wait for the right buyer. Considering it has 20's on it has the Piggy Back ECG and sports exhaust I think I will put it in the Punchbowl Times or in the Bankstown Advocate.

Should sell very quick there

No mate, they'll just find out where you live and pinch it.

Had to laugh last night. One of the Footy Show buffoons was on some train full of Aussies heading to that World Cup match. He found some blokes from Bankstown and reassured us that if we couldn't win the Cup they could always nick it instead.

I think I know someone selling a LY. Wonder how he's going? I understand he's developed an interest in Polo.

I suggest the rims you're running narrows the available market even further. Plenty of people aren't into the Chromey look. Maybe try fitting the stocks again?

Exactly. This is why we haven't bothered to trade in our family truckster. Resale is crap across the board these days, unless you're sitting on serious metal like a Ferrari.

There was a bit of a debate on the .au site about whether depreciation or fuel cost was the bigger hit long-term. Not sure if my mathematical ability allowed me to follow the learned responses but I sure as hell know this - both aren't getting any easier. That new car smell may be reserved for the rich in years to come.

Honestly guys its so simple to trade these wheels in for stockies or even get another set that the purchaser would like, i deal with wheels every other day of the week, youd swap these 20in wheels for any set of 18s or 19s easy.
or even sell them for cash on trading post.
