You really think it might be worth more? I had a few offers for 5 or 600 and the highest I've had is one guy who would absolutely not go above $1k. I'd love to see it go to an AIer though, my baby deserves obsessive care.

I have your asking price sitting in my nightstand drawer from my aborted Comanche purchase, I'd take that CRX in a heartbeat.

It looked spectacular in the autotrader ad, and the carfax was perfect. I didn't test drive it because I knew I wouldn't be able to say no.

What's even better is that one appears to be a 70's designer car, found through some wikisperging : "The Givenchy Edition was in aqua blue. The external finish was aqua blue "Diamond Fire" paint, with a white "Normande Grain" landau vinyl roof, black and white pinstriping, and white or aqua blue bodyside moldings. The interior was in aqua blue cloth or leather, and the instrument panel was in a special, lighter shade of simulated woodgrain. The Givenchy color was aqua blue in 1976, dark jade green in 1977 and 78, and crystal blue in 1979." 7.5 liters... five hunnert harsepawer... MPG and HP at wheels don't ask don't tell

You don't even need that many gears because of the huge amounts of torque and short race. Also, to not be discounted, is that automatics, when staged properly on the strip, will shock the drive train less on the launch because of the pre-load. This will typically result in less wear and tear.

One scenario where I can see it being somewhat understandable is when you have to repost an ad, which you've already written. CL let's you edit it, so the least amounnt of work you can do is edit the "I won't take less than this price." This way anyone who actually sees your ad gets a bit of psychological luring when they see the gap.
