I'm out there shopping hard for a car. Mainly focusing on '10-'12 GT500, but looking at other similar vehicles. I want supercharged car with good power levels.
Anyway, I see LOTS and LOTS of cars for sale. But the asking prices for the vast majority seem wayyy overpriced to me.
How the heck do you value these cars??? For instance, here's one: http://www.ebay.com/itm/2010-Ford-Mustang-Shelby-GT-500-/291965485737?hash=item43fa7fc2a9:g:r90AAOSw2xRYSFmw&vxp=mtr&nma=true&si=jHyp7ID25lJqZYUlf4%2B8lOGD3GU%3D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557 on eBay that claims to have sold for $25,900. Yet if you search classifieds, you will regularly see similar cars listed at ~$35k.
Does anyone have any factual data on sales of vehicles like GT500's? Is the market strong or weak? Is it a buyers market or a sellers market right now??? If some guy is asking $35k for a $25k car, how do I make offer without insulting, how can I back up my claim that market value is $25k?
All opinions/comments welcome.
Thanks!
