Car is still available. Personally quite shocked there has been very little interest other than a handful of low balls in almost a year and a half.

Everyone has an opinion- one owner, that’s great.
Mods maybe are hurting it for the purist.I like the anniversary cars but you either like them or you don’t.
Seems like there’s no middle ground.
I think $28k is all the money for that car.
But, you know what they say about opinions...
It’s a nice piece.GLWS.

I’m actually surprised that you’re getting lowballed. It seems to me it’s mildly modded, and is a coupe. I bought a 9200 mile vert in aug, mildly modded, and paid 29000. I thought I got a deal. It will sell. Don’t budge on your price.

I'm also somewhat surprised you haven't sold the car. I don't feel your price is unreasonable considering it's an 10th Anniversary, low miles, nice condition, and lightly modded. If I were in the market for such a car, I would definitely give it serious consideration. Sure everyone wants a deal, but we're only talking a few thousand dollars difference between your asking price, and a quick sale. There are definitely not a lot of similar cars to choose from these days!

If you haven't already, list it on Facebook (not sure which groups?) and also Ebay... It will eventually sell in my opinion.

The only thing I can see hurting this car is the color being that black was so widely produced on these cars. Looking at it from my perspective as a buyer a year from now if this was Torch Red I would be all over it. But colors are a matter of personal preference as well, some people really love and want a black one it's just finding that right buyer.

Be careful with Ebay there is a 10% seller fee and pay pal fees on top of that as well. I got hosed when selling my CBR 600RR on there 2 yrs ago. Id look more into sites like autotrader, Carfax, FB Groups to get more eyes on the car more so than Ebay.

Ill second what a few others have said, fb forums are very active and have helped me sell two sb coupes last year. It maybe the color that’s holding some back from owning this gem or just the time of year.

Ebay only charges $95 flat fee for a 30 day listing. Paypal charges fees, but why would you pay someone through paypal?

Also 2 questions. You say no chips on the bumper; Does it have clear bra protecting it? If not, how could it be possible there are no rock chips? My other question is, did someone really balance those rims using wheel weights on the outside?

If you still have this vehicle next year when I’m back in the states, I’ll buy this vehicle. Cash buyer and I won’t waste your time. Currently the military has me away from home at the moment. 100% serious non low ball buyer

They charge a 10% fee on what you sell there. I specifically called asked if this was the same for motorcycles as this is what it said for automobies. They told me it was not the same for motorcycles but that was a lie. I was charged $500 on a sale of $5000. I'm speaking from experience I'm not making it up.

I am finally in the market but have been watching the terminators for 6 months plus on multiple sites. I finally just joined this site vs lurking because the terminator action seems to be heavier on this site than other forums. Honesty, I think the price is just too high for what you have. It is your Dad's prerogative on sitting on the car for a year and a half vs taking an offer of 27 or 28K. He is still paying insurance, should be doing maintenance, etc. so that is a cost vs dropping the price and off loading the car. My opinion is if you want 31K, as a collector I would want lower miles and completely bone stock. If I was an enthusiast, the miles are fine but I would expect more mods for that price. There are a bunch of higher priced cars advertised online BUT they are just sitting and not moving. So you can put a crazy price out there but I can tell you the ones on the car sites have been just sitting for months and months because I have been watching. One other thing that may be holding some back is getting financing. I am paying cash but if you look at NADA on these cars, it is complete shit vs other sites but I know my bank and credit union uses NADA. Again it is just my opinion of what I am looking for and also what I have been seeing over the past 6 months. It is still a great car and you may get that one person but it may take you a couple years so that will have to be your Dad's decision on what he wants to do.

Appreciate all the feedback. As the original posts says he isn't "actively selling" the car. If someone comes and offers the price listed (which I don't think is absurdly high), great if not he has no problem hanging onto it. We haven't listed it on CL, FB, eBay, autotrader, etc. This is the only listing based on the congregation of SVT lovers.

If I didn't live in downtown Boston with no garage parking, it would be my car.
