Nobody's ever showed up. All talk about money, just to see how much I will devalue my car.

Not that I've had anything fast but I would let them drive it first, somewhere that I dictate, and then on the return trip I'd drive and show them more of what it's capable of.

I don't let anybody drive it unless they have cash or a check in hand.

Carl have you thought about taking it back to the track to get solid numbers? I believe that will help a car like yours sell.

Get it down into the 9's.. hmmmmm sounds temping, but @ 10.66 and almost 700hp should be evidence enough.

do you take them for a ride?

Carlrx7 06-28-2013 08:04 PM

Whether they drive it or ride in it, they need to at least need to show up and look at the car first!

This... when i sold the slowbra i took him for a ride in it with me driving. He then produced the cash and put it into my hand and then he drove it. I would never let someone drive a car that they don't own or haven't paid for. If its a 100hp car or 700 hp vette it wouldn't matter either way. Its tough to sell a highly modded car these days, just hold onto it Carl and someone will come along.

I'd be like "whats wrong with this heap?" Lol

Carlrx7 06-29-2013 11:02 AM

Believe it or not, NOT all car owners want a car that has been raced. I dont expect anyone on CHP to understand. lol

ForceFed4g63 06-29-2013 11:04 AM

I'm with Carl on this one lol

GreebeanZ28 06-29-2013 12:38 PM

True, but having track times close to it's full potential is what helped my Z06 sell.

very true.

BigdaddyDupree 06-29-2013 06:40 PM

But I still laugh at the people who want a fast car and ask what it ran and then say its been abused and they don't want it.jmd
