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.

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.

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.

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