Im trying to convince the seller not to trade in his gts this week and sell it to me. Everything is looking good so far, i will probably take a drive up there tomorrow to put a deposit on it if he decides to go with me and not the dealership. The car is a 97 blue and white gts with 9 k miles. Has bellanger headers and 3 in exhaust and he is the original owner. Take a guess what i might be getting it for?

lol. what happen to all that talk about 30 to 35k? lol.. no free vipers out there I guess :)

you got that right, i didnt want to spend as much as i am but i realized that you get what you pay for and i dont want crap. I really wish i wasnt spending this much but i think im getting a lot for the money (granted i actually get the car).

Sounds like a great price to me. Good luck (inspect it) and have fun. Remember, point the tires straight when first flooring it! :drive:

This deal isnt looking too good at this point, i think he really wants to trade it in. Thats ok because i went and test drove/inspected an 01 rt10 that i put a deposit on today. I knew that the gts was too good to be true.

Some of the best deals are the ones that don't happen. Sorry for the cliche... Just think how happy the San Franciso Giants would be now if they had not signed Barry Zito, or if the Cardinals had not signed Mulder... etc., etc. Good luck with whatever you do. :) :drive: :)

:confused: Maybe I am missing something but "usually" you get a better price selling outright??? Cash on hand I found works out better in the end.:dunno:

I was thinking the same thing. I have never heard of a seller eager to trade a car in as opposed to selling it outright. Strange . . . .

Right, but the guy is probably getting the same amount or just under what he's trying to sell it for outright. The dealer will then turn around and try to sell the car for mid $40s or so.

Don't forget the tax savings and not having the headache of dealing with an individual buyer! (right CitySnake?!?!) ;)

The dealer is easier to work with on a trade in and is probably telling him that they will give a better deal on the new car with a trade in. Maybe throw him 1-2K extra?

my thoughts exactly. he is also using the tax loophole by applying the trade in to reduce the tax on the new purchase. do the math to what he is saving and up your price by that amount.

So, what happens with this RT? You put a deposit on it, and when will you receive it?

Re: If everything gose right for me tomorrow ill be getting a 97 gts blue/white with

The guy with the GTS ended up trading it in so i guess it was too good to be true. I will hopefully have the YELLOW rt10 by thursday or friday depending on fed ex's definition of "overnight". Im just waiting for a few details to get sorted so i can pick it up and register it the same day. I dont want to pick it up friday and not be able to drive it untill tuesday

Must cost a lot to FedEx a Viper.
At least you can use the box as a garage temporarily. :2tu:

don't forget there is a tax difference if he doesn't trade ... maybe the dealer will do an in and out for him?
