My Reatta Drives: (Excellent/Good/Fair/Poor) Exc
I am the 2ND owner of this Reatta.
I have owned this Reatta for 3Years and 7 Months.
The ONLY reason I am selling is that I just obtained an ‘89 with 48,000 miles.
D-a-n-i-e-l, I have read most if not all of your posts - consider you to be a knowledgable and helpful forum member. As you can see on my "Sales Form" the TITLE is CLEAR, not salvage or other. I am the 2nd owner of this car. I set the price at what I feel is fair for a buyer as well as trying to move the car as I don't have room for 2 Reattae in my driveway.
I would have hoped that anyone would have the consideration to contact a fellow member before casting disparaging remarks regarding the sale of a vehicle.
I would have no problem in adding 2 or 3K to the price if you think it would sell faster.

I just think Daniel has a special way with words I don't think he meant to offend you. He said my car reminded him of his before the upgrades. I think they are considered modifications not upgrades. To each is his own. No biggy
RJ,
If you're really trying to sell it, I hope you advertise it somewhere else. I've tried to sell at this site, a '90 CA/AZ coupe with 79,000 on it, put it up for $3500, dropped it to $3200, got one request for pics and sent them but not a word out of that person. This time last month, while Barrett-Jackson was in town, I ran a classified in the AZ Republic (Phoenix's top paper), ten calls in the first two days, the first caller to look at it bought it, could have sold a half dozen. This hasn't been a good site for me for car sales, but a GREAT site for information, tips, and parts. I'll continue to use this site for all the help I've received and will receive in the future, just won't try to sell a car here (a problem may be that I'm unable to load pictures).
Good Luck,
Jim Too
