I sold my car in 10 days and thought I would share some insight with other prospective sellers.
Before you advertise your NSX for sale you should...
1) Repair any items that are non-functional such as CCU, speakers, hatch struts etc. Its better to have everything fully functional. It's worth the time and energy to make sure everything works! It seems like there are a lot of cars for sale that needs this or that...
2) Make sure your maintenance is up to date and gather all your maintenance records so you can share them with prospective buyers. That way you can scan records and email them if necessary. This is one of the most important things when buying an NSX!
3) Be sure the tires have good tread on them. A lot of buyers are out of state and may want to drive it home and if the tires are worn then it will become an issue.
4) Remove your mods. Modding the NSX will limit your pool of interested buyers. People have different taste when it comes to mods. You will also recoup much more money if you sell your mods separately.
5) Clean the car inside and out. A good coat of wax really shows. Fresh vacuum marks on the mats helps also. It shows how much you care about the car. It amazes me when I see a car for sale with pictures of the interior with dirty floormats.
6) Take high resolution pictures! If you don't have a camera, then I suggest that you borrow one from a friend. Cell phone pics don't cut it. Take pictures in an area with some nice scenery. Try some in the shade and some in the sun. Take several from different angles. You can decide later which ones you like best for your advertisement.
7) Determine the best price. Research all the car websites along with the marketplace here on prime and see what other cars are for sale that might be comparable to yours.
When placing your Ad...
1) Its worth mentioning why you are selling and how long you have owned the car. More information is better!
2) List all the maintenance that you have done on the car. Not just the mileage...its the date that usually matters. I see this all the time where people just note the mileage for maintenance items.
3)Put as much detail in your ad as you can. I created a MS Word document and slowly added information as it became available and later cut and pasted it into the ad to make it easy.
4)Give out your cell phone number! You want people to get a hold of you, not email or an answering machine.
These may seem like common sense but I wanted to share what worked for me.
Good Luck!
