"Is it for sale?"

I just did some basic detailing to take a photoshoot of my Raven FRS. I drove down to a regular spot on PCH (HWY 101) and took a shot. A gentleman pulled up beside me and asked if the car was for sale.

I told him unfortunately no. Most likely never. He made a tiny frown. We talked for a few minutes. Found out he does photoshoots for sellers of automobiles and gave me a few tips.

I've been asked a few times about parting with the car. I don't wanna give the line, "Over my dead body", because it just might happen. I usually giggle and say no way jose.

Anyone else ever get asked if the car is for sale?

EDIT: sorry if this topic has already been discussed.

Only when the car was brand brand new and I was like one of 7 cars around.

Got offered 5K more than I paid but during that time I didn't want to deal with waiting even longer to get another one

I would have said yes, for the right price. I have sentimental attachments to all of my cars to one degree or another, but for enough money (and I wouldn't be too unreasonable) I would let any of them go.

Jokingly by the guys at work. They always say "You'd sell it for XX? Wouldn't you?". I always respomd with no. If a "serious" buyer expressed interest, I would politely tell them no as well.
