Where and how to sell a "Needs Work" FR-S
 

Hi all! I just don't use my FR-S like I used to – life changes, need more trunk space (got a Crosstrek I love), etc. I created a For Sale post in the regional marketplace: https://www.ft86club.com/forums/show...ostcount=11764 but I'm not sure that's going to get any traction.

I don't really want to put it on AutoTrader.com or Cars.com as it needs some work and I'd like someone who knows the platform, but I also don't want to salvage or donate it (I mean if I get something from it that would be fine, but not like $100). It runs fine, it just needs some love.


Thanks for any feedback!

Oh, and I plan to return maybe in a few years after things settle down. There's no way this is forever! :) I've heard there are so many improvements and no other car looks even remotely interesting.

Craigslist and FB marketplace are probably your best bets here in NorCal. OfferUp is another option.

I feel like you should really have zero issues selling that car for $5,000 in the bay. Based on your listing, a good running car with <70K miles for 5k is an easy sell.

Ah yes Craigslist, thanks. My wife was joking about FB but they do sell pretty much anything! I could probably ask for more, it was just that work is involved that may take a few thousand $ to get it in nice condition and didn't want it to take forever.

Thanks and I'll see how it goes!

I also vote for fb. I sold all my old Miata parts there real easy

Half the Facebook ads I see on marketplace are cars that need attention. Yours looks minor compared to what I see lol

What about those ads with car parts? Some parts are very tempting

I've bought many of parts off marketplace over the years.

Exhaust bits, wheels etc :D

Shipped?
