His and mine do not have high miles, they both have AVERAGE miles for a 2005.<br>(Regardless, yours is still to high an asking price for a private party sale)

So what car specific website should I be pricing towards? Looking at a any distance search on autotrader, it looks to me that for the miles I priced it appropriately...but thats true about the private party vs dealer prices. what's a good private party price for an 05 with 55k miles?

i think our prices may seem high because we're not pricing them at auction lane pricing. Autotrader and cars remain viable options because not everyone has inside information or does their research on how to access these prices. For marketplace transactions like Autotrader and cars.com it can be a patience game, and I think this pricing seems fair. That's the vicinity where my pricing was at -- the extra 2k is the warranty price (which is at least 2x to 3x now that it is over 50k mi).<br>Regarding the range in pricing, the variety of options, colors, 6mt vs gt etc available with our R's, it is my opinion that this supports a wide price window depending on what the perfect car is for the individual. I waited 2 months to find the option combo i have now. Regardless, I really hope that we all find success in selling and pass our vehicles onto eager buyers who will continue to enjoy the thrill and passion that R ownership brings.
