Frustrated- how do YOU price out your car when selling?

I am in the process of upgrading (?) to a 430 from my 360. I am really at a loss here, I don't know what to do.

1) When pricing out your car for sale, do you price it the same across all media? (eBay same price as Craigs List same price as DuPont etc)

2) What is wrong with people? I priced my car high on the market (27K miles, I had it up for sale for $79K) and got a TON of traffic and bites, but no buyers. I priced my car VERY aggressively for about 2 weeks, just was getting anxious at that time to sell. I had people offering absurd prices (30% off asking price)when it was low. So, where were these people when it was just "priced well?" (It was a $10,000 swing, and I was getting offers of $40,000 for a car which has a $66K Manheim run rate.

I truly don't think that 90% of the offers I received were real, anyway. But I don't want to blow people off in case they are real, and have a real offer.

I am an amateur licensed dealer and have never, EVER experienced this type of behavior and odd pricing dilemmas with other cars. Granted, I mostly play with M5, AMG cars, high-end Vettes, 911s, Vipers, M3 and unique "fun" vehicles. But when a guy hits me up for an M3, he pretty well knows what it's worth and generally has the means/ability to pay for it if the deal is right. I flip 5-10 cars a year at most, so I am no expert.

(This Ferrari is not a flipper, per se)

3) Would having the ability to "finance" it draw more buyers? I don't owe anything on the car, so I could in theory finance it to the right buyer.

I'm really getting bummed on flipping these high end exotics, this is not for dummies like me.

 

No it does not. Car has been in an accident.

 

Yes, if I own it I can choose to let someone make retail installment payments without having to get a lender's license. If someone else owns it (a bank, leasing company, repo place etc) then I could not finance it.

 

The dealership who installed the brakes on the car failed to latch the hood after doing something under the bonnet. At 45 MPH the hood flew open and smashed it up pretty good. The fenders got "pulled in" from the force and had to be painted (as explained to me by Cavallino Body Shop in Palo Alto) and they had to blend the paint to get the color "flop" or whatever it is to match through the doors. Hood was replaced with OEM. To be honest with you I wish I would have just replaced the hood and covered it in a 3M type product so that it didn't require such massive repainting and blending, instead of trying to blend the whole front of the car. All records and receipts for that are on hand, but it's never been through a PPI from a prospective buyer. I have a stack of documents and paperwork 2" thick from all of the maintenance and service on the car. It's about as well documented a car as you can get.

The accident is of course disclosed to the buyer, even though it doesn't show up anywhere on Carfax.
