    Ebay is the best buy for targeted advertising. Many, many more cars sell because of Ebay exposure than sell on Ebay.

    Next best are the marque-specific classifieds often sponsored by clubs or sites. Do a search for other similar cars for sale and you might find some less than obvious places to post it.

    http://www.rallyclassified.com/ is another place that a lot of hardcore enthusiasts check regularly, but might not be your direct market.

    Good luck!

    So....waiting for your mom to die before you buy another one? Ownership isn't the point here. If you weren't chronically daft, you'd understand that.

    You might try selling your car here:

    Karen,

    Ignore the ******. Some people are just not worth wasting your breath on. And he is one of them.

    You might consider listing the car in Hemmings. Autotrader seems to be pretty popular these days. Ebay could be a good way to go, but there are just so many scammers and goof-balls bidding on cars there these days, I'd be concerned about trying to sell something there, especially as specialized as your RX.

    Regards,
    Steve

    You could sell it to your neighbor. That way you could be surprised and shocked when you see it again, and post here every time that happens

    Post some pictures of the car, maybe someone here is interested in it. Also, try looking at Mautofied.com; its a classifieds site dedicated to customs.

    Yes Karen, ignore Korr. He obviously has a condition of some sort, or forgot to take his medication today.

    As for selling your car, if not on Ebay, then try a publication like Old Car Trader, or Sports & Custom Car Trader.

    Steve, what you don't understand is that Karen here has a long-standing habit of posting anything and everything in the "Ferrari Discussion" forum and then leaving it up to the moderators to clean up and put her posts where they belong.

    I thought she had her post in the "off the topic" cars, motorcycles, boats, and planes section. I know i only have a college education, but i thought this post was placed in the right forum.

    You must have missed my post #15 in this thread. I moved this thread here from the "Ferrari Discussion" forum.
