I’d ask $4500, take $3000.

Make it a KitKat and you got a deal

That’s actually really nice.

I have a hard time selling anything that is not a piece of shit.

Anywhere from 4 to 7k depending on how fast you want to sell it.

Is that the digital arm wrestler package? Adds an instant $3,000 to the price.

I have some bad news for you, one of your doors is now a glass storage container.

Were you aware?

$4,300.

Make sure to include that it was never used as a livery car or taxi.

Seems a bit low. It’s a friend’s car.

Kind of what I was thinking. Ask $5,500 and hope for north of $4,000.

That’s about where I am. I think that if it were ever used that way, the mileage would be much higher and the general condition would be much worse.

Excellent point taken!

Five-and-a-half would be nice. I am selling the car for a friend who needs the dough.

On your odometer pic, the car shows the warning that your is a jar...

The door is not a jar, it’s a f#$king DOOR!

Thank you for pointing that out. The Oppos are being very helpful today (some of them...).

I don’t know, your car seems to think you’re canning tomatoes and need to store them.

Yes, for $6,000, and you can keep the car.

5k.

105000miles/13years of age = 8k.

8k -the 9 letters in signature = -1k

-1k+ 7 letters in Town Car= 6k.

6k- the one missing point in the quality chart = 5k

Logic. Of course there is the whole Lincoln thing so:

Lincoln/2 = 3.5 letters

Start at 5k, but allow for about 3.5k of negotiations.

It's probably about right for the miles. They're neither rare nor sought after. Basic transportation value plus about 50% is probably all you'd see for it.

You’re selling for a friend? That’s a cause for concern for most buyers on CL.

My friend hopes for $4k. I’d like to see her get a little bit more than that, but I doubt it’ll fetch $5k. Funny how that goes; seems like a lot of car for the money, but then again, I wouldn’t want it.

Not something I’d put in the listing. The owner is a single mom and not comfortable interviewing with potential customers. It’s certainly something I would understand if I were looking at a used car. She’ll have to come around to sign the papers and whatever.

I wouldn’t want it either.

I love that this car sports a digital odometer that shows tenths of a mile. My understanding is that my Lincoln loses the tenths starting at 100k miles.

So a door is also a jar? I’m confused...

The door is not ajar, the door is a f@#$ing DOOR.

This fender chrome cuts the value to $500 to me. Never liked Town Cars with that fender chrome...

Quite alright. I just need to facilitate the sale for a non-native English speaking single mother friend of mine. I don’t care much for the car either.
