I am in no way thinking about selling my car, but im wondering, many of us are really attached to our cars. Lets say you wanted to sell it, and advertised your car at $15,000, and you get calls from 3 buyers.

Buyer #1 is a kind old man, with a real appreciation for porsches, known them his whole life, his father used to work as a porsche mechanic. He is about 60 years old, and wants to relive his dream before he dies, offers you $14,000.

Buyer #2 is 17 years old, shows up with his father, and must have the car, neither have any idea about porsches, but the kid just likes the way it looks. Offers the $15,000.

Buyer #3, humble man early 30's, shows up with a PPI mechanic, who reviews the car, gives it the pass, but only values it at $13,000 due to some mechanical issues, which are completely true, and lets be honest, you know the mechanic is right about the value of the car. The man who brought the mechanic has limited car knowlege, but wants to work on this car as a mechanic, and you can see the passion in his eyes for your car as a true work of art and stepping stone for appreciation and education of a true automobile.


Do you?
A) Sell it to buyer 1, the elderly man, who wants to live out his youth and take the 14k? You know its worth honestly $13k from the PPI mechanic of buyer 3? But you also know this old man probably won't live past the next valve adjustment the car will turn into a rust bucket. But at least you get an extra $1,000 than its worth?

B) Sell it to the snobby kid with the rich father for $15k knowing you're lucky to get that amount of money for the "cool car." But will probably end up letting off the throttle 2 days later in a tight turn after getting scared trying to impress his girlfriend... you know the rest. Eff him though, you ripped him off and got the $15k. He's a snob and deserves it. But wait, his father works hard for his money, can you really do that?

C) Sell it to the humble man in his 30's, who has a strong potential to be a real enthusiast, is willing to offer you the true value of the car,$13k, and you know your car has the potential of being loved for at least another 15 years? And if it's remotely possible, will love it more than you? Lets face it, you've had it 10 years.
