Contour Enthusiasts Group Archives Forums Branches E. Great Lakes Offer on my car.....

So wed night we had a ton of guys come up to Mt Clemens and we had soooo much fun knauberizing cars....anyway, to make a long story short just before i was leaving a guy approached me and offered to buy my car. I told him it owuld have to be worth my while and so I was just wondering what you guys think I should do. I mean, this guy is a doctor and is buying it for his kid if I say yes. His kid is only 17 years old. I really dont know what to do. He mentioned the figure of around $24k but I told him that wouldnt be worth it because of all the money and time I've put into it. I just dont know what to do. Thanks for all your opinions and help in advance.

holy honkey that's a chunk o change for a 98.5.... I know what it's got and I think that's a good deal for you... but you need to go get a 2000 to replace it.

no!!!!! you didnt want to sell it before, dont sell it now! the kid will probably wreck it, he cant handle all that power. keep it.

tell him $35k and hey, if he bites . . .

dont sell it. if your like me you've prolly youve become attached to your car. and chances are this 17 year old kid is gonna think hes the shizznit in your phat ride and he didnt do anything to make it that way. not to mention he may not take care of the car they way you do! with all your hard work, you deserve to enjoy it!

No way, dont sell it, espicially if its for a 17 year old kid. I know how I drove when I was 17, and I wouldnt want me at the age driving my 'tour

All of you keep talking about how this guy's son can't handle it and he'd be too iresponsible, yet some (the ones who responded anyhow) of you are trying to tell me I should get one...? I'm 17 I mentioned earlier. To be honest, I've only driven a stick....I think four times now, and that was screwing around with my friends beat up tercel in parking lots and down coolidge, yet i still want the car!!!!!!!!!!!!!

RyeLou, I think they are talking about the fact that my car has recently been supercharged....but anyhow, my main ocncern is thatr I dont think I will ever see an offer like this again.

didnt jeff say something about you getting sponsored?

....yep i feel pretty stupid. that's bad s$$ that your car is supercharged. sorry i didn't know...i'm still the newbie. hey quick question, what are the best (for price with acceleration) mods to do right away? ...see i have this problem. some kid i know loosened the lug nuts and some other stuff on my car (tahts in the shop now cuz of him..) the guy called me and said both front tires were just about to fall off. the same kid broke into my car and ripped off my mirror. he had a modded Grand Am...but now has a F150 lightening. .....what's it gunna take to beat him? short of using your car anyhow, hehe.
