Hi, I agree with some of the responses, but not in all areas. I don't consider the mileage on your car excessive. I've got 112K on my 90 turbo. The issue is that when anything gets above 100K, there's a psychological disadvantage. You can sell a car at 99K and the buyer will still think of it differently than when the odo starts ticking off the hundreds column. If you sell it yourself, it seems like you could get something closer to the $5K range considering how nice you say the car is. That also depends on what geographic area you live in. Dealers start at wholesale and then start deducting from there. Also consider that starting in about a couple of weeks, buyers and prices will be deflated until spring. Good luck, Mike Z.
