So I have the ST for sale on Autotrader...

I'm not sure how I got the BMW sold. I did put the ad up on Autotrader, but I also posted on various other forums and I think Craigslist. Right now, for the ST, I only have the Autotrader ad and the ad here on this forum.

That's less than a lot of the ST2's that are out there. I wish I was in the market, otherwise, I'd be all over it.

This is mine, less miles.

Was I close?

Someone else won the guessing game.

I must have lucked out, I sold my Astra on Autotrader in a week for just under asking price to real, actual people. I'm thinking about listing my current DD, but sounds like there isn't much incremental gain from paying to post on AT versus CL. Sad, I always hoped that AT would be a place for more serious buyers/sellers.

Oh, and I unfortunately let them upsell me on the full whiz-bang listing once and totally regretted it. Never again. At least I didn't sell the car and they refunded my money, but having their people calling me weekly asking how it's going, offering advice was just offensive to me.
