Tell him what your situation is and have him make the decision for you. Tell him you would prefer to keep it, but you will go through with the deal if he really wants it and can't find a different car. It's a 50/50 chance the car will still be sold, but you won't be the bad guy.

I've decided to do what I perceive is the right thing and complete the sale. I initially listed the car for sale because I have other needs for the money, and that hasn't really changed. I was getting caught up in the emotional aspect, and that's understandable but probably wrong. I know the buyer is very excited and has made all his arrangements, and I don't want to rain on his parade.
90% of the fun for me is in the search anyway - when I'm ready to get another one down the road I get to enjoy that all over again.
Thanks to all for your input - I appreciate the support.

As far as selling homes, cars, boats, motorcycles. talk is cheap. A verbal commitment from a potential buyer means absolutely nothing more, than at the time when emotional wants were high a statement was made that he would like to purchase your item. His feelings could change totally 10 minutes, 8 hours, a day, or a week later. It is understood in business that cash talks, and without a cash commitment, no offer is considered serious. It works both ways. If you have accepted no money, an offer to sell is no more than casual conversation. Follow your heart, and GL.

Ugh - thanks for all your insights. I'm torn - I did dream about this car for quite a while and found just what I wanted. However - I could use the money elsewhere and I really don't want to renege on my word. Even though I know the buyer could call today and walk away, I still feel obligated.
Is it okay if I just climb back in bed and hide under the covers for a while?

A deal is done when $$ changes hands. If he had given you a deposit I would say go through with it; if not be honest with the potential buyer before he has any $$ invested in travel, etc.
