I found a cab (actually, two) I really want to buy and don't want to own two at the same time. It's definitely the wrong time to sell and I've had a bunch of people interested, but no dough. I suspect I'll just ship it down to Florida in January and then sell it when I return in April.

Edit: Lot of people say 'my house, car, etc. is worth $X' but the reality is that it's ever only worth what a buyer will pay. Whenever I really want to sell something, I just keep lowering the price until it sells.

+1. However, it all depends how low you are happy on settling. I remember selling my Olds 442 because I wanted to get something else at the time but I often think back regretting having sold it for the amount I got for it. It was definitely worth a lot more.

Easier to ask for forgiveness then to ask for permission.....if you can afford it, go for it...
and buy her a really really nice Christmas gift.

Especially with a daughter with a newly minted G2 bugging the crap out of me for a new truck and the wifey angling for either 335 cab or an SL.

I know...when you take the no duty or GST into account, that's only like 105K cdn -- gotta start building business case!

In all seriousness, its not really the wife, another car would mean we have 4 cars for 2 people and that is a bit over the top.

Take your car spend some money on a chip exhaust and diverter valves, and trust me you will not want any other car. Huge ROI
