72 INKA Pricing Help

[jp5Touring]

This one went for 50k.   The exterior paint is almost perfect with a well done interior the rest of the car was average with

a black painted engine compartment and black trunk.

I may be off with my 30-35K prediction; I'm certainly no expert. What strikes me about the BaT crowd is they don't seem to know much about our cars. Rust is a minor issue, rubber gets better with age, and shiny paint is a reflection of how well the Germans built them. The majority emphasize rareness as a virtue, seem to view the 02 market as Porsche 911 circa 2000, and feel ownership will return their youth. You have set-up your car exactly as most of us would want (mine is 90% there), but we are not the average bidder. 

 

Having said all that, I intend to drive and freely park my car with it's flawed paint for a few more years. Then it's a paint job and an appearance on BaT ?.

Georges, thank you and agree with your statements about BAT, in fact laughing to myself while reading it. Appreciate you replying back.

 

Jp5, I had been following those, in fact that market place has more than once left me confused. Just don't think I'm going that route. Will try to come up with a good price for me and buyer, list on forums, cca and maybe ebay just for the views. Thx

The real star of this show is that garage.

Looks like a commercial shop to me, not a personal garage.

I think I would only sell to an in-person buyer. This car is authentic but has flaws that are hidden by a camera. I wouldn't want to sell for a few more bucks and then have someone unhappy.

I very much respect this point of view, good for you.  And while I also think somewhere in the 40s is a reasonable estimate with the current market, I'll still share my opinion to: JUST KEEP IT!

The 72 has been sold and is at it's new home

My best
