to answer your survey, i think a lot of it is, that the economy sucks and people are afraid to spend their money if they have it, or they are barely able to make bills. Layoffs are increasing and hiring is almost standstill. That is probably the biggest issue.

also, are you on coloradomazdaclub.com?

itcanadian · 01-28-2009, 09:34 PM

Yeah. Thanks for the feed back, I recognize the economical issues are definitely going to affect my immediate success, I'm ready to hold out though until the right buyer pops up.

In reference to coloradomazdaclub, yes I am a member and I have this listed there also. I've done some work to spread out word to meet a number of demographics in hopes that it will help the sale. This is also posted on craigslist and Westword online classifieds.

Thanks for the feed back!

It is a nice 8 in all, but I votes 'priced too high' because I can get a White Shinka at the local dealer right now for $17K with 10,000 miles.

Sorry, and good luck!

itcanadian · 01-29-2009, 08:49 PM

Thanks for the feed back. I'm standing strong, but not inflexible, where I have it priced now. I see them in my area going for $20k+, and there are others on the web in the same range. Blue book for these is right around $20k, so anything much cheaper and I have to wonder why they are priced so cheap (previous damage, maybe not totaled but some other history that decreases the value). This is a great car and I'm confident it will move.

itcanadian · 01-30-2009, 06:43 PM

A Carfax report is now available for this vehicle and I provided the VIN in the original message.

itcanadian · 01-31-2009, 10:33 AM

Only Mods/Admins can change the thread title so it appears as such in the forums. I took care of it for you, and deleted your original thread per your request.

KBB.com prices cars too high. Try www.nadaguides.com for a more realistic value. My 04 is listed for around $10k.
