With that I can agree. I don't like telling people "your car is worth X": 1) I don't really know their market and 2) some
people find it insulting (which is never my intent).
Again, I DON'T know your market, but around here Miata's seem to display a clear market behavior: if they are pristine
(mileage is almost irrelevant) they go for well over Blue Book, Edmunds TMV, whatever - and the damned things SELL at those costs.
If they are less than perfect they T A N K big time and aren't worth the online ad to sell'em! And, of course, winter isn't a
high-season for sports cars besides.
I'm not saying any of this necessarily applies to you, Suzy, but I'd understand if it did :(
I hope we're wrong, of course, but then again, maybe you should just keep it and run it into the ground ;) It sounds like
you like it and I forgot the original reason for your selling.
