Under 5k miles. Didn't enjoy it much! There's another for $65k.

Default its not the same car......

That was my car on eBay and bidding was at $48k when I ended it early because the car sold! In the two prior auctions bidding went to $54k and $55k respectively. I never expected to sell the car on eBay because I was not willing to give it away. eBay is great advertising but unless you are willing to sell the car for a wholesale value I wouldn't expect to sell it. Unless or course its a very rare highly sought after car and then I've seen them go for big money.

The individual selling the $75k car is NOT $20k high, he's about $11k high. Some people like to think they're an expert when it comes to what the 03 S8 cars should bring. I just sold my 03 S8 and could sell another if I had one for the same or more money then I got for mine!

Why do you guys want the value of these wonderful cars to drop so significantly? Well, if you're looking to buy one I guess I understand. But why the rest of you?

my $.02 worth.
