You need to go national in autotrader. I was a sales manager for them in the early 90's. You need to appeal to other markets outside of yours..is florida non rusted(im talking suspension and exhaust, the underside of nothern market cars are terrible) perfectly maintained, garaged kept, non smoker. Mpg, carfax, maintenance records. Wont find a nicer 05 for better price. Havent you replaced your airsprings too? I will have a xjr for my next jag, but right now that money will pay for my 40x60 shop.
Remember that 19k in your market might be okay, or high or low in others. Someone can pickup and or ship for your cars price over say new york or cali prices.

Bought my xkr on autotrader last year from Michigan and had it shipped to NC. I also sold my Tundra on autotrader---like the man says it only takes one buyer. Give it time---some people my only check on the weekends.

It's a nearly perfect by God 5 footer Fl car, whisper quiet. meticulously maintained- cost no object, always garaged, metallic slate grey paint, black interior, $1400 in new tires. Every last thing works well and it will do 27+ mpg which I mention only to describe it's state of tune. 65,000 old guy Florada miles.


PS: 1st $19,000 gets it. "Firm" You won't find a better one and it's priced to sell..

Track them on Eboy and see what they are bringing and see the 'completed listings' also.

My add on AutoTrader is getting 10 to 15 hits a day. I am 26 miles outside the metro Orlando Mkt. and I thought that was pretty good. Then I looked at the hits big city dealer adds get. Wow! What a let down for me.
Anyway, we have 2 parties nibbling at the cheese. Nothing serious yet. I would like to be in an XK by year end. What I would really like is to keep this XJR and add an XK to my Stable. Not going to happen.
Hard to believe but my XJR is faster than the base XK I am looking for. What the hell am I doing?

Well understand you but just in my dream. In the reality i won't buy it for my own desire.







The p90x workout schedule is an incredibly popular home-based, boot camp-style video exercise program that some fitness fanatics swear by. But does it do the job? A study of the system finds it does improve cardio respiratory function. T

Another key feature is that most embers of forums cars are well kept w/less/no deferred maintenance-need to push that fact with service history. I've not pulled the trigger on one as at the last minute, I just envision the online dealer using chewing gum to hold it together until it ships. Show me receipts and I'm going to the bank.

Gone but not forgotten. The most refined best sorted out car I have owned. My old 05 Dodge Ram came a close second.

I could not sell the XJR in the allotted time and a killer deal came through on the 07 XK Coupe I've been waiting for.

Please share what kind of deal you ended up with and pics too, please.

And oddly enough, I like Rams too. Have had two, including the 07 I have now.

so did you end up trading it for the 07? If so, I bet you didn't all of that $19k you were hoping for. Enjoy the new coupe! In the summer, you'll wish it was a soft top. Speed isn't as important when your looking out at all those stars.

I spent New Years in Eustis-forgot you were from there. Would have stopped by for a hello.
