Default Finally selling the 01 Accord

Time to get the youngest son a new car for Graduation from college. Thank God he wants a Honda 2006 EX-V6 6 Speed for him. (I'm paying up to $18k and he foots the rest).

I looked it up on Kelly Blue Book, and an 01 EX V-6 with 152k private party sale, Excellent condition goes for $9700, and dealer Retail is $12,000. I plan to advertise it for $9200.

It's in top condition, and I hate to part with it (really, my 06 sits in the garage!). Never any damage, and the engine compartment is clean! Always Synthetic oil, and last oil analysis showed no wearing. It uses no oil between changes.

Sound like a reasonable price? Now to just deal with the idiot calls when I advertise it.

Hey, when I was selling the '91, I had a guy offer me $500 for it. I sold it for $2200

You wouldn't happen to be looking to adopt another son? Would
41 be too old?

I want the money for the Down Payment on the new one. Again, I have a new 2006. I was going to sell it when I got the '06, but I just couldn't do it

This was always the plan...but now that the time is here

They clearly also didn't teach you proper grammar. It's paid

When I'm out of college I'll probably be making more than my dad, I should be buying him a new car for paying for my first semester a couple years back :rofl:

Wow! My parents got me a pen and pencil set for graduation from the university.

I'd have been thrilled to get your old '01!
