Don't need to sell at all so I'm not super flexible on the price. Don't want to take a big loss here. Only reason I am considering selling is because I spend a lot of time in Western New York in the winters and I'm afraid it will just be too impractical. I also find the suspension a little stiff for that 600 mile trip.

The car has 3500 miles (hasn't had its first oil change) and has no issues besides the cricket chirp. Mostly highway miles. I walk to school but I have made that trip back to NY twice now. As base as these cars get. Asking $23,000. Again, I don't want to take a big loss here. I realize this isn't saving much over MSRP, but it is definitely a bit of a savings and you might save on tax depending how your state does things. Title does have a lien but I owe about $18,000 on it. Would consider a partial trade for a 4x4 truck or WRX. I'd also be willing to travel to deliver the car within reason, and I'd travel relatively far if a trade was involved.

Sorry I only really have one picture, but we all know what a stock FR-S looks like!

You can't trade a car you owe money on. You would either have to pay it off, or have someone take over the loan. There are alot of issues that arise if you try to trade a car you have a loan on.

Sure you can. As I stated in the ad, I owe about $18k. I would take a trade + cash which would involve the buyer giving me enough cash to pay off the remaining balance on the loan. No issue there. If the buyer wants to trade a vehicle for the difference in price between what I'm asking and what I owe, they are also free to take over the loan if that's what they choose to do. There would really only be an issue if I owed more or the same as the car's value, which is not the case here.

Edit: But your are right. I should have made it more clear that if a buyer is interested in a trade, they should really only make an offer if the trades value is in the $6500 or less ballpark.

Edited price. This will be the only price drop.

Will consider all trades and offers. Car now has about 4500 miles on it and some light scuffs on the passengers side rocker panel (not really too visible unless you get underneath the car). Can get pictures for anyone interested. I also just mounted good condition Blizzak WS70 snow tires. Stock tires will be included.
