Well, I finally did it...

I put my beloved MINI up for sell on Yahoo. I need to get back to grad school, and I don't want to wait another 3 and a half years to pay off Simon. I've been putting it off and putting it off and putting it off. I feel like I'm letting a friend down. What it is with these cars?! I'll have another MINI someday.

It may hurt now but a good move for the long run. I hope he goes to a good home.
There will always be cars to love, but you need the education to get the job to pay for those cars. (If so inclined. I know school is not for everyone.)

Thank you for the kind comments. This forum has been really good to me over the past year and a half. I've had the car listed on yahoo and cars.com for almost two weeks. The Blue Book is $22, 750, but that doesn't include some of the options and the few mods I've added. I'm asking $21,950...is this too high? I might have held on to the car longer than I should have, but I really didn't want to get rid of it. I'm wondering if the value has gone down significantly. I started considering selling the MINI this past summer. I went into a dealership in September, and they offered me $20,000 for it. Has the value of my MINI dropped a lot since then? Is it just a bad time of year to be selling a car? Do I need to drop the price to sell it? Thank you for any advice.

Seth
