Out of province..gives you leeway to possibly snag a good deal (if red is your color).

^ Incorrect mileage discussed earlier.... shady dealer tactics...

That is a nice S4 and I'm sure it is wonderful to drive. I can't get over the rate that Audi's depreciate (and likely other luxury German brands).

A friend of mine bought an 09 A4 brand new in 08 with S line bits and still has it. $60k CAD with taxes, PDI, delivery etc. Maybe 80k on it now. It got hit on the driver side rear door and quarter panel and was repaired ($25k or so damage) so worth even less. The car is probably worth maybe $12-15000 now.

I know most car lose value over time but that is a serious drain on capital.

20000 car wash and 20000 photographer

In other news just received a deposit on my 993 from a buyer in Oregon (pending PPI Monday @ Forward Automotive). There is another USA buyer and two euro buyers who want the results as well if the first buyer passes. One person came from Vancouver to drive it and made a solid offer then suddenly got cold feet. I hope the PPI goes well.

Need some help regarding the sale though. The buyer who put the deposit down did so before we have even agreed on a purchase price. (I provided my email address and let him know that was my pay pal address as well for a deposit early on.

He wants to find out the results of the PPI before making an offer. I have a line up of buyers so I was clear from the beginning that I am not straying far off my asking. If he doesn't offer enough money I can say no and if he doesn't come up to my price I can return the deposit and move on to the next buyer correct?

It's 100% reasonable to move on to the next buyer and refund the money. You aren't obligated to sell at a price you didn't agree on.

Yea I remember the dealership showing me the original invoice when I bought it.
It literally had every option box checked
Including the rear seat entertainment that I never used

Actually now I'm doing a bit of research i might be wrong on that
Likely is around 70 to 80 cause I think a base fx 45 was around 65 Canadian.
