My point was that being a used car shouldn’t always be a reason to discount a vehicle’s value. Like you said yourself, rarity, market and appeal also play a strong part in a vehicle’s selling price.

No need to get your panties in a bunch. I said in his FS thread that the car was beautiful and a great deal. There should be no reason for you to get defensive for him.

Also; I agree, grandpas and soccer moms can have nice cars too…
