Selling my baby. GTUs

The time has finally come, unfortunately. I need to sell my car that has been garaged and not used for the last decade. It has 102k on it.

The engine is a bone stock Mazda reman with very few miles. Feel free to message me with any questions.

Oh, my goodness. I have been watching the auction all week and flirted with the idea of bidding. When I got the alert the auction was ending, I was completely blown away by the price. Please let us know if that sale indeed goes through at that price. While I personally think that is too much money, I would certainly not mind a shift in FC prices.

Get them while they are still cheap. 10 years from now the prices we are paying will seem like a steal for all original preserved examples like this one. I would have no problem paying over $10k right now for a low mileage original GTUs.

I just read what I wrote: "I sell parts for a living but when it comes to cars, I'm a complete newb". Ha ha! I should have said, SELLING cars, since I have done almost nothing but Mazda stuff for a living my whole life including being a Mazda tech.

The 'winner' of the auction never materialized so it is back on the market:

Im not tryin to threadcrap but there is no way that is goin to sell for $15k. It's looks to be in very nice shape but still not 15k.

Dang! If it sold for 15k I was going to say I screwed myself and should have restored mine! Best of luck, the GTUs is a great choice!

Well, hmmm. Hopefully you can get it sold for real this time. It appears to be a very nice car and deserves a home where someone will leave it alone for the most part.
