So a guy waves me down at a stop light about two weeks ago, asks if I'm interested in selling my car. I tell him if the offer is right, I might be.
Ironically, I was thinking of trading her in to get a more fuel efficient car for my new job (which requires a lot of driving), so I gave him my business card and told him to call me.
The car in question is a Red '05 with 89k miles, first owner, no accidents; but it has the bad red paint problem... peeling, etc.
He offers me $5000, but turns out he wants to export it to Mexico. I told him I'll need to get a new title for the car, because it got lost when I moved last year. He said that he doesn't need a title, that he will give me a bill of sale and 'that will be enough' since he is exporting it anyhow.
Up until he said I didn't need to transfer the title, I was interested in going forward.. now I'm not so sure. I mean, the price is right, I doubt I would get that much from a dealer trade in.
So I'm asking what you guys think?
