Sharp 1996 in Philadelphia Area - needs transmission work
I feel like crap for letting her go, but the auction begins tomorrow night. I'll attach real link when the auction is activated.
What a great run with this car! I thoroughly enjoyed her and you guys. Hopefully someone will keep her intact (I will not break her up) and get her to another Reading meet!!! When I get my 3 car garage, I'll be back for an SVX to keep my S5 company!!! PM or e-mail me any questions. -Dave

Re: Sharp 1996 in Philadelphia Area - needs transmission work
No criticism intended, but is there a reason you didn't offer it for sale here before putting it on ebay? (Not that I could buy it being clear out in Utah...)

Re: Sharp 1996 in Philadelphia Area - needs transmission work
That is a fair question!
By posting a preview of the auction 24 hours before it started, I was giving members a heads-up that the general public doesn't get and welcome any offers. Ebay reaches an audience of millions versus hundreds, so, to maximize exposure I am using them. Interestingly enough, way before I ever heard of the SVX Network, I found my first SVX - on Ebay. the Network has made owning the car an even better experience. I welcome any offer for consideration!

Re: Sharp 1996 in Philadelphia Area - needs transmission work
If you felt a disturbance in the force, it was my transmission forgetting how to operate!

Re: Sharp 1996 in Philadelphia Area - needs transmission work
I used to sell a lot of cars on ebay, but have really reduced the amount lately. Ebay buyers seem to have extremely high expectations for used cars when compared to buyers from any other website. I believe this is because they know they can use the feedback system to leverage after-sale compensation.

Re: Sharp 1996 in Philadelphia Area - needs transmission work
I was thinking the same thing....Tomato's Grille, Hood, Transmission, Redd's body, interior, sound system, spare engine.

Re: Sharp 1996 in Philadelphia Area - needs transmission work
I had chatted with OT about that as well and it was definitly an option until I started my new job with my company and discovered that a number of east coast site visits were involved. My new S5 Prestige is up to the task.
Someone is going to end up with a hell of a deal on my '96 Redd! The problem may be as minor as a new XMSN pump. I drove the car around the neighborhood today - and all gears worked for the 10 minute run.
