      best results i would think would happen around spring time.. hard to beauty like this in winter (at Christmas time no less) and realize the full value potential.

      Hang onto it till May/June and you’ll do much better. These cars just don’t move during the winter (sometimes literally — rain/snow + Viper = usual_disaster).

      Advertise as broadly as possible, with as many details and pics as possible, and count on it taking until next summer…unless you send it to Barrett Jackson!

      Since you aren’t planning on trading in, and if you can swing it, consider buying what you think you might like before selling the TA just in case it take a couple of attempts to find a worthy replacement 😉

      If you are the original owner, note it. Mention what might seem insignificant (if it applies)….do you have the owner’s manual, the duffel bag and car cover? Has the car been driven in the rain, smoked in, or tracked? You mention the recalls, do you have all the service records? Do you have the window sticker? Frame it and show potential buyers. Most buyers love details, lots of them. You have to make your car look and sound different than the others that are being advertised. White TA’s are very limited, harp on that. Take lots of pictures. If there aren’t chips, scratches or any other imperfections, mention it.

      Posting here is definitely a good start. I am sure you will get some PMs right away.

      Post it on a lot of different sites if you are very serious about selling it(eBay, auto trader, cars.com, craigslist, forums, Facebook Groups). I highly recommend throwing it up on the Viper Facebook Groups (Viper Owners and Viper Club). Each group has over 6k members. Post really good pics and you will get lots of people that share it and even serious buyers messaging you. I sold a few cars that way.

      Also make a good YouTube video of it and post it on all the sites. It will attract lots of out of state buyers and you will likely need to make videos for them anyway since the TA is so limited.

      I have had quite a few different cars including a TA. Not sure what the goals are or if you just want a change of pace, but the cars you mentioned will not be as special as your TA 😉
