Selling a Reservation

kdbert50 · 11-08-2008, 07:16 PM

Does anyone know whether it is legal to sell your reservation, i.e. can a reservation be transfered to another person?

From the reservation confirmation (the response to your $99 deposit):

Quote:

Your reservation is non-transferable. Any attempt to assign or transfer your reservation will result in the cancellation of your reservation and a return of your reservation fee without interest.

Sorry!

in other words: NO!

You can buy the car then sell it.

Go in with him, and make the person who wants your car pay for it.

I think you would be hard pressed at this moment to find someone to sell it to anyway. Things seem to be leveling off a bit.

Your best bet is to try CL and maybe someone here who dosnt want to wait as long as they would have to. Fresh rez.

I think the market is cooling in my area. I've seen the same cars listed and re-listed multiple times on CL. They are all asking over MSRP.

Someone traded in a yellow cabrio at the Ford dealer down the street from me and they haven't been able to move it for over a month. I think things are very cool a the moment. My car is being made on Monday, and I'll pick it up just before Christmas....if I had been hoping to flip it, I would not even pick it up at this point. It's gotten to be that bad.

Gas is down to just over 2 bucks a gallon. If a 40+MPG Smart won't sell... electrics are doomed.

It'll now take 370,000 miles to justify the cost of a $30k electric vehicle vs. a $16k Smart 451. (1.5 c/mi vs 5.25 c/mi)

Time to buy back those SUVs, right? Then we repeat the process in 20 years.
