It&#8217;s a new  2008 Nissan Versa hatchback with some really nifty features. You never  have to take the key out of your pocket because the car &#8220;knows&#8221; when you  have it on you. Push a button on the door, and it unlocks! Turn the  ignition switch, and it starts! Pretty cool stuff. I&#8217;ll post some pics.   <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/redvsblue.com\/assets\/images\/emoticons\/smiley0.gif\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The  next step was to sell my old car. It was an older Camry in very good  condition, but we listed it about two weeks ago and hadn&#8217;t had as much  response as I expected. Well, on Saturday night we lowered the asking  price from $7500 to $6800, and the car had sold by 4:00 PM on Sunday.<\/p>\n<p>We  showed the car to four different people yesterday, and it ended in a  rather amusing bidding war between two parties. What did the car sell  for in the end? <strong>$6900<\/strong> &#8212; more than we were asking. We had to pull  both the Craig&#8217;s List and Auto Trader ads immediately after the sale,  so the phone would stop ringing!<\/p>\n<p>So, the next time someone tells  you to list a car for a lot more than it&#8217;s worth, so you&#8217;ll have  &#8220;negotiating&#8221; room, just laugh. Listing a car at a good price creates  more interest, and that&#8217;s to your benefit!  <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/redvsblue.com\/assets\/images\/emoticons\/smiley8.gif\" alt=\"\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As some of you already know, I recently bought a new car.
