Default Penny's for sale (not a joke) Selling my '06 RS4 xB #2341!!!

https://www.scionlife.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=224539

Some of you may remember the April fools joke I did where I said my car was for sale. There was actually a little bit of truth to that back then. I really was thinking about selling it but I refused to. But with a heavy heart I have to say that this is for real now and not a joke I truly wish I didn't have to but this was a difficult but necessary decision. I've come to a point where I finally realized what I want to do with my life and I'll be returning to school to achieve that dream. I'll be making a major career change and although I love my penny so much that dream will be too difficult to reach if I have to worry about making car payments and insurance payments. I have to make a huge sacrifice. I plan on owning a Scion again in the future (hopefully another RS 4.0) but right now even used ones are not cheap enough for me to afford. I want her to go to a fellow enthusiast so I know she will be treated right. I'm not posting her on Craigslist or anywhere else unless I don't get any offers. Please only PM me if you're willing to make a serious offer. Thanks everyone.

Thanks y'all. I don't plan on being a stranger. I wanted an xB waaaay before they were released and was still a concept known as the bbx. One day when I can afford to just plop down cash and not ever have to finance a car again I'll get another first gen. One that I can actually afford and mod like I always wanted!

^ well if you need money I know a good home for those wheels Shawn

I know the TP is very popular (was just @ Lake City Scion and all the sales people had to come out and take a look), and it won't be hard to sell. Just hope you don't get upside down more and have to make payments on a car you no longer have....GL!

That sucks that you are gettin rid of the penny.

But congrats on the new life decisions and changes. Always hard to take that leap but so rewarding when you finally do. Good luck and we all will wait with antisipation for your return.

BUMP!

Not that I want to get rid of Penny but I need her to sell and I got no bites yet so if you know anyone interested send them my way. I haven't set a price yet to see what kinds of offers will be heading my way but I don't want to owe $$ on a car that I no longer own. What I owe on the loan is a little bit less than what you would pay brand new if that helps. Penny is practically brand new, only has 13,XXX miles and one more free dealer oil change left!!!!
