I am debating selling my 2021 Carbon Series. It's only got 200 miles on it. What's the best way to sell? I've sold on BaT but just rather not sell this car that way, but if that will bring the most money, then I might consider. Thanks.

If you have a price in mine list, it here. Prices seem a little soft but still your car should bring good money with a warranty still in place. If you can set a reasonable reserve BAT brings lots of bids and fees are cheap.

I thought my '05 on BaT would bring more (doesn't everyone?!), but I would prob still use them again. Would be annoying to go thru the expense of transporting a car to BJ / Mecum only to get a low price / reserve not met. You could turn it over to a dealer, but that costs a lot and if you choose one far from you it might seem somewhat out of your control: If the end of the month comes and they need income are they gonna fib to convince you to let it go cheaper than you agreed on? You could list it yourself and possibly deal with a lot of deadbeat buyers, and might take longer than expected.

Awesome car. Would love to have it ... Good luck! (y)

Not much details but it’s 2021 Carbon Seties as they are standard except for the color combination. I have every document, wrapper that came from ordering to delivery. It’s been fully wrapped in PPF. I was fortunate enough to be allocated the car. Price I’m not sure as this exact spec went on BaT recently for 975 and it had 15 miles and another with 2021 with 14 miles sold for 1.05. So I’m not sure. I think it’s a 950-975 car based on recent actions BUT that means nothing!!! If I auction I will wait till Spring for sure.

BJ is no reserve and I’m sure with the liquor flowing at any live auction it would bid to 1k but the commission fees, PITA of transportation etc would not be worth it to me.

Thanks everyone!!

With only 200 miles, do you not like the car?

I guess in reading this thread and now knowing the recent sales of 2021 “Allocated” Ford Gt’s on BAT at 15 miles and 14 miles and now 200 miles , it is disappointing that these allocated vehicles are being “flipped.”
Just my opinion .

Matter of fact I didn’t buy the car to flip. I’ve been a FGT owner over 10 years. Life happens sometimes, priorities change, so you don’t always know why someone is selling. Don’t assume!!

How does it handle compared to the regular 05-06? I wasn’t sure if cutting the roof would change its handling characteristics.

So what did the seller take home?? BJ gets money from the buyer and seller!! BaT only collects from the buyer.

BJ site says 8% seller fee: 92% of $1.25m = $1.15m

Looks Like A Good Day To Sell A Beautiful 2017 Ford GT #H045, Early Built after the Executive cars were finished and took Delivery July 24, 2017. Everything was sorted out before last warranty work was done and today it has 4,871.4 miles and in Excellent condition And IS NOT A GARAGE QUEEN! This GT is well known by most Forum Members and probably one of the most photographed on the Forum. This GT is One Of built in 2017 in American Racing Livery as my Concierge wouldn’t duplicate it in 2017 out of 138 total built. PM if additional information is needed. Bottom Price is $800,000 and that is solid. Would love to sell it to a Forum Member of Possible. Enough Said!
Sure wish I could swing it. Love this car!

Tommy ,
Recommend that you start your own thread for your sale.
This thread is titled “debating selling a 2021 Carbon Series” and yours is a 2017 Original build so people may miss opening it,
Good luck
