Sandy B. Posted February 15, 2009 Report Share Posted February 15, 2009 http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAP...bayphotohostingErnie N There have been 3 2005-2007 Avantis that have made their way to E-Bay in the last year. All 3 have stalled at $32,000 to $33,000 and none were sold. They depreciate $30,000 in 15 months ???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
82rqb3449 Posted February 19, 2009 Report Share Posted February 19, 2009 No, they don't depreciate that much, those that were listed were purchased for far less than sticker when Avanti Motors closed up shop (look on the Yahoo groups site where you will find the factory fire sale price sheets posted)! The red convertible for example was an Ebay listing from '07 and, if you look it up you will find the last sale price. Most went for 38-48K at that time and the lack of support (for the body and many interior parts) has made them a tougher purchase decision than the older models with plenty of vendor support. Keep in mind that the '05 body and interior were 1 year only designs and the '06 & '07s are unique as well sharing little, if anything, with even the '00-'04s! The current economic climate (worldwide) is, of course, not helping either as the funds for such purchases are drying up (at least in the case of the home equity loan spenders who now have LOTS of toys for sale) as well! Sad but true! Let's hope that the textbook definition of phoenix (Avanti Motors) can pull off a rebirth some day! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
