What's an excuse for

EcoBoost

So my friend's dad owns a car dealership. Whenever they get trade ins that aren't worth their time to resell profitably, they either get sent to auction or we get to sell them privately. Usually I just get normal small stuff like Corollas, Accents, etc. that I can easily pass off as selling for myself. I usually don't question what they give me as long as I'm getting paid, but I'm definitely having a hard time coming up for an excuse to tell people as to why I'm selling the next one, so I thought I'd ask for ideas on here, cause why not xD

 

What's an excuse for a teenage scene girl like me, selling a Lincoln Town Car? :P

I don't think buyers will really care. What happens to old towncars anyway? I see crown vics but not towncars. Just tell them you were given it by a relative or sonething haha.

This is the first time I've actually seen any towncar in a while... There actually aren't many on the road anymore and I wonder what happens to the old ones as well. The guy who traded in this one bought a newer Sierra.

Maybe they're sent to Mexico or something. "When they send us Town Cars they don't send us their best ones. They send us their high milers and their hen night trash" 

 

They're probably just scrapped cus they have high miles lol. I still see them used as limos tho.

That car looks really good, you should just keep it for yourself. I don't think you can, but how awesome would that be?

I have no signature. There is nothing to see here. Move along.

There's probably a car from mercury you're thinking of that looks similar. Since Lincoln and Mercury are both made by Ford.

I'd like to actually if only it didn't get horrible gas mileage (compared to my CRV, but it's actually not that bad at all for a V8). It's super comfortable and smooth, drives like you're sitting on a sofa that's floating on a cloud. And considering its massive weight, it can still put you back in your seat when you floor it. It's  surprisingly not a slow car.

Just say it's too big or make up some silly shit like that. Or if you want to be in depth, it looks like an old folk's car, so just say you bought it from your grandparents and don't like it.
