There's always a crowd of people who will comment on the for sale threads, good or bad, who are not in the least bit interested in buying what is for sale.
It's entirely up to the seller how much they want to ask for something, if its overpriced it won't sell and it only hurts the seller, nobody else.
People really need to mind their own business when it comes to sale threads and stop slating them.
OP, I think you would be better forgetting selling here and concentrate elsewhere where you may not get the same bad vibes.
Think I've been pretty clear why I want to sell after a month and despite the ridiculous implications, there's zero to be negative and sceptical about. Yes as I've said, I do have buyers remorse. I romanticised about having a coupe after having several roadsters, only to find I don't really get one with it, mainly on the power front. Not really hard to comprehend that is it? Regardless, it's mint and there will be someone out there for it. The car will sell at some point for sure and I may not achieve asking.
After all, I was testing response. Having had a few DMs, the interest is there but I'm in the fortunate position not to be desperate, given it's a 4th car and the least of my concern.

As someone who bought an E86 last summer and was looking for low owners, low mileage and payed a lot for it. There is a market out there for this.
The recent financial situation and winter has definitely impacted prices and I have seen a few over winter I would have been interested in. There are a lot more on the market than 8 months ago.
I can testify that low mileage does not insulate you from the normal old age issues though as my expansion tank has just gone and a Caliper seized but I didn’t buy it expecting a new car.
There will always be folk that are happy with high mileage and others that prefer less at a cost. Each to their own. You can’t really compare it to an M though as I looked at this when buying and as much as I would have loved to have bought an M for a comparable price it would have been near triple the mileage and cost a fortune in comparison to run and maintain. It’s a different market which I couldn’t justify.
GLWTS. A buyer will come along.

If that drove past me I would stop and watch it.
If yet another 911 went past I'm not sure i'd even notice.

Price dropped to £16k decided to absorb the hit for my mistake.
