**Do You Have a Top of The Line Classic Car for sale?**

There are two major errors individuals make when trying to sell a Classic Car, or for that matter any car, on line. The Pictures that they post and the Description of their beautiful Car are sometimes less than adequate.
 
Dec. 29, 2010 - PRLog -- Let us review these two aspects and see how we can improve our presentations:

The first one, Pictures, is really and easily remedied. Good camera, nice setting, good pictures. If you need an example go to a Classic Car site http://www.all-about-detail.com/classic-exotics.php and find what catches your eye and do your best to mimic it. At All About Detail  have had some pictures of truly gorgeous cars where the owners have submitted some of the most unattractive pictures imaginable. Two come to mind:

•First, a sleek looking Corvette, the picture had a water hose wandering
throughout and a garbage can overflowing with trash. We had to ask for a better picture.

•The other one was an eye catching 67 Malibu 396 SS. The picture was taken in a junk
 yard with hundreds of junk cars and a shamble of a garage in the background. That
 picture did not invoke confidence and that listing was turned downed. The lesson here is
 keep in mind what you want to stand out, The Car.

Make sure the picture’s setting, the background, has no distractions of any sort. We recommend that a setting extols confidence with nice buildings and/or nice scenery in the background.

The second error, Descriptions, is how the sellers describe their cut above, sleek, ultimate driving machine, impressive, eye catching, best of steed, top of fray, real looker, and great example of a Classic Car. This is not to suggest that you be disingenuous or less that truthful. For example do not describe your Volkswagen Bug as the ultimate driving machine. You could say it is a fun driving experience though.  

Do buzz words work? All you have to do is pay attention to car ads. Those companies pay a lot of money to marketing companies for just the right words.

Below you will find a list of buzz words that I pulled from a MSN article "2010 MSN Autos Editor's Choice Awards" http://editorial.autos.msn.com/slideshow.aspx?cp-document... . Try to incorporate these and ones like these into your description.

Buzz Words:

•   Benchmarks
•   Upscale cabin
•   Fun driving experience
•   Great example
•   Top of the fray
•   Refinement and luxury
•   Handling dynamics
•   Best steed yet
•   Civil for everyday driving
•   A real looker
•   Its beauty isn't just skin-deep
•   Well-fitted materials
•   No-excuses sports car
•   The cockpit envelops driver and passenger in supple leather like a fine glove
•   Bells and whistles are top-notch
•   Eye-catching
•   This impressive
•   Ultimate driving machine
•   Emits the most addictive howl
•   Sleek
•   A cut above
•   Very responsive
•   Universal appeal
•   Simply spectacular cars
•   This drop-top is nimble, responsive and fast
•   A shot of adrenaline
•   Armed with the same menacing, supercharged 6.2-liter V8 engine
•   It ranks right up there
•   Won’t break the bank.

All of these in just one article. Do these descriptions help sell cars? They sure do.

There are several other aspects to good descriptions:
1.Good grammar and spelling. Sloppiness here will erode confidence.  
2.Conviction, your ad should read as if you truly believe it. Truthfulness will help
   with this aspect. For example do not state that your this car has all the bells and whistle
   if it  is a Volkswagen Thing. You should not be able to say that with conviction.  
3.Cohesive development is important. It should not ramble, it should set a premise, give
  points to prove the premise and then draw the conclusion for the reader.  For a good
  examples click here and look for the cars that have recently sold.
4.Format, attractive and easy to read. Do not make the reader work to find things.
5.History. Like any antique, providence helps sell.  A classic Cadillac owned by Elvis is
   certainly more attractive than one owned by Mr. Nobody. A Classic car owned and driven
   by a gentle driver such as an older woman is more attractive than a car driven by a
   teenager.

If you pay attention to these things your answer to the question, “Do you have a Top of The Line Classic Car for sale?” will be a resounding no, it has SOLD!
