If it really is a serious bid for 5500 i would just sell it. I made that mistake with my TSI AWD. I didnt take the same type of bid because i wanted 500 more and then after a while of not getting rid of it and no one else really wanting to pay it i ended up selling it for only $4800. It was a bad desicion cuz one person offered $5700 and i didnt take it cuz i thought it was worth more. Id try and maybe get like 5600-5700 from them just to try and squeeze a bit more if you can. But if not then just sell it. Just my 0.02 cents

 

If they can secure financing I'll probably do what you suggest. Thanks for the info.
