Totally disagree.

Not sure what market you're watching, but IMO it's very unusual to have classic or special cars sit unsold. Go to Club Cobra or GT40s.com. Cobras, GT40's are sold relatively quickly, but the KEY is they can't be priced $100,000 +/- over the market. I also watch both the new and used Porsche 911 market and there are GT3's, GTRS's, CGT's, etc. being sold quickly for hundreds of thousands of dollars depending on the model. Special and desirable cars sell fast if priced around market value.

Evan's Cobra sitting for 3+ months speaks loud and clear to me. Either it's over priced and/or he needs to advertise it to a wider audience. Alternatively, put a high reserve on it and throw it on eBay or BaT and see what the high bid is. Do it 2-3 times. That'll give him a decent estimate of what's it's worth.
