Where is the best site to list my Audi R8 to sell it fast?

I'm stuck between Bring a Trailer and Cars & Bids but super stressed about the timeline. I need the cash for a house deposit in Miami by the end of the month. Is BaT too slow or should I just try Autotrader...

Building on the earlier suggestion, I went through this process with my Audi R8 V10 Spyder 5.2 FSI 2018 when I was pivoting some assets for a deal. If you're looking at a tight window for that Miami deposit, you really gotta consider the fee structures and turnaround times. While those boutique auctions have the cachet, the listing fee on eBay Motors National Listing is a total deal and gets the car live in like an hour. When I sold mine, I made sure to highlight the S-Tronic specs because buyers nerd out on the 7-speed dual-clutch stats. Ngl, the private party route can be a headache with lowballers, but avoiding that 5% buyer premium on auction sites usually means the buyer can offer you more cash directly. Just have your maintenance logs for the carbon-ceramic brakes ready... serious buyers always ask for the rotor wear measurements. Hang in there, you'll make it happen!

> Is BaT too slow or should I just try Autotrader... BaT is definitely too slow for your timeline. In my experience, they take like three weeks just to approve your photos and get the copy written before the 7-day clock even starts. I tried selling an Audi R8 V10 Plus 2017 through them and the vetting was a total crawl. If you need cash for that Miami deposit by month-end, Cars & Bids Auction Service is much more agile. They usually get listings live in about a week. Still, auctions are a gamble tho. If the reserve isnt met, youre stuck. Tbh, if speed is the absolute priority, check Autotrader Instant Cash Offer just to see the floor price. It gives you a baseline. But for real, Cars and Bids is the sweet spot for modern stuff like the R8 if you want it gone in under 14 days... BaT just takes too long to curate everything.
