Thats actually a cracker of an idea.

I'd love to own that vehicle and I'm down on my luck at the moment. A raffle gives everyone an even chance.

Good on Rockdale!

I hope you sell it.
However human nature being what it is I could see some people baulking at getting it from a dealer. If you have trouble selling it I would take it to any MS charity events they have and trying there.

I bought my S80 at a Starlight auction, it's a car I never would have considered otherwise.
People do strange things at charity auctions, I know! I paid $120k for an otherwise $90k car. But I feel good every time I drive it.

We delivered the XR8 Sprint manual that was auctioned off for 92500!

Guy was tickled pink he even got one and was the same as you, felt good about it.

I'd consider a ticket if it was sold off like that if I wasn't just laid off.

Heck, saw a Mustang GT in the shops yesterday and stopped to have a look. Apparently they're giving away a HSV commodore or Shelby Mustang every second month, so long as you are signed up. I'd have considered that too! (Just checked the website, this month is a Shelby, looks like the prize changes each time)

I like those odds - I'd be in that as well and donations can be claimed on tax

Sorry to burst the bubble, no tax deduction is available for purchasing a raffle ticket if there is a chance to win something. Does not matter that the money is going to charity. You can certainly try adding it to your tax return but it would fail an audit.

Tax deduction will be given to the business that hands over the cash.

Sure, claim a deduction and keep your fingers crossed that you don't get called for an audit. As I stated before, if there is a chance to win something no deduction.

Good luck to the person who buys the car and that the money received helps to find a cure or help people who are suffering.
