we just got in in at my dealer, the car is gonna be 100K even. its silver, drop top, 9K miles. im located in Maryland. I know the owner of my dealer (family friend) so im trying to help him out and move this car, the closest one that i found was going for 106K so this is a pretty damn good deal. if you guys know anyone even remotely interested i would really love the help. PM me or email me with any questions or comments. egwin@winkelly.com is my email. thanks guys

What are the options? Have you checked autotrader and other internet car sites? 100k is not a good deal, try somewhere in the 90's. All sl 55's are convertible. Not trying to be a dick. i know of a 03 silver/charcoal with 7k miles keyless go, bixenon and cd collection can be had for $96,000. So unless the car your owner has is loaded with options he should think about lowering his price.

 

Yea, and trade-in value(wholesale) is mid to upper 80's on these cars................Quite a profit margin!

its at my dealer, that car was bought from an auction for 97k i dont know too much about MB so i dont know if its a good price, but all the ones in the area are right around that price. i found one for 95k but it has 23k miles on it. remember prices allways vary from state to state. the car is inspected and all so i mean thats one less hassel and it is on a dealer lot so its kinda hard to haggel price like you could from a privet seller, but im sure if anyone is seriously interested they could come in and test drive it then we could talk price with the main manager. and dont worry i know you dont mean to be a dick, like i said when it comes to MB i have no backround in them

A six digit value car that has gone through an auction is NOT a good thing to advertise.

Dealers only send these cars to the auction if selling them could potentially hurt their reputation and/or open them up to liability.

 

Bought at auction for $97k ? Who is the guy at your delaership who was that dumb ? He will be fired soon if his dad doesn't own the place LOL

 

95k for 23k miles SL55, I'll get a freaking turbo

 

93K on a 03 SL55 is worth like low 80s LOL

 

93k for a 03' SL55....and dealers in Florida are knocking $10k off their new ones. You can put two together and wish your friend luck.

On the other hand, people are(were) willing to buy a used/demo/still-smells-new e55 wagon with 1k miles at sticker because it's such a "rare" car........anything can happen I had once considered such "rare" wagon until I saw one "sitting" at the lot. I changed my mind because that does not give me the same tease as the RS4 Avant does to me. I sure hope they will get here soon.
