AMG GT
Anyone that has dealt with "sports cars" for many years realizes they are not an investment for the most part. Drive them, enjoy them, trade in..........repeat.
Hopefully at least save the sales tax on the next car!

Congrats!!
Now take it to the dealer of your choice and make sure the remainder of the factory 4 year warranty is linked to you.

Have them run the service history and make sure the Service “A” has been done.

Have them check to see if all of the factory flashes and updates have been completed including a very recent NAV update.

Regards

Try this experiment:

Take a heavy stone. Walk up to your swimming pool.

Throw the stone in and watch.

Think of the stone like the value of your car.

Cargurus says the asking price is $5k over market.

30% depreciation on a 3 year-old car is not too shabby. Figured with an AMG it would be higher.

Some of us got substantial discounts off MSRP so the depreciation was built in to the new car price.

I received about 22% off MSRP on my 17 GT plus a $1000 more than I paid for my trade in so ultimately even though it was a MY17 bought earlier this year it was too good of a deal for me to pass up.

yep 30% on this class of car isn't bad
mine is virtually new with 1400 miles so at $100k I feel fine as it is a lot of car for the $$

Only 400 miles past the run in period, that's a great deal. Enjoy

It seems like the GT cars have held quite a bit of their value so far, right--especially for an AMG car? Has anyone has changed their view that these cars are not likely candidates for appreciation? Why or why not?

I'd like to pick up a clean low-mileage GTC. And it'll be a lot easier to get approval from the SFC (Spousal Finance Committee) if I can somehow justify it as an investment instead of an expense! TIA for your (honest) thots!

There have been sales on BaT for GTS

There was a recent sale on BaT for a 2016 edition 1 for $82.5k with 12k miles.

Every indication is these cars are holding their value and in many cases increasing. What I am not sure is if is part of the overall very strong used car market right now or something specific to the AMG GT's?

I tend to think it is part of overall market situation vs. AMG GT's as most everything used and somewhat limited in availability is way up. Time will tell if this will hold but currently a sellers market.

It is the covid market. Pre-covid GTSs could be had in the high 50s and 60s.

Its much more likely that you'll eat a decent decrease in value when the covid market corrects, long before you see any investment potential.
