MY17 S63AMG - MBUSA Buyback. MY16 SL63 - Sold MY19 W213 E63s. 2020 W213 E63s Wagon
Black GTR
















Saw this at my local dealer and was speaking with the service director and he mentioned this was a very limited edition GTR. Black on Black. $245,000 ( dealer mark up of course ) if anyone is interested:

I would never buy a dealer markup car no matter how special the car is nor would I buy a 2 seater car that my family can’t use. Not a track car kinda guy so I’m all good here.

Canadian pricing. My car with every option stickered around $227,000.
That black one appears not to have any CF or CC brakes. (-25,000)
So it is a lot over MSRP. Rip. ****ing. Off.

lol. N/M. I see this is in California. That makes this price even worse. $245K in US dollars!!!

The GTR is not my thing, but according to the dealer, yes FJ whom is the largest volume Mercedes dealer in SoCal said the GTR Black edition is only 1 of 500 I believe he said and it did have full carbon package including the rear spoiler ( sorry for the bad iPhone photos ). It did not have the CCB which I was quite surprised. I got all my Mercedes from FJ and one of befits is I can get my Mercedes hand washed and interior cleaned for free, as many times I want a week so I will be being my S63 in for a wash tomorrow and get the sticker price and mark up information. As for the markup, if it’s a 1 out of 500 production cars as I was told, markup is invitable. Look at the SLS and the markup on that car and how much it’s selling in the marketplace.

Agreed. Just making up a justification for the markup.

That is not a special edition GTR. We’re just helping you out bro. It’s obvious you don’t know the latest on this car so don’t get so defensive. You don’t believe everything your salesman/woman tells you, do you?

Either way, nice pics. Black looks good on this car.

So back to the dealer for a car wash and the markup on the GTR is $60,000. Looked at it closely today and the entire roof is carbon fiber. Sure it doesn’t justify the markup, but never seen a carbon roof on a GT base AMG:

The ED1 has a CF roof. ALL the GTRs have a CF roof.

that car can be had for $180k through a reputable dealer

Oh man.. did I mention I have a special 2019 Blue Edition GTR? Even marking it up to under MSRP.... btw the "BLUE Edition" means I'll be blue if we dont sell it as my boss told me to do grey lol..

I hate markups as an enthusiast.. I don't get involved even here with the G square 4x4, or the black editions or launch edition G63 shennenigans..

Not Free Range air. Especially if it’s imported. I think Tommy Callahan should be sent in to negotiate with these guys. You can stick your head up a bull’s as....

no Ccb just crazy. This has become one of the biggest problems with dealerships. To be fair they are all doing it not just MB. The only way to get around this is to try and establish a great relationship with your dealer and above the salesperson level.
