I'll take some pics when my father is sure that he wants to let the car go. If you are interested, please send me an estimated offer (obviously you'd need to see it before a final amount would be determined) and I will take it to him.
Thanks,
Ben

The reason I have not posted pics or price are simple vs asking people to contact me is simple; only those truly interested will waste their time contacting me. Additionally, as I only have one SL500 for sale, it would be foolish to limit the potential selling price by listing a specified dollar amount or range. If you were willing to spend 50k for something that the seller listed at 45k, would you still offer 50?
As for my post count... I've been around since day 1 of this MBWorld and well into the original format (before vBulletin). Time-aside, I have to attribute a large portion of the number to repeatedly answering the same question over and over throughout the years.
RedMongoosE,
Thank you for your offer however the only potential part trade that I would consider on the car would be the 19" BBS LM's for other wheels that would fit. And that would most likely only be if the car does not sell and has to go to the stealership.
You should be able to pick up a set new for around $130ish.

I will offer you $3,500. Is that within your "specified dollar amount or range?"

That is by far the dumbest thing I've ever read.

It doesn't matter if 100 million SL500's were made. I have one and disclosing the minimum that I am willing to accept before reviewing the offers would be absolutely ridiculous. My father does not need to sell this immediately, thus we have time to review potential offers and make a choice.
When you bought your car was there a sticker on the window saying the minimum that the seller would take? No, the dealer spent time with you and numbers went back and forth until both parties were satisfied. Perhaps you've heard of negotiating? Neither party ever says their limits up front. You can try to convince me otherwise, but reality is that's how sales on non-fixed priced items are made.
Save your $3,500 and spend it on something that will give you something better to do than hijack threads of no concern to you. Perhaps taking some sales classes would be in order?

First of all, let me apologize for having to create a new account, I couldn't remember my old information.
#1. Mach430, offer sent. We will discuss the rest in private chat. I based it on some KBB pricing, but i might need to shipped...we can talk numbers over the phone too if you prefer.
#2. Cyntaxx...I assume that you are homosexual, as those are the only types of individuals that don't vomit at the prospect of owning a G wagon. Maybe this is where your angst comes from. Feeling ostracized in real life, so you need to e-thug it up on the forums. Stop trolling a thread looking for a fight. You just might get one. It is obvious that Mach430 is well respected on these forums, and as such knows how to carry himself fine without your assistance.

Ok, to get this back on track... Thanks for the interesting support...
I've received emails/PM's from a few people and I will be responding to each of you (if I have not already) after the holiday.

Sales class...? Pup, listen, if you are confused into thinking that an *ASKING PRICE* is a *MINIMUM PRICE*, then perhaps it is time to jump back on daddy's lap and ask him to dispense some common sense.

1) You clearly do not belong on a MB board, let alone the Internet with your backwards homophobe mentality. Maybe get off mommy's computer and go play outside?
2) You have absolutely no understanding of the heritage behind my G-WagEn. Did you know it has been in production for over two decades and has been the ONLY Mercedes vehicle that has retained its original looks and much of its chassis? Did you know it is one of the most capable offroad machines in history and has been used by dozens of militaries across the globe, including our very own USMC? Maybe you should read up before insulting someone else's vehicle. What exactly do you drive? Post up!
3) Troll? E-Thug? Mr. Cook, you have 1 post count and recently joined because you "forgot your information." Your only reason for joining, judging by your ONE post, was to throw playground insults at me. I think it is honestly time for you to reflect a bit on that comment.
4) Are you Mach430? Maybe you're his friend from high school? I haven't been on this board much, but all I see at face value is a username with nearly 35,000 posts - I have no clue whether that merits respect or pity.
Have a great day!

Fact of the matter is, regardless of whether it is in jest or not, the statement holds true. The demographic for G Wagons is predominantly homosexuals and african-americans. Not racism, not homophobia...just the facts. I figured you were hastily run to the "homophobia" camp when I posted it. I commend you for your predictability.

I wasn't insulting your car, obviously you must be a homophobe if you are troubled by the fact that the owners of your vehicle are predominantly homosexual.
And let's boil this down to the nuts and bolts here:
I feel as if I was well within my boundaries in asking for a price. I may have been harsh about it, but I am obviously not the only person in this thread requesting that it be posted. You, on the other hand, came in here with a new username to blast me and have nothing more to contribute.

How about you just GTFO of this thread? You are the last person to comment about having something to contribute.
At no time did you ever have any inclination to make an offer for the car and only posted to try to play Mr. Internet Genius. Well, we're all quite impressed, so now you can move on and harrass somebody else.
Have an issue with ecook; take it to PM.
Have an issue with me; pickup the phone and call somebody who cares.
Have an actual offer to make on the car, by all means post. But as you don't, please leave.

In all seriousness, I could offer you $8,000. That is in line with Edmunds pricing for a 1992 SL500 with 95,000 in clean condition with "special paint" as an option.
