I have finally talked some sense into my GM on this fantastic car. He will now consider local deals @ MSRP. If anyone is interested, please let me know!

 

Funny looking back at the post started back on 8-28 "2 Black Series at the House" and now seeing this. Good that you knew better than your management when they decided to price it as "such and such over sticker". I think $40,000 over sticker was the asking price. Love it when the people on the floor know better than the stupid management.

BTW, I posted this info over at 6speed as well so you might get some inquiries from some folks over there that don't frequent this forum.

Good luck on the sale. Great car (but not at $40k over sticker).

Thanks Joe....I frequent that site myself, as Porshce will be my next car.

 

The cars have been sold below MSRP since they first hit the street....

 

all depends on how unclued dealerships are

 

If the demand was so high to command $40,000 over sticker, i doubt it would ever hit the showroom floor. Management sure missed that one.

 

I wonder how long before we see another post titled "Below MSRP".

 

Just letting everyone know that we sold the Blk/Blk one, but still have the Mars Red/Blk available.........@ MSRP of course!!

 

I sure hope they got a deal on it, would be a shame to pay MSRP.

 

$5K off MSRP right now. What do you say?

 

To all those out there, it was sold at MSRP. Sorry to disappoint anyone.

 

What a sucker, in this marketplace why would anyone do that.

 

What are you talking about? What did you pay for yours?

 

With the current state of the economy and the fact the car has been sitting on the dealers floor for a while, paying MSRP just makes no sense at all to me. Wouldn't do it, if the demand was so great for the car it would have been sold long before it hit the floor. Plus as we all know if is going to depreciate VERY FAST.

 

SO? I seriously doubt it will depreciate as fast as the SL600.

 

Probably WILL, cars aren't an investment, simply toys.

 

Damn...so much for my predictions.

 

I partly agree. If it was sitting for some ime maybe the buyer could have got a few grand off. I bet the dealership would've bit!

 

There is a red one that has been for sale at Mercedes Of Chandler.Car has been for sale for almost 2-months now.I went and looked at it but the red is a horrible color.More burgandy than red.Car is in AZ.

 

And its still for sale becasue it's Mars red, or the dealer wants over msrp.?
I've seen mars red and its stunning accenting the carbon fiber better than any of the other colors. Its nothing close to burgandy. But color is an individual choice and some perfer boring silver.

 

I would like to see a photo of the Mars Red color.

 

There's one on the offical picture thread post #13-15.

 

To each their own, but the Mars Red doesn't do it for me.

 

I will tell you that the car is not red.Black is the best color for this car.Sorry They are asking msrp not over.

 

I agree that silver is very common...But considering the Black Series was made to commemerate 40 years of AMG and also taking into account the F1 safety car role and silver being Mercedes-Benz racing color...I think it's the best choice considering the aforementioned as well as resale value.
