I am debating selling my 2019 GTR. It currently has 780 miles and has remainder of full factory warranty, as well as a cpo warranty. Purchased with intentions to keep, but circumstances changed. I am aware no one has a crystal ball but would love to hear your thoughts on selling now with current miles, opposed to selling this May with under 2500 miles?
This is my 1st post so please be gentle.
You should have no problem getting premium money for your GTR.
The service records and warranties will help a great deal.
Have you done a Service “A” yet?
See what your dealer will give you for it. Many are offering premium prices for clean cars.

The used car market is clearly hot right now and while no one has a crystal ball, I can't imagine it being any different next May. Prices on GTRs and Pros, in particular, have really escalated, but I feel like some of the dealers were a bit too greedy with their pricing on the Pros and some cars have sat and prices have come down a little.
With regard to getting a buy-back offer from your dealer, I just downsized my garage and took a very clean '11 SL63 to 3 dealers and the MB dealer lowballed the other offers by $5k - $6k. I recognize not all MB dealers are the same, but Porsche offered me $7k more and showed real interest in the car where the MB sales mgr that priced their buy-back offer didn't even look at the car or bother to talk to me directly. Point is, if you do try a buy-back, I'd recommend getting several offers from different dealers (the second-highest was a used car broker). I studied the market pretty closely for my SL and figured I left ~ $2k - $3k on the table vs. what I might have made selling the car myself, but for me it was well worth it not to have to deal with an out of state buyer, escrow payments, etc.
The market may not be in the current frenzy, but you still have a very low milage, good color, 2nd best spec AMG GT. You will have no problem selling it for good money, I'd shop a couple local Mercedes dealers now, I know they're paying good money for these cars at the moment.

I purchased this for myself, but a combination of the high market, along with wanting a roadster I decided to sell. I own Palisades Auto Sales by the way.
Looking to trade for a GTc or R roadster to replace.

Reason: add info
I have 2019 AMG GTR lotus red with 13k miles on it. Whole car has PPF, eurocharged stage 2 dyno tuned making 675 on the wheel hp, downpipes and has custom updated 2020 style steering wheel with carbon fiber/ alcantara. Stock downpipes will come with the car incase anyone wants to go stock.
I can’t suggest a price but can tell that mods will lower the value for most prospective buyers. You will have to find the right buyer that appreciates them which narrows the pool of people.
I agree with Wolfman about the mods. Speaking for myself, if I am in the preowned market, first thing I look for is aftermarket stuff, especially mechanical/performance mods and won't consider that car.
It's not that I don't mod myself, but I go through great pains to keep all factory parts and restore those when I get ready to sell.

Yes and that is exactly why all factory parts that were modded will go with the car, factory cats and the factory steering wheel with airbag
the light mods that were done definitely made the car more fun to drive

Your mods are nice, no doubt. But you might want to consider not mentioning them, restore to factory and list what can be sold here or on other sites. Just knowing that the car was modded may make people stay clear of your car. Tunes are a red flag for warranty concerns...

i have not decided to sell yet, just wanted to know what the values would be
if i was to sell i wouldnt sell it privately, would make a deal with one of the local dealers here and have him find me a good spec 2016-2017 F12 so i dont lose out on the tax credit

Just a friendly "heads up". Dealers are starting to look for mods in 3 places especially BC of EPA- intake, exhaust, ECU. They're rejecting tradeins with mods BC of liability. When they sell the car, they will be liable if/when the car fails emissions by the new owner. Some states are getting very aggressive with these mods. CA and CO are both now testing for ECU mods by measuring a CVN that must match the original factory CVN and visually inspecting for intake and exhaust mods such as CAT deletes. Even if you did go private and someone from CA bought it, they'd probably be back knocking on your door when the car fails emissions.
Here is an example of one member with CAT deletes.
Good that you saved all of the physical pieces as the catted downtubes can be really expensive to restore just to sell. Might consider reversing everything before you approach the dealer on a trade in instead of just offering the parts. Is your tune reversible?
Everything is reversible. Eurocharged has my factory tune saved if I ever wanted to go back to stock. Factory cats can go back on aswell
Same dealer bought my eurocharged stage 2 tuned S63 coupe with a complete new exhuast system (front to back) and they sold it in a matter of days so i dont think people shy away from cars that have been tastefully modded. Saves them money if they had to do it on their own

THIS!! It's why I've seen more tuned cars being offered for private sales -at a somewhat reasonable prices -even though the market is crazy high. These cars are having a hard time getting bought by legitimate dealerships so seller are going the private route. Take a look at the Marketplace and one can see several examples of these.

Sold for USD $$, and it was an out right sale. I actually purchased a 2020 GTR roadster in Graphite Magno with 2 ton gray and Black interior, I am in love....
