I know I don’t have to tell you how to close the deal. Make them a cash offer. That BS has been on the site for at least 6 months…maybe more.
With the economy getting softer they need to get rid of it to eliminate their floor plan cost.
Good Luck.

They just put their white car on ebay asking $420. I don't think it will move for that, but tells you where the market is going.
There are a bunch for sale, so a buyer's market, for now.
I suspect at some point, when the available inventory dries up (meaning the speculators get out), these fabulous cars will appreciate in value.
The price curve on limited production cars is pretty typical:
When they first come out and are hard to get, prices way above MSRP.
Later, as many sell, and guys who couldn't get one early got theirs, prices go down (where we are now)
Later they go back up when there are few available (and no longer produced), as the limited cars stay in hands of long term owners.
Seen it with so many cars over the years: Ford GT, LFA, Carrera GT, SLS Black ....
I love mine. Hope to never sell it.

Yes...the only comps I have from BAT from this year are 49 and 51k over MSRP. That puts this white one at 390k tops with a downward market. The last one did not meet reserve at 375k total. Not sure if anyone has other comps outside of BAT. Wonder if any of these went through Manheim etc.

Sorry I don't have any comps. I think most are trading privately (dealers etc..), so hard to tell.
FWIW I wish I only paid $50k over, but I bought one of the very few 1 off colors, so I'm happy, and don't intend on selling it.
I think it's a good time to find one. If you haven't seen the breakdown of US production by color, I can post it up.
BTW DonDraper - v. nice collection in your signature.

Also only 350 cars came to the US for a full production of 1700?? Will there be a point where we see a lot of these Euro LHD cars start coming into the US?

Been posted elsewhere before, so I didn't create it. Interesting in that there were 8 one-off colors (1 of which I luckily snagged).
You commented on Euro cars coming to the US. My limited experience with other Black series has been that more cars seem to leave the US to Europe/Middle East, as Black Series seem to be more in demand there than here. When I looked for my SLS Black (searched for a long time), I would call on cars that popped up for sale, and many were quickly sold to overseas buyers.
Total AMG GT Black Series heading to the USA = 371.
I do not know if there is a firm number on total produced worldwide. Historically 30-40% seem to come to the US, so the 1700 number may be correct?

He’s down to $420 now.
Make an offer and I’ll bet its yours

Is there an inventory of things that are supposed to come with the car
1. car keys
2. car cover
3. trickle charger.
what else?
I am seeing some things in small neon green bags. What does a full set look like?

I wondered the same thing when I bought my car. I can't find my list of stuff, but I did find this photo on my phone. I think someone posted the list previously.
FWIW, an owners manual is near unobtanium weirdly. MB no longer prints them. You can download it on your phone or view in car on screen via menus. Annoying

I can't remember what all the stuff is. I found a list somewhere of what came with it back when I bought my car a year ago.
Hopefully you can search here and find a similar list.
If I was going to be at my toybox anytime soon, I would check for you, but will be a few weeks unfortunately.

I didn't take the photo - it was sent to me by someone when I was trying to figure out what the car came with (consequently I don't have the yellow links).
Yes on shims.
Somewhere I found a list of what it should come with when I was shopping. Just can't find it now (only found the photo).
