Local dealer called and wanted my 2021 G63
Got a call from one of my local MB dealers, really good people, bought a few Mercedes from them.
Even was on the list and they offered me a G63 back in November for MSRP, but already had my built to order from another dealer not local.
Anyways, I got a call from my sales guy out of the blue and asked if I wanted a November allocation built to order how I want it. I think it still would be a 2021, but not sure.
So, I don't really know what I should do since I've only had mine for like 4 months, but I'm pretty sure they're gonna offer me like 25-30k over what I paid for it, and I already have a good chunk of mine paid off so it might actually be a good idea to just trade it for basically the same vehicle, but maybe I'll do a different color instead of Arabian Gray and take another 30k off of my loan.
But I have to make sure it makes financial sense, cause if not there is no point since nothing is changing from G to G.
Have any of you had this situation?

I take a new one every-time my dealer calls and offers me one....
I have standing order with them, any time one comes up I will buy it and trade my used one back to them....pretty much trade a used one for new each time

I mean that's what I'm thinking.? Last time I spoke with him last year they told me they don't do ADM on them, but who knows. I shoot him a text and see.

If the dealer really offers you $25-30k over sticker and guarantees you delivery in November I would do it for sure. However, I'd be surprised if the dealer offers that much over for trade-in to be honest.
My plan is to trade in every 1-2 years and reset the miles and hopefully go cost neutral like Izzone.

Don't do it, you may not get another. Over on the W213 AMG section they are posting that Mercedes has cancelled all the V8 AMG's for 2022 including G wagons.
Looks like Jalopnik picked that up too. https://jalopnik.com/mercedes-benz-w...amg-1847484393

Is this confirmed or just rumored? I can't find anything official but if it is I may chase down a g63 this weekend even if I have to pay a semi unreasonable ADM... they'll sell next year for whatever you pay.

Only reason I'd do it considering I have a 2021, is that they give me more than I paid, and they give me the new one at MSRP.
That way it reduce my loan my 20-30k and I'd pay it off much sooner.

Or Mercedes decides to cut the 21's short and you wind up with no car. I would not feel to comfortable with the way things are these days. Either way it's not my choice, good luck with your decision.

So they are going to wait for yours until the new one is built? If that the case then definitely a no brainer. I would part with my 2021 E63S for 30 over in a heart beat. $30,000 is a fraction of $ I have waisted over my lifetime on cars haha.
