Exclamation My Bringatrailer.com auction overviews

Hey folks, I decided to create this new thread to post links to my Bringatrailer.com auction overviews. I'm not working for them. I'm not doing overviews of every Benz, just the ones I like the most.

Today they have a nice low mileage pre-facelifted 2004 SL55 AMG auction that ends in a few hours.

Please give me your feedback about my videos.

Thanks. You don’t work for them.

Are you a consultant or independent contractor for them?

What compensation do you receive, directly or indirectly from BaT?

I don't work for BaT and they even blocked few of my posts there because I posted links to my YT videos where I did live streams of their auctions etc. I don't receive any compensation from anyone for what I'm doing. My YouTube channel is my hobby that requires time and money to create and edit videos, and so far I made $0.00 doing this stuff. Even YouTube monetization option is currently unavailable till I reach 1000 subs lol! 😂

SLR McLaren! It continues legacy of the legendary Mercedes-Benz 300 SLR! I didn't know it was $500 000 when new!

Beautiful 2008 CLK63 AMG Black Series! I'd personally buy a silver or a white one, but this car is a gem! And a great investment!

The epic SL65 Black Series was just sold on BaT for $405 plus 5% BaT fee. Shiт is real!! I think these cars will hit $500K mark in the next 5-10 years:

New overview! Very nice and clean pre-facelifted C63. No P30 package but can you live without it and just install LSD and aftermarket steering wheel separately?

Does the best or nothing mean V12 Twin-Turbo or nothing?

This place is a joke.
Hopefully one day they'll be exposed for the shill bidding and non-paying bidders driving up fake prices that are rarely disclosed.

Make a video about this one:

https://bringatrailer.com/listing/20...sport-wagon-9/

Why is a 140k mile car that's had half a bad paint job on their site? Are they catering to repeat wholesalers who buy turds at auction, detail them and flip for massive profits?

Thanks for comment bro! I may do a video about it. But I like to focus on AMG cars. Usually, I'm not into wagons since I prefer sedans and coupes. Personally I don't know if I'll ever buy an E55 wagon or E63 wagon. There are times I like them but then I change my mind lol!

But that particular 140K-mile E350 looks boring... I think they may be selling it there because "People like wagons". I think that car shouldn't cost more than 10-15K but I'm not familiar with the E350 wagon market.

Not exactly an auction overview. I may hurt someone's feelings about G-Wagons (or G-Wagens), but I think that G320 is overpriced. What do you think?

I did in-person quick overview video of this 1997 S500. Very clean and nice car.

Fellas, if you want me to do an online review an AMG car listed anywhere please let me know.
