Question Pre-Owned GL450 purchase!!

I need some assistance! I'm about to purchase a GL450 LOADED. it has 46k miles and is in excellent condition. The asking price was 36900 but he came down to 35000.00 It has the nav, big 19 or 20 inc tires, sunroof in front and back, leather etc....

Is this a good price? I'm going crazy thinking if this is a good price..

I need some feed back quickly!!!

Did you see the window sticker? Window sticker will tell you how many options does the vehicle has, since it has a 46k miles, I highly recommend that you purchase an extended warranty, repair on these vehicles is way too high if they break.

i guess that is about the average price for 2007 GL450s. I have been looking for a couple of weeks. I was going to guess that it was a 2007 but if you had said it was a 2008, i think it would have been a good price though alot of miles for a 2008. take a look at this one.

http://www.ckautogroup.com/07gl450.htm

it is one of the lower prices that i found. this also has lo jack. there a couple lower prices but this also had the premium package. In fact, i went to see the car and it was very nice. I found that most of the ones for sale are from used car dealers. there is not much for sale by the owner.

GL 450
I'm selling my wife's 07 Gl450, black on black which has about 29,200 miles and still is under MB bumper to bumper warranty. The Jeep is too big for my wife to drive, which she realized after she purchased it.


It's loaded with features such as a Mercedes' CommandNavigation System, MB Bluetooth System, Rear Seat DVD Entertainment with Dual Headrest Monitors, Dual Moonroof, Power Rear Liftgate, Power Folding Third Row Seating, Rear Climate Control,Sirius Satellite Radio, Harman Kardon Logic 7 Sound System with 6CD Changer, dual power seats with three position memory for the driver and passenger, Heated seats for driver and front passenger and Mercedes Parktronic System. It has a full factory warranty until March 5, 2011 or the accumulation of 50,000 miles. I have two master keys as well as the original carpeted floor mats along with weatherproof mats and cargo mat plus the cargo cover, the navigation disc, and all the books and manuals the car came with.....the jeep has never been in any accidents nor does it have any mechanical problems. I also have the carfax report which is perfect as well. Don't just take my word for it, carfax it urself.......The Vin # is 4JGBF71E17A204607.

Im selling it for $45,000, which is slightly negociable. The SUV is parked in an underground parking of the building of where we live and is well pampered from everyday weather. I can send detailed pics of the jeep if your interested. I have a clean and clear title on hand. If you have any questions, feel free to email at AkknightMD@yahoo.com. Thank you.

@ Angelglo: Thanx for the info...That looks just like the one I'm going to pick-up tomorrow. That a good price for that mileage! I suppose to pick-up the car tomorrow but am now having second thoughts...Thanx (LoL). I'm going to speak to this guy and re-negotiate the price a bit. I've been looking and I have noticed many of the GL 450's that have the same mileage as the one I'm looking to purchase are going for that price or a little more. I'm still in the ball park but I would feel better if I could get a few hundred dollars off...Also, this will be my very FIRST Mercedes purchase. I hope this SUV will treat both myself and my family well. There's 6 of us, so the room/space that this provides is definitely a plus.

The best Manheim price for a car with about 30K miles is about $40K.
Are you sure you bought 2009 ? We are too old to beleive in fairy tales )
Anyway...congrats and enjoy.

Am I sure?
Yes, I'm sure...dealer even threw in the wheel/tires and windshield warranty for free, so if a wheel or tire or chip/cracked windshield...they are replaced for free, not repaired, replaced. The reason I believe I got this deal is because this dealer-ship is relocating and I think they were trying to miminize inventory.

That is a smokin' deal. They lost out on around $10K. Their loss is your gain. At least you should stay in front of depreciation for a while.

^^^What he said

If he needed to get rid of it for relocating he could have dumped it to another dealer for at least 5k more than selling to you.

Have a good body shop look it over...I bet it's been wrecked.

30k for an 09 with 32k miles is too good to be true. Better check the title and under the hood
