2009 GL450 - up to 25K miles good condition - $40K-$41KOriginally Posted by yumchajai
Can someone please post Manheim prices for 2009-2011 GL450 or GL550?Thanks!
2009 GL550 - the same condition - $48K-$50K
2010 GL450 - up to 20K miles - $44K-$45K
2010 GL550 - the same - $57K
2011 GL450 - 15K miles - $51K-$52K
2011 GL550 the same cond - $71K
More mileage - less price.
I hope it helps.
P.S. Prices are for auction condition "above" and as alx correctly stated - vehicle options unknown from auction report
Providing auction data about vehicles that can have lots of options to a non- professional is doing them a bad service. It can and is confusing. What is the point of seeing that a vehicle in average condition sold for 40k when options are not known? (and no- there is no option data included with sale data). 40k can be a rip off for a base truck and can be a steal for truck with package 2.
Now the 550 is another story as it comes in one trim level so it is always apples to apples. Yet a dealer can overbid for one If he has a customer lined uP. So clear cases can be confusing too.
So... I don't Provide auction data anymore to the public as most folks have no ability to draw any meaningful conclusions from it.
The best price research can be done using autotrader and cars.com and determining fair pricing based on vehicles with known options and making sure you are not overpaying based on the average price for similarly equipped vehicles.
Just a few random thoughts.

- THIS CERTIFIED GL HAS THE PREMIUM II PKG
- PARKTRONIC
- LIGHTING PKG

- HEATED AND ACTIVE VENTILATED SEATS(ANOTHER RARE OPTION) KEYLESS GO

they are 43-45k in this particular truck. if it is a local trade in (which it prolly is) they might be 41-42k in it as they always make the most money on tradein. Originally Posted by yumchajai

so i would say that at 47k this will be a decent deal.
show up there, take it for a test drive and tell them you are willing to offer 47k _today_. go there asap as it is the end of the month and this is in your favor if you close the deal before jul 1st.
let them bump you to 47.5 or so or walk away.

Things didn't quite work out as plan. I went there and they wouldn't budge below 48k. Originally Posted by alx

Meanwhile I see the dealer dropped the GL price to $45.8K, which I would have bought at the time.
