Sell it to someone who wants a nice well maintained GL320.

Why let the dealer take a couple of K from you and a couple of K from the other guy just to wash and wax it?

Well there's the tax advantage to trading it in, plus the hassle factor, but a private sale is an option if I have the time.

Taxes are about 2K, and you should easily get that.

Try looking at KBB or NADA to see the difference between low retail and trade in.

P2 does not have Leather. It is a separate option.
