2013 GL550 with Active curve for sale at Carmax $41k

Less than $41k and 40k miles! Very loaded with night vision and Bang and Olfsuen... I backed out when I realized there was no spare tire! Run the VIN at datamb.com - 4JGDF7DE1DA217390 . Also, be advised they replaced the all seasons tires with Hankook which I assume are summer tires

Hi RallyCobra,

I had been stalking this car but it is 2000 miles away from me and did not like the thought of paying $799 to have it shipped across the country. It sounds like you checked it out in person? If so how did the interior and exterior look in person? Any more wear than you would expect in a vehicle with 40K miles that is 5 years old? How did it drive? Any concerns?

Thanks for any insight you can provide.

Oh gosh! I have no idea. I'm on the east coast and was willing to pay $1000 to have it shipped. No spare was a deal killer for me, but it looks like someone scooped it up already. Hopefully it was a forum member, it was a steal with those options at that price.

Ah okay. Did you out a hold(usually 7 days) on the GL? Even if you have told Carmax you are not interested it many times runs the full 7 days of the hold before coming back to active. Let me know. Thanks

I had it on hold, then released it and it popped back up. If you didn't get it it is gone! Sorry, maybe someone else will back out and it will pop up again. If you are seriously interested call them and ask about it. They will tell you the status
