2004 SL55 AMG 38,200 MI 1OWNER $40,500!!!

I am an autobroker in Dallas TX and I'm selling my personal car at wholesale. I understand that the market is in a slump and lenders are tight as it is so my wholesale price should allow most lenders to have some cushion. I have some decent photos below. I bought the car from an auction so I don't know much on the history. I do know that Carfax showed the car to have had a light hit from front but not severe. Under close inspection you can see the signs of repaint but nothing noticable if you are not looking. I had 1 potential buyer from out of state send an inspector and it passed. The inspector also noted that the bumper had been repainted but no damage below or to the structure of the car. He assumed it was most likely a touch up or complete bumper replacement. I would prefer a local buyer but out of state is fine. Feel free to send an inspector(at your cost). If there are any questions please feel free to call or email me anytime. Please understand that this is the bottom dollar on price and I can not go lower. Thanks for looking.

best of luck on sale... what is the point of stating how much he paid for his car... he has a right to ask whatever he wants for his car... all he needs is one person who really likes the car and the price...

Although I'm sure he appreciates you bumping his topic to the top of the forums, please, fellas, keep your ethical symmantics to yourselves. It's understandable to discuss why someone would sell a car, but to discredit a seller based on comparison of business practices is qiute naive.

clean car though. Unfortunately the mismatched parts and history of a front end collision are not things I'm willing to compromise with on an S-class AMG. Best of luck on your sale Z.
