emoving: yes we are very aggressive when it comes to getting more listings on our website. The rarer the car; the more we want it. I directed you to Sandra because she is the one selling the car, not me. I felt this car belonged on MBWorld and I posted it here. You say we "flood the internet forums with ads" that may be the case. We spend a great deal of money every month advertising on this website and other luxury car websites; we do this to attract buyers for our clients cars. Sandra actually listed her Mercedes ML with us first then called to list her CLS. Her contact info is clearly posted in the original ad to avoid confusion and allow you to make the offer directly to the seller. You claim "The buck stops after the ad!" that is false... Use this thread as an example; after she placed the advertisement we listed the car on a few enthusiast forums to try and reach more buyers for her car. We could have listed it on our website and called it a day. Also, I have commented on this particular post after I originally created the thread. I monitor the threads to the best of my ability however between 20 sites and 800 cars per month it can get busy. I can guarantee you autotrader or cars.com wont go out of there way to offer you anything but a listing on our website. And about the "bogus info" I am sorry that I did not double check the stats before posting what my client emailed me. I assumed they were correct and for that I apologize.
I believe these are the correct stats: Horsepower 507 / Torque 465

fwiw the owners (previous owner) were very nice and honest. might not be the more hardcore car person, but they (husband and wife) were very up front with any issues they noticed. the car had front suspension replaced (leak) before warranty ended, and right before selling the car, they had the center vents replaced (broken) and the rear brake job done (front brake job done few thousand miles before).
front bumper had a crack at the bottom, front lower air dam mesh got pushed in right in the middle. there is a scratch / ding on the passenger side, driver seat shows noticeable wear. navigation map was never updated.
either way, i am sure the new owner likes it

Well kudos to Global for a professional and drama free retort. Nothing hurts a business more than a shoot from the hip emotional reply. Global - you will have a shot at my business before I post my next car on ebay. The professionalism is commendable.
