Average sale prices on Manheim auctions are 76-82k. If they offer any less than that Id walk.

my frd is looking for E55 ...dealer has a demo with like 1xxx miles 2005 model for 78000

yeah..its a good trade...although we didnt get as much as 10,000 discount like u did...we bought the SL500 for like 84860 pretax....so i believe i didnt take such a big hit in depreciation!
