Tell me your secret of how you sold in a day. I can't seem to get anyone to step up and my car is mint. I don't get it. Maybe its my location because any interest I get is just online and no one actually comes to see the car.

Car is Certified Pre-Owned, is Black on Black, which is the hottest combo in SoCal, basically brand new and was priced right.

I had six clients looking for one and he was one them. He was local guy who was able to make a move. One drive in SL65 and the car sold itself.

That's one good reason I'm not driving one of those.

Didn't you just buy it 3 months ago? Why selling so soon?

No, I have had mine over a year. I just got a Bentley GTC but since I haven't sold the SL and have an opportunity to make a few bucks on the GTC that might be what needs to happen. Doesn't matter to me but I can't believe their isn't a stronger market for these cars at these prices.

and to trade-in too. If someone gave me the right money for my 55 and offered me a 65 for the right money I would jump.

The Secret to SL65 Sales. Location, Location.

The "Secret" is South Orange County California.
I had a conversation with Rob Allen AMG Product Manager
when I was at the AMG Challenge in May this year.
There are more AMG`s sold in So Cal than anywhere else in the world.
Like 40% of all AMG`s go to California. And 70% of those go to Sothern California and 70% of those go to Orange and San Diego County.

So Vadim is in a great location in Laguna Niguel.
