Two SL65's going through Riverside's Highline auction next week. Pretty rare occurrence and a great bargain for anyone in the market for an SL65.

2005 SL65 Black/Black 21,960 miles, PDC, keyless go, Panorama, comfort seats
Minor scratches on the car, hood has been replaced. Under warranty.

2006 SL65 Black/black 10,485 miles, keyless go, panorama, comfort package
Hood replaced, LF and RF fenders replaced. Under warranty.

The 2005 will probably go south of $100k. The 2006 will probably be under $120k.

Don't know the severity of damage or the quality of repairs. Both cars being sold by Mercedes Benz Financial; probably lease turn-in's.

Contact your local used car dealer if you're interested!

The 2005 SL65 went for $88,000
The 2006 SL65 went for $108,500

There was an 2006 S65 that sold for $94,500 and a 2005 CL65 that went for $89,500

Lastly, there was a Mclaren SLR that the seller wanted $320k for.

Thanks for the intel JL.

Does that mean the SLR couldn't catch a bid at 320?

jl88

Highest bid was $317k. The seller wanted $320k. Deal fell through because of **three thousand dollars**

Roughly 1%!

Go figure.

Wow, just wow

Wonder if they went offline to close the deal?

If this sort of a deal fell through over less than 1% of the price, then both parties are rather daft...

jl88

Happens all the time. On lower priced cars, sometimes the difference is $200.

Any idea why the hoods were replaced on both cars? is there an issue with hoods?

jl88

Don't know.

MrBenz55

Sounds a bit silly for the sake of $3000

PimpDadd

LOL -- Its probably Lindsey Lohan's jacked up SL65 thats on the block! :-P

Hey ...

Do you know of any more upcoming auctions for SL65's in this shape? I would love to get my hands on SL65 for $88k~

Im seriously looking so I appreciate any help or tips on how to find out what cars will be passing through auctions.

Mrdredd

I wish I saw this earlier

Mrdredd

OMG!! They just raised the price to $134,895 ... thats WITH the damage you listed.

I always heard Luxury Motors in Chicago were scammers.

They'll never get even close to that much. They would have been lucky to the the 105k even if no one knew about the damage.

I'll post details of any new auctions (Riverside highline is coming next thursday). It is completely random and the X65 models are rare. I'm not an advertiser so I don't want to get banned or my posts removed, but i'll post any information I find and we can go from there.

$134k.... that's hysterical. Good thing I don't call myself a car salesperson :P

Mrdredd

If you find a CL65, I would consider a 2005+ as well as the SL65.
