new SL65 owner

Have to say I love this car

Its a CPO car with 17,000 miles. Has a clean service history. I love watching people do the double take when they see the v12 biturbo badge on the side Ive had it for about a month but have been too busy to post. So far no issues. I paid 69K with the 3yr added warranty.

Question Depreciation?

I plan to enjoy driving the wheels off of my 2005 SL65, but anyone have opinion on what these 2005-2008 cars will be selling at in 2 years.....45K for 2005 in 2011? Just asking for opinions, no criticism of steep depreciation with these cars...........they are great values for us that do not want to spend 200k for a new car and can find a great 4 year old clean one for a third of the price......

I think SL65s' are the most depreciated $200k cars in the world...good for me...

I bought mine for 63K with 25K miles with new brake pads and tires done......perfect shape........no issues 3 k miles since...great for all of us that buy pre-owned luxury cars! Didn't want to wait until the model was 6 or 7 yeasr old and major issues, etc..I have done that with several Porsches with great luck and enjoyment realized)
