Global search for Certified Pre-Owned AMG?

Is there an easy way to search US dealer inventory for CPO Mercedes? The mypreownedmercedes.com was a great resource but no longer works. Maybe I'm not looking deep enough, but it seems the Mercedes website will only let you search local dealers one at at time. Not the easiest way to find a CPO AMG 63 wagon..

This is a great question, as we were searching we could not figure how to do a global search either maybe reaching out to a local dealer. But they all seem hesitant to do a locate on a CPO. Maybe they have the same issue in the search.

Pretty interesting....
The way it USED to work was, you hit http://www.mypreownedmercedes.com/ which was a global search of ALL CPO cars within a certain mileage range (this is how I found and purchased mine).

Going to http://www.mypreownedmercedes.com/ now does not return the same results, and is a redirect to http://motortrak.auto/ (which doesn't do what you want - search all CPO cars).
I first thought the domain name expired and motortrak purchased it, but it was last updated on Dec 22, 2015

This is what the page returned when it worked



I can't think of any logical reason for them to change how it worked.....

That was it. I can see why Mercedes would want to support their local dealers by connecting them with local customers, but it does no good when searching for rare cars like the E63 AMG wagon. There were generally five or less at any given time on that search site before it was canned. Really poor move.

Yeah, bad move. That's what I used to find my car. I can understand why they're doing it, and makes sense if you were looking for a run of the mill MB (ie E350, ML350), but it only hurts them on a niche vehicle like an AMG. Cars like ours will just sit on the lot longer.

I noticed the same loss in functionality. So in my search I have been using both autotrader.com and cargurus.com. Both of them allow you to filter on CPO cars nationally.
