ATL_ Report post Posted December 8, 2015 I have noticed. SLR pricing seems to be all over the place. The car market in general is pretty over done at the moment IMO. Hard to be a buyer in this market. I absolutely believe the SLR is one to have long term, though. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnN Report post Posted December 10, 2015 Not long ago you could get early SLS coupes all day for 120ish. Now 175ish... SLR is funny. Totally all over the place. Should've grabbed a 4k mile 06 that was for sale locally for 175 when i had the chance... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chipster Report post Posted December 10, 2015 Oh wow. I always thought used 2011s were around 140. There are some on ebay for 140s Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeff SD Report post Posted December 14, 2015 I just purchased an SLS Roadster to hold me over until the Huracan Spyder's come out. Good to know I won't take too much of a bath on it Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HannibalACP82 Report post Posted December 20, 2015 I just purchased an SLS Roadster to hold me over until the Huracan Spyder's come out. Good to know I won't take too much of a bath on it Serious question. What does the sls vert offer that an SL vert doesn't? The sls coupe I get because of the doors. The sls vert I never really understood. Now the H spyder I get completely. Just watched DoctaM3s unveil from Chicago and I freaking love the car...soft top and all.

Chipster Report post Posted December 22, 2015 Completely agree. Now an SLR vert I completely get. SLR was on a whole other level of looks. And I love the SLS coupe. But the vert doesn't even look on the same level as an SL65. It looks like an SLK to me. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

bWiLKINS Report post Posted January 5, 2016 Haha wow! From what I can tell that dealership loves to buy stuff from other deals and try and sell it for a ridiculous amount more, I dont know how they manage to sell anything and stay in business.

From what I can tell that dealership loves to buy stuff from other deals and try and sell it for a ridiculous amount more, I dont know how they manage to sell anything and stay in business. They've got a huge client list with money to blow. Many of them are young Chinese kids that sends their vehicles to the shop to be modified. As for the SLR/SLS appreciation, it was already expected. Of the 3 cars the SLR went against, FGT, Enzo, CGT, the Benz is the last one to go up on value. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think bWiLKINS meant Platinum, when he said "loves to buy stuff from other deals and try and sell it for a ridiculous amount more", since they bought the car from SR and are now trying to sell it for a ridiculous amount more Regular SLRs are still struggling to break out, but it will happen eventually. All it will take is Marshall Goldman, CNC or some other large US dealer to buy up 5-6 of them and ask double the current rate... Boom, new market set!

Plastique999 Report post Posted January 13, 2016 You guys got me real interested in the SLS now....I am thinking of a 2011-12 with around 5k miles - seems these are around $170-180k....... I really think the Gullwing concept will hold/appreciate in value - don't think MB will make another Gullwing in a long, long time. It would be cool if it shot up like the 300 SL gullwings did some 20-30 years later - (crystal ball) Trying to decide between this vs. a 599GTB with HGTE .... decisions, decisions Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can PM you their info if you like. Thanks Doc! I hear they are asking close to half mil on these rare manuals.......I missed the boat on this one. Manual market has gone absolutely crazy. Just like I missed the boat on the LP670 SV's - really really want one of those. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
