But its "rare"

 

I live in LA and want to go to the auction. Am I allowed to go with a dealer there and how do I find someone to take me. Can you just give someone 1-2K and have them get you a car there? Any suggestions would be appreciated, looking to get a DB-9

I rather like it actually. I'd go for it. Do my eyes need testing?

Samuel, the dealer is not supposed to take you in, but there are ways around it, but most people are not going to waste the time to do it. I personally would not buy something like a DB9 for a customer for 1~2K, too much work and liability for that little $. Most buyers premiums are usually ~ 5%, I believe. Your best bet would be to post an ad on craigslist and see if some dealer would do this for you. Here are some recent DB9 sales to give you an idea of where they are at.

Any thoughts at what price the Bentley GT Convertible will bottom out at and when?

Seen decent ones go for 120 at the auction.

So picking up a 2004 Neptune Blue on black with 15k miles for ~71k seems about right for retail then....? As long as the car passes PPI @ a Bentley dealer.

A 2004 what? Continental GT or db9?

In Florida manheim and the high line auctions are strictly for selling, NOT BUYING!

 

 

In other words, you have to buy from John Q Public (outside of any auction), to buy at true wholesale prices ?

Thanks, appreciate the tip, I'll try that. I'm liking those 06 numbers, I'm guessing they can only go down.

So cheap there...you guys are lucky! A Gallardo for 60k euro...WOW

We are lucky if we can buy a 350Z or a Boxster here for 60k LOL

Yes all 04's, not sure about the blue, sometimes it gives the correct factory color codes and sometimes not.

Here is an 06 that sold yesterday at the DFW highline sale, I saw the car a couple weeks ago and briefley looked at it. It looked pretty nice, but I did not "pick it" to death it was Gray/Black...Convertible

 

2006 ASTON MART DB9 GRAY 2 12 Gas A 2 Y CD CV L 20,720 $61,500

 

Many models leveled about 45 days ago , and have actually gone up slightly. The Gallardo and Continental GT are two examples of them. Many cars were cheaper 90 days ago. It is "selling season" though, and it happens most every year.

Exotic Cars took the "Double Whammy" since the ecomoic crumble happened during the "off season" of selling where prices are usual a little lower anyway.

 

In regards to the Riverside auction:Those prices do not include auction fees, transportation back to the dealer, and then any service or reconditioning work.

 

Many dealers will bring a car to the auction with a clutch just starting to show signs of slipping or low friction plate readout, especially if it is from a dealer.

The bank lane with returned leases was my favorite to buy from. People who leased cars and then returned them to the lender seemed to take the best care of an auctioned vehicle and the miles were low since they didn't want to be penalized for additional mileage.

 

Repos-you never know-sometimes they know the bank is coming for their car, and they really get the most out of it before they grab it. That would be referring to clutch wear and tires.

 

Two good indicators {that hold true most of the time} when looking at a car car are the tires and the interior. Here's a little more detail. If the tires are completely worn out , unevenly worn, mismatched, or really cheap tires it is a good indicator that the owner was not the type of owner you would prefer to buy from. If the interior is just looks phenomenal, it usually means the owner was very picky about everything on his car, and that would go as far as maintenance also. If the interior is unkept, and scratches in the leather and console with dirty guage faces and inside of windshield, most likely that vehicle was not well maintained and he also would have been more abusive to the car. These are generalizations of course, but I have bought hundreds of vehicles at auctions, and was used car manager for many years appraising trade ins, and this held true, since I would run the cars trhough my shop and retail them. Believe me, if there is a problem down the road from a customer, I would have heard about it. Take it for what it is worth.

Just my 2 cents.

Guys, I'm really seeing prices starting to go back up.

Year, and body type?

 

Something earlier, it will be an offroad and business advertising vehicle, employees would be driving it so cheaper the better. Just want the visability. I would prefer a wagon as my last open top was louder than hell, but whatever info you have availible. One of my current company vehicles.
