UH-Matt Report post Posted July 29, 2010 Generally on a like for like car in terms of miles and year is the SL worth more than a Spyder. Was just comparing my Orange Spyder (07) with a white SL (08) and there is a fairly big price hike... is that right? Any thoughts?

kmr Report post Posted July 29, 2010 08 Spyder I wouls say would be about even, seems with the 560 SL's coming out the 08 SL's are dropping a bit or just the fact that more are popping up. Options/miles obv will make the difference. Just my .02 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
UH-Matt Report post Posted July 29, 2010 This is UK but the dealer with the 08 white SL wants another ~ $25k with my 07 spyder (well spec'd) seems its a little steep to me... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chipster Report post Posted July 29, 2010 A year different. And you dont say what the mileages are. That does seem a little high but the SL is more rare. Just depends what it's worth to you Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
UH-Matt Report post Posted July 29, 2010 Mileages are equal..! I guess there is also the dealer vs private aspect, but still! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
empunker Report post Posted July 29, 2010 Perhaps it's because the SL is 1 year newer, and the production numbers for Spyders are much higher than the SL (especially a white SL, very limited in white). Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
djantlive Report post Posted July 29, 2010 also desirability plays into a factor. spyders are not as desirable as coupe, not to mention SL. having said that, SL prices are continuing to drop as new LP570 is out now. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
PCJR Report post Posted July 29, 2010 I tend to disagree with the new SL effecting the old SL pricing. The new SL loaded is over 280K US. Used low mileage SL's are holding steady at 140 - 150's. If anything, used 560's will potentially impact the ols SL values more. BTW, an 08 SL is a more aggressive driving car than an 07 spider...worth the upgrade if that is your thing!

Rico Report post Posted August 4, 2010 I assume the $25k difference is you Trading in the car for the SL at the dealer? Worth giving a specialist like Dion at www.elmscollection.com a call. He'll be able to get you a better price for your Spyder, then source a SL with less mark up than a main dealer. Top guy to deal with.
