Browsing around ebay, I found this:

I think Mercedes Benz has the worst resale value ever... which is a good thing for us buyers

Any know of other hot cars that are depreciating crazy like this one?

i don't think an sl65 is 200,000k new, maybe 150,000. but the first few years is where a car depreciates the most, so i'm not surprised..

Damn Amer you Baller!!! Can't believe you are browsing at cars like that SL65! Why even consider a S2000 when you can have your eye on $150,000 plus vehicle? You must bring that car out if you get it.

No way I can afford this thing

It only inspired me to consider a car like this down the road since its like a 50% discount used

MSRP is $180,375 new with options plus fees comes out over $200,000!

Am I the only one who thinks this is a steal (assuming we could afford one)

yes a steal but considering MB is now owned ( partnered) with Chrysler there reliability has gone down. I know way too many people with MB that are always having service done.

Never been much of a MB fan. My family has always been into them though. I think they like them more for the "prestige" more than anything.

For $83,000 - I'm more of a Corvette ZO6 fan My brother just picked up a new 911 Carrera S though and I must say, I was very impressed with the handling of that car!

So many choices, yet, no money!

I wish.........car is going to be a garage queen. I was surprised he even let me drive it. I properly broke the car in for him though
