28,000 miles, but only 19,500 crack pipes.

What does Oppo think?

If its emotional, then yes Nice.

But rational says buy a Versa Note.

Emotional just stabbed rational with a stapler, so yes, bring on the Merc

There are many other things I'd rather pay $19,500 for.

Have they never heard of legendary AMG depreciation? My first though was that Bling-bling must be selling this, although after a minute I realized that while pretty high, their asking price isn't absurdly far off and would be reasonable in maybe 5-6 years. But this isn't 2020, right now, crackpipe.

Actually, that's fairly reasonable. And awesome. And rare. It's not just any '97 Benz.

Is this one of those ads that represents other things? Like a kilo of cocaine to turn into crack for the pipe?

Good thing pipes are only 25 cents. After 19.5 for this, I'm broke.

I agree that it may be a future classic and there may be a market for it out there. But $15-ishk sounds more reasonable to me.

It's only 'a fraction of its 'original sticker' price.' NO shit. A used car doesn't sell for the same as a new car. The things you learn in Washington DC...

It's a little steep, but not insane.

crack pipe. it's a great car, but not enough miles. Too much will need replacing in a rather short time, given the next owner will likely drive it a lot more.

That's a great point that lots are going to have to be replaced once the miles start to rack up.

CP. You can get a V12 Benz for $5k-$10k.

I would gladly take one with quadruple the miles in a heartbeat, but that one will need a lot of rubber and bearing replacements coming up very soon.

I would love to have this car but there's no way its worth even half of what he's asking. These sell in the Pacific Northwest on occasion for 3-7k, average condition. Trust me, I know this. I follow 90's AMG prices like Warren Buffett follows the stock market.
