Autotrader. Unlimited distance search. I found it at a dealer in chicago. They got it at a Manheim auction direct from MB. Cost $1200 covered shipping to South Florida. Still a great deal 4 the car. Puts a smile on my pus everytime I drive it.
It’s almost as if I wrote this post. I have been watching this market for the last few months as well and have the same feelings about a 2022 lemon buyback..
I did a little digging into it and it seems like the reason behind a lot of these lemon cars in the 2022 model year was due to roof issues and/or other electrical gremlins. Apparently the issue was fixed with software updates and these cars are fine now.
I agree that it feels like a lot of car ($200k+ MSRP) for well under $100k. I think if you bought one was for $75k, kept it for 1-2 years, I think you’d still get $60-$65k for it. I don’t see the car dropping down into the 50s for quite some time. In other words I believe the bottom for the next 3-4 years is still above $50k. So it’s a rather safe bet in my opinion.
Also, accident/ salvage title is very different from a lemon buyback and especially if you have documentation regarding the lemon buyback. Remember, people always want a deal. So at that time in 2-3 years from now, if every SL63 is going for $75-95k and yours is asking $50-60k, you will find a buyer.
