I wrote this in another thread---

I guess if there was a stupendous fire sale I might try it but thats just not going to happen IMHO.

If something doesnt know what its going to be or compete with, it better be priced correctly at the least.

10000000% it doesnt and thats why these cars are all sitting... which I love because the MBUSA is going to need to throw down trunk cash to move them.

I have one for 198k msrp with full triple net discount (12%) and will see what the trunk monies are. Ill guess 20k and then the car will be priced right.

Its like the 2020/2021 versions or our M8's where the base was 130k and then the comp package was a 13k add on and now its 134k all in (mine was 130k all in as an early 23).

The SL has rear end issues along with an identity crisis as its too heavy to be a true performer yet not elegant enough to gather its current ask ---IMHO
