I have a close friend in the market for a 2004 SL 500, new. We are in the Dallas area. The prices, of course, are pretty high. What is the market for these and is there a lot of room for negotation? Where does one start in figuring out how to price one? He is looking at the base model. He has seen base prices of $89k and $91k. He is willing to buy in nearby cities, even as far as Austin. Is it worth his while to put together what he needs and send out a request to nearby dealers for prices?
Any info is appreciated.
