The higher used car prices enhanced my trade-in value (equity) and this was a good age/trade point. My old car was detailed and went immediately to their front line-up. I was told it sold in two days.
Technical stuff: Mercedes has done a major refresh of the SL line from the R231 design (my car) to the R232 (2022). Gone is the convertible folding origami hard-top replacing it with a cloth soft-top. There is the addition of a miniature backseat (2+2) and AWD. Also AMG has taken over the line now badging the SL as AMG 55 and AMG 63. Starting at $137,400 and $178,100 MSRP respectively; a significant price increase. I am not sold on the soft-top nor the price differential, thus my preference for the older design. See how America influenced the 2022 Mercedes AMG SL.
As Rhonda, I worked with a Daniella, a kind and no-pressure sales person and ultimately we struck a mutual deal. I was introduced around and had another no-pressure experience with the closing person, Barry. Deal done, Daniella insisted on the ribbon photo; "Oh must there be photos?"
Of course all the paperwork was accomplished with my legal name, but no one blinked and there were many feminine type hugs at closing. This car-buying experience was likely my less stressful and best all around ever.
Just another example of how visibility adds to our acceptance.
