Wink Car shopping

Well, I am going car shopping today with my girlfreind. I have a couple specific dealers I am visiting today in Ft Lauderdale that sell Mercedes and maybe a couple listed in the trader..... Tommorrow I am going to see in MIami a 91 300E with about 100K miles 1 owner, white...and a 92 300E also 1 owner, and this one he said he changed the water pump and the evaporator and has had all maintainance done by the local MB dealer in Coral Gables.

I am also going to see two other make/models that are in the final running....NO, not BMW .

I'll post tommorrow what I find.....

Wish me luck......

Good Luck. Be patient. With the economy in the shape its in, you should be able to find some great deals on used cars - particularly from people who overextended themselves on credit and then got downsized.

I've been tempted on several good deals recently, but we have enough cars and are just going to stay with current inventory.

Hey, good luck!

I haven't heard from you in a while so I thought you either gave up or purchased a BMW.

You should get a great deal. Cars sure have been depreciating recently.

Also, remember this maxim, "There is nothing more expensive than a cheap Mercedes".

It is always a better idea to pay a high price for a clean, good condition, well-maintained (with receipts) MB, than a cheap Mercedes that is tired and needs some work to bring it back to life.

In the end, the cheap Mercedes will cost you siginificantly more money.
