Great way to value cars
Great way to value cars. I took the pics and vital details for one or two car models and worked out value. OTOH, buying a car remotely is very difficult. I waited and found a great deal locally basing the price on what I saw at auction. I think this site could do that as an additional profitable service to its customers. When i showed the seller the results of my pricing, he agreed with me and lowered his price! PS I did this with the Mercedes SLK 55 and SLK 350. Im a retired German car mechanic, shop teacher and electrical engineer. Been around cars all my life. Assembled around 25 or more auctions on the 55’s and 350’s with their pictures, mileage, extras and final price or bid. Was easy to see values, trends in mileage or features vs value, etc! An app for this would probably be cool! Ended up with a 2010 facelift SLK 350 w/27,000 miles. Just got 25mpg on a hi speed trip with the 300hp motor! Fuel was just too expensive to own the SLK 55 with its wonderful V8 as a daily driver! Managed a large fleet of exotics plus a successful race team for a large corporate outfit!
