Default WANT TO TRADE? My '97 Mercedes SL500 for your Convertible Vette.

My business partner has a nice 1997 Mercedes SL500 Convertible that he wants to trade for a convertible Vette. Appropriate apples to apples values can be assessed to determine who pays who cash difference or if it is an even swap. Here are the details and pics cut-n-paste directly from his ad. You can reply here if interested and I will forward the info to him.

I have driven in this car a few times and it is fine. No mechanical issues and the interior and exterior are in good shape.

...This beautiful red Roadster has a clean carfax showing three owners and regular maintenance history. It has a perfect rich black leather interior and matching black convertible top. Climate control a/c, power top, dual 8-way seats, power head rest, power windows, locks, mirrors, antenna, bose cd stereo system with 6-disc, pop-up roll bar, power tilt, cruise control, alloy wheels, abs brakes, dual airbags, non-smoker, garaged, a california car originally then brought to west palm beach, Only 83256 carefully driven miles, books, keyless remote entry with alarm, this car has been well maintained and runs perfect very dependable and reliable a lot of fun to drive !! reduced price $13,900.00 obo reduced 4-9-08 a really nice example...

You might have a CHANCE in the C-4 section with a $13,000.00 Trade.
In this section there would be a $30,000.00 difference in prices. And you KNOW who would be paying the difference
GOOD LUCK!!
Being a Dealer you should be able to pick one up at the sales. C-4/ C-5 that is.

Actually GM is more relevant now than most people think; he has a new album and Carrie Underwood did an amazing cover of his "Praying for time" at this year's Idol Gives Back.
