I can't find what I want. Sold my 04 SL500 for 17k, despite the electrical problems she has. I simply can't find what I'm looking for around me. Just looking for a newer SL, black with beige interior. That or a 350Z same black on beige interior.

Last time I bought a car I just brought some paperwork to justify what I thought the car they had and the car I was trading in were worth what I asked and everything went smoothly >->

You're lucky chill, I had to go back and for with one guy then I said fuck it and left after a total of 4 hours, then I found out my friend's brother works at a dealership, I made one phone call and I was done so I hope he is still working there if I have to buy another car.

I'd love to do that but the a new Mercedes just isn't in the budget. The new AMG similar to the SL500s is over a hundred grand. You'd think there'd be a bunch of the SLs in Arizona and there are but not the one I'm looking for.

It's pretty easy

1. Get financing and a letter of credit from a bank
2. Find a car you like
3. Find out a fair price for the car (truecar is great)
3. Email dealer and ask for out the door price with all fees broken out.
4. Negotiate
5. Get a price you like or walk away
6. If you buy, Show up and sign

Car buying is only as hard as you make it, theres so many ways to make it hassle free, my first car which I bought brand new was hassle free 5 months ago without any of the bs people hate when looking for a car.

Yeah I'm making it harder on myself because of what I'm looking for. There's a 2013 SL550 in Colorado that has what I'm looking for. Miles are low and the colors are exactly the way I want it. I may just have to bite the bullet and go for it. I was just hoping to stay in state but can't always get it your way.

You could also be less picky, your looking for a mercedes benz, a luxury car.

Yeah a lot of the frustration I'm dealing with is because of my own picky'ness. A lot of the SLs I'm looking at that are black have black interior, which here in Arizona isn't the best idea. I have black leather in my Trailblazer and it's awful. Bitch is always so hot inside. My SL that I sold also had black interior and it was awful. My wife has a Yukon Denali with beige interior and it much cooler on the inside. We're from Michigan so heat wasn't much of a problem when we bought our cars. Most of the SLs with beige interior are maroon which is a color I can't stand.
