The value of the SLS GW has been been higher given its iconic doors. SLS enthusiasts should watch the Mecum Indy auction tomorrow. A silver SLS BS GW with less than 100 miles will be auctioned, as will a silver 2012 SLS RO with less than 300 miles. These 2 cars represent the most collectable (SLS BS GW) and the best value (2012 SLS RO). Given 31 years of 300SL ownership, I strongly believe that market values are pushed up from the bottom rather than being pulled up from the top. Given that the BS GW is is one of only 7 brought to US in that color, the only thing that will prevent a sale is an overly optimistic reserve in \"COVID-19\" era. Given that the SLS RO is offered at no reserve, we shall seen if the pre auction estimate of $180K+ is merely a pipe dream. BAT bidders will be better informed in the future with these results. MY own SLS has been a \"DreamCome True\"! The new owner of this SLS GW will certainly enjoy it!

At auctions there seems to be a intense feeling when bidding to offer a higher price than the vehicle could have been bought through a dealer. SLS GW's low mileage are listed in the low $140's. With a little negotiation the vehicles could be purchased in the $130's. At Mecum this past week many vehicles sold for overly high prices plus add on Mecum's fee. So, after all said and done the vehicle sold for around $136. Watching auctions at Mecum is like watching a feeding frenzy gone crazy.
