I've got a deep love for this car long term but i would like to have everyone's opinion on when to pick up one on the downward trend of the depreciation curve.
I would like a roadster in brown with tan interior. Preferably a 2013 gt

 

yeah, they are sinking like a rock....would love to own one myself someday.

 

The depreciation on them is nuts. Maybe the Black Series will hold up better though.

 

Looking for one right now. Just haven't found the right color. If anyone has one for sale, please PM me.

 

PM sent!

 

Thanks!

 

like a stone

 

They will all sink like rocks for the time being.
GT, and black series included. The ''final edition'' as well.

None of them will go up in value until many many years from now.

If you're looking to keep this as a collectors item, you might wanna keep it for 20+ years!

 

That's precisely why I want to wait a couple of years before I buy one so that someone else takes the depreciation hit

 

I think once the new AMG GT sports car (the one that will more or less replace the SLS) drops onto the market in a year or so and the supply of new SLS AMGs dries up, SLS prices will probably begin to stabilize.

I'm sure the new AMG GT will be a blast to drive, since it's supposed to be more compact, lighter, and use the new 4.0 liter twin-turbo V8 making at least 500 horses - but I think its arrival will have a positive effect on SLS values. The AMG GT won't have a naturally aspirated engine, it won't have gulling doors, and it'll be price a rung lower than the SLS was - all of which, I think, will add up to people beginning to appreciate the SLS more.

So I'd say your best time to buy would be as soon as Mercedes-Benz reveals the new AMG GT.
