1993 Mercedes-Benz 300CE from the movie "The Firm"

Nice car, they were very expensive in their day and kept their value for many years after production end. I believe they will be very collectible one day. Neat story behind yours.

No offense, but you should try re-listing it for $10-15k. You might actually sell it for around that. Good luck!

 

Please don't lower it to that little. That would be a crime. Maybe market it better.
Robb Report?

 

81k on the odometer. If you get 15k run with it.

KBB shows value a t just under 8k. I'm sorry but 11k more because it was in a tom cruise movie? Your way off New buyer would have a hard time insuring it for 19k. Even 15k for that matter. Classic scenario that you think your car is worth more than what it really is. All good though. If you enjoy it keep it. I wouldn't pay that kind of money. NADA has it at 12.8k retail.

I really like those. Great cars when Mercedes built great cars. Bit out of my price range at the moment for somthing like that, If I was in your shoes I would keep it and drive it.

 

From what you describe in your ad (refreshingly honest ad btw) this is a condition 2 car because of the repaint and miles. Assuming Hagertys numbers are market correct that would make this car worth around $14k. I don't honestly think the movie aspect gives any added value. At least not to me.
There are lower miles 300CE Cabriolets for sale now with lower miles and original paint etc for the same as your asking if not slightly lower.
I am looking for one of these..as they are great overall cars and should retain value.
Hope this helps.

 

I had one. Sold it at 140K miles for $9K.

Great cars, but dated.

 

I don't get what the point is of giving him a hard time on the asking price. It's his car. He can ask for $1M if he wants. Why does this seem to illicit heckling?

Especially odd responses considering he already stated that he's happy to keep the car if it doesn't turn out to be a must buy for someone else.

Best of luck with the sale!

 

^ Every car forum I have ever been on people like to get in their two cents on car values. It comes with the territory of posting a classified. You just need to hold your ground, which is what the OP is doing. Good for him and if it doesn't sell than it wasn't meant to be and just enjoy it.

 

Maybe Tom Cruise will want to buy it?

 

Fun car good luck with the sale, it will find a good home

I think those cars are poorly made and I would take the first offer. Good luck on the sale and don't hold my opinion as it worth anything.
