    I have a new 2021 Black Series, 64 miles.
    Car came in more than a year delay and life changed since, I have no need for it, no opportunity or place to drive it and enjoy it.
    It cost me significantly over MSRP of $340k so I need to sell it accordingly.
    Lien with MBUSA so it has to be paid first, car on consignment with my MB dealer who will handle the sale and gets his share from the sale price.
    For quick sale I would accept $480k (have already an offer lower within a Toyota compact price so I am not open to any lower offers).

    I love watching it in action as the F1 safety car this year. Stunning! Did you drive it all?

    GLWS.

    about 40 miles on public roads, car is very low and speed bumps are killing it.
    GT2RS is much more practical in regular use, besides, at 6'4" it is impossible for me to get behind the wheel comfortably, either too upright or not enough legroom.
    If you are over 6'3", do not buy this car.

    Great price. Not surprised it didn’t last. Good to know about the height limitations - I’m 6’5” and sort of kept the GT in my outside candidates. At least I assume the non-black series it’s the same issue?

    Never driven the regular GT and that was my mistake.
    I just assumed German engineers would be more accommodating for tall guys, since there are so many of them in that country.
    I am much more comfortable in a Pista or Mclaren.

    Thank you. I've driven plenty of Audi's, BMW's and Merc's and have never had an issue. I don't even have the seat all the way back on my S3 most of the time. Would never have expected.

    Congrats on the sale. Never would have imagined a height problem for driver.

    You have a point, the actual height may have less impact then the ratio of legs length vs torso.
