Here is an example of what a near perfect “For Sale” ad should look like. If you put in the time now, you won't need to waste time later with multiple questions from tire kickers (that’s a fact from years of experience). This format cuts down on 90% of the questions that are asked on a frequent basis. Ads written this way, typically are sold to the first serious person that calls, even if it takes some time. Patience is key.
Hey guys! Up for sale is my ultra rare Mercedes-Benz AMG GTR Pro.
There were a total 150 of these made for US market and only two in Jupiter Red (from my knowledge, I know the previous owner of the other one) This is also one of the highest optioned Pro available in the market, all options listed below. I am a very anal, picky guy with a sharp eye when it comes to my cars so I will try my best to be 100% upfront and transparent about everything and every imperfection on this car.
Reason for selling: I go through several cars and only keep them for a few months. I need to make room and it’s time to sell her and pick up another toy that’s on my list.
Location: Houston, TX 77083
Mileage: 8,300 (will go up slightly)
VIN: (Please inquire)
History:
I am the second owner of the cars, both of us babied the car and treated her very nicely. Always garaged. Never been in any accidents or needed any repaint. Previous owner upgraded to the new black series before selling her to me. Clean and Clear Carfax.
Exterior: (9.5/10) -
Way better shape than 99% of the exotics out there with similar miles. The ENTIRE car is wrapped in-clear bra for maximum protection, although there are no major rock chips, there are a few imperfections in the clear bra, hard to notice to take pics of, one slight scuff that I'll ask the shop to see if the can fix it with heat. After purchasing, I’ve spent well over $8,000 in aesthetic changes. Changed the color scheme of the car to Red and Black only. Everything was done extremely professionally thru well known and trusted shops in Houston, hence the $8k+ bill. I also had it done in way so that next owner can easily reverse it back to original with minimal hassle. Originally the car was red with gray stripes and wheels.
Changes Made:
- Wheels properly stripped and powder coated to gloss black ($1000)
- All chrome (Grill, Emblems, Door Handles) changed to satin black
- Original Gray stripes changed changed to satin black
- Headlights, taillights, front emblem and radar sensor have a vinyl tint
- APR Spoiler Added - Red Matching Vinyl added - $2500+
(I have the original spoiler as well that will come with the car - One hour easy install)
- Custom, perfectly CNC machined, black wheel spacers added for better fitment ($500+)
- Fender Vents Painted Satin Black, original ones looked like cheap plastic
Exterior Cons: Barely noticeable imperfections on clear bra. Have to catch them in a certain lighting. Windshield does have microchips (normal for car with this many miles) Only visible when the sun is right in front of you)
Interior: (9.5/10) - Black Nappa/DINAMICA Exclusive with yellow stitching
- Almost Flawless. Only has a few scuff marks in the door sill area where you might rub your shoe getting in and out. Has every option that was offered.
Wheels/Tires/Brakes: (10/10)
- Wheels are perfect since they were recently powder coated black
- Tires are questionable, shops told me not to worry about them since they do not have too much tread to begin with and they're still good for a while but I can negotiate the price of new tires in the deal.
- Carbon Ceramic brakes are perfect. The car stops on a dime.
Mechanical: (10/10) - No modification whatsoever.
- Engine - Flawless, 4.0 V8 Twin Turbo - 577HP/516TQ
- Transmission - Flawless, 7 Speed Auto. Shifts faster than you can imagine
- Suspension - Flawless, all factory, several settings from comfort to track

Asking Price: $249,990 obo - Low ball offers will be politely declined and I’m in no rush to sell. If it doesn’t sell for a while, I’ll relist with a new price based on current market condition.
I will be getting a PPI done thru the local Mercedes dealership soon. Original pics of the car in stock form also available upon request. Once we negotiate the price, you will be purchasing the car thru a well established, high end dealership, at no additional cost to you (except your taxes and registration). Reason for that is so I can use the tax credit from this sale towards another exotic purchase. Benefits to you: Easy and hassle free paperwork, inspection and financing if needed (must have great credit) Buyer responsible for shipping, I can assist on my end and connect you with a few solid lead for shipping.
