New Arrivals! Porsche 911 and Bronco Raptor traded for a 2025 Mercedes G550

[@craig_s]

3:12 "I keep telling people, I'll tell you how to get one. Nobody ever listens." (referring to a new G63 AMG) To summarize this example of "how to get one": - Trade in 2 cars worth $229,600 retail for "fair market value" - Purchase a G550 worth ~$155k - Trade in the G550 for "fair market value" - Get the right to order a 2026 G63 AMG at MSRP Currently listed on Mercedes-Benz North Olmsted '21 Porsche 911 Cab (WP0CD2A96MS263579): $222.8k '23 Ford Bronco Raptor (1FMEE5JR2PLB77929): $76.8k

"easy, why doesn't everyone just do that" said the salesman on commission.

[@BenzsandBowTies]

You don’t have to trade anything in to us to start, but we do prioritize clients that have bought G-Classes from us who then trade them back to us for their G63 at MSRP. If and when we ever run out of clients that fit that criteria for available allocations, we’ll start going down the list to everyone else. I don’t anticipate we’ll get to that part of the list anytime soon.

@@BenzsandBowTiesWell when you put it like that…

[@craig_s]

​@@BenzsandBowTies Got it. So, there are two scenarios for 'I'll tell you how to get one' regarding a G63 AMG: 1. Trade in vehicles worth six figures to purchase a G550, under the condition that a G63 allocation might become available for you later. Then, trade in that G550 for your G63 at MSRP. 2. Purchase a G550, on the condition that a G63 allocation might be offered to you if you trade in that same G550 to the dealership for your G63 at MSRP.

Keep making videos like these Doug. Great and informative content

[@BenzsandBowTies]

Thank you for the kind words! More to come!

I don’t know why I love watching car, watch, and house dealers at work. They all sound the same the market calls for when they created the market

[@BenzsandBowTies]

Consumers create a market not the manufacturers / dealers (despite wishing or believing they can)

[@kyolml]

are you saying the dude trade in both the 21 Turbo S cab and raptor for the G550 direct trade? That seems a rip off I would assume both together the trade in value should be eaisily more than $155k. Unless he is getting cash back or later for the G63 or something you didn't bother mention.

[@BenzsandBowTies]

Yes, the value of his two trades was more than the G550 so he’s getting substantial cash back as well.

Dealer “relationships” are no bigger of a racket than the Rolex AD “list” joke. Buy a bunch of shit we can’t move, then once we’ve milked you long enough we will give a taste of something to keep you around. The illusion that you have to be loyal to sales people who are trying to take your shirt is comical.

[@BenzsandBowTies]

It’s either a system like this or we could charge market value for them (as could Rolex) which in the case of a G63 is in the neighborhood of $50,000 over MSRP. Would that be your preference?

[@charlottetrades3367]

@@BenzsandBowTies- neither. 🌴

[@jml9550]

It is a free market. Whoever is willing and able to pay for an item at market value wins. Simple.

[@SteveCross007]

@@dialupdavid lol blame the time piece flippers for the Rolex as for the G 63 dealers they came down a lot for the over sticker prices. Some people go the route his client did. I get your frustration. Lemonade out of lemons sir.

[@myanaloglife9450]

Nope, your dealer knows you, he will move the world for you..think about it, repeat customer is when you make money, more sales to one person, more money..single sales to individual are hit or miss..

[@bourbontraveler]

Sounds like he’s a car guy that doesn’t truly appreciate cars. He doesn’t seem to use his cars, at least he doesn’t drive them much He just spends a lot of money on them. How much for the turbo?

[@BenzsandBowTies]

Turbo should be priced online by tomorrow if not already.

[@bourbontraveler]

@ thanks

[@myanaloglife9450]

To most car dealers a car is just inventory, nothing to get excited about

[@paulo7200]

I'm guessing BowTie's daily driver is a paid-off Rav4.

@@BenzsandBowTies I completely respect you though. It's very rare to find anyone with a high IQ and a disciplined thought process in the auto sales world.

[@SteveCross007]

I totally understand what you saying with relationships with dealers. People must understand it helps for obtaining highly sought after models and it also helps to decrease the over sticker price .

[@BenzsandBowTies]

This is exactly what we are trying to avoid. We can go this route and have meaningful relationships with clients with mutual benefit (to them and the dealership) or we could charge market value. The first option is much better in our eyes.

[@robertgregory1927]

Great insight on relationship building…TY.

Thanks for watching!

Why don’t you guy’s hold your phone sideways to film your videos? It’s really distracting and takes away from your message. Great content!

[@BenzsandBowTies]

Working on that! KZbin is the only platform that likes landscape shots so unless we have a rig with 2 cameras at once it’s often easier to shoot this way for Insta, FB, and TikTok

[@charlottetrades3367]

Looks like BowTie has found himself another victim for MB rapid depreciation. Bend over, Amigo. 🌴

[@jml9550]

Good point. But if he is she is willing and able to take the financial hit, so be it. Not everyone are poor.

[@BenzsandBowTies]

How familiar are you with the market for G-Wagons?

[@scottmalone1106]

If the customer bought the Bronco Raptor, he’s already familiar with depreciation

Not a fan of broncos and g wagons. The 911 however 🤩

Nothing like a 911!

I’ll be honest, I’ve never understood what people see in the G wagon. Go get a Range Rover, folks!

We hear that a lot. We also take in a LOT of Rovers on trade!

Terrible mistake

How so?

[@6ftfox]

Why would you pay MSRP only in fool would pay MSRP you can get them anywhere in the country friend voice plus a brand they’re not as popular as you think anymore. Maybe in your neck of the woods, but please.

[@myanaloglife9450]

Nope..supply and demand car is in high demand you pay more, just math and market

[@BenzsandBowTies]

I think you may be referring to the overall car market now vs COVID, but what you are saying doesn’t apply to G-Class
