It's a gorgeous car.  It's a little expensive.  I built one up on the MB website, and for a Maybach with the Executive Rear Seat package (which this has), you're at $300k.  So, 36% depreciation after 6 years... I was under the impression these uber-sedans depreciated quicker than that.


MY question is, though, what is it doing at a Chrysler dealership?  Doesn't seem like the kinda of car a Chrysler dealership would have picked up at auction, so perhaps it was traded in.  But on what?  Who goes from an executive Maybach to something Chrysler? 

I guess perhaps the Hornet PHEV is in a similar price bracket....  :rofl2:

Maybe it belongs to the owner of the dealership.

A Maybach for sale at a Chrysler dealership?

Not giving that away. $190,000 is a lot for an orphan where you may have to source parts out of Latvia

At a dealer in freaking Renfrew too?   That's bro-dozer country

It's downtown Calgary, next door to a Cadillac and an M-B dealers.

Oh, ok, not Renfrew Ontario. :P

Is it just me or does this not sound like a decent deal in this market?

$25k seems like a fairly strong bid.

Tooscoops was selling Lambos, Ferarris and such out of his Chrysler dealership. Was maybe more of a Covid thing when there wasn’t enough normal used car inventory.

Not bad for a brand new V8 RWD car. I just checked the build and price and adding the black top package, cold weather package, Alpine stereo, and nav comes to the same $53,030 they have it listed for.

That's what I'm saying, isn't that a pretty decent value, RWD, V8, manual, true last of the generation muscle car, decently optioned, and all for around $53k.  Seems like a solid deal in todays market.

Hopefully, that means the engine has been removed.

That is cool. Shame it is an automatic. Prices always seem to go bananas on Regal otherwise I might actually pop a bid in.
