Cool Car Looking For New Home – 2003 Mercedes-Benz C240 4Matic

Hey Cool Car Fans,

Want to get a great vehicle at a great price!  I have a dealership that I work with looking to sell a 2003 C240 4matic that they have in their inventory.  I had a buyer for it and the young girl’s Dad decided that he didn’t want his daughter in a Mercedes after talking with their mechanic friends who don’t work on Mercedes.  Of course, that should tell you something right there.

Last year, I spent about $75,000 fixing vehicles and Mercedes are some of the most reliable and safest cars on the road.  A new key for this ride was $150, compared to $300 for a Mazda that I had to get a key for recently, so the perception isn’t complete reality.

The fact is that the German’s & European’s make some, if not the best, production cars in the world, Mercede-Benz, BMW, Audi are fantastic performance and luxury vehicles.  The Japanese are constantly chasing the Europeans and not the other way around.  As far as safety, there is no comparison.  If you’re playing bumper cars ever on I70 in the Winter, you’re not going to be thinking about the cost of maintenance, but whether or not you’re going to walk away alive.

This ride is ready to go!  I took it in for a safety inspection and it needs nothing. I’m putting details of it here at CoolCarGuy.com for people to find out about it, so contact me if you are interested in this vehicle.

It has a new set of tires and is in fantastic condition.

I will get you a deal on this vehicle and save you about $1,000 off of the already discounted price, if you mention this article!

The used car market is going great, so don’t believe the headlines that the auto industry is hurting. New car sales are in the tank, but used car sales are strong in Denver and abroad.

People still have to drive, cars break down and have to be replaced and more people are buying used vehicles right now, but finding them can be a challenge.

Check out NADA for details on this 2003 C class 4Matic.

08MatrixHey Cool Car Fans,

I just posted last week’s Cool Car Guy Show here at CoolCarGuy.com for our visitors to check out.

Click Here To Listen Now!

We’re going to be creating the show on different days of the week at unique locations, like LODO’s, out in front of a Starbucks, so you’re going to want to follow The Cool Car Guy on Twitter @coolcarguy or both Hoss and I on Facebook to find out where we’ll be on any given day because we are very busy and extremely impulsive people, at least I am. You never know where we might show up and at what time because our schedules are nuts!

I have to deliver two vehicles tomorrow, a Toyota RAV4 and a 2008 Toyota Matrix tomorrow.  I’m also looking for an Audi Q7, a Toyota Tundra and a few other vehicles.

All in a day’s work for The Cool Car Guy.

I also still need to put up details on a 2003 Mercedes Benz C240 4Matic that is ready to go for a couple grand back of retail book!

At any rate, I will be back with a new podcast for The Cool Car Guy Show with Hoss soon.

If you’re thinking of calling me for a vehicle, don’t freak out about how busy I am because I’m like this all the time and that’s why people call me. If I didn’t know what I was doing it would be different, but I do this everyday, working with vehicles in every make, model and price range. I also love what I do.

The Cool Car Guy Show – May 5th, 2009

AcuraRDXHey Cool Car Fans,

Hoss and I didn’t make it over to LODO’s today to create The Cool Car Guy Show podcast and I was so busy yesterday and today I didn’t get a chance to put up yesterday’s show until now.

I had to make a trip to the Denver Auto Auction today and bid on a Subaru for a client and I ended up getting a smokin’ deal on a 2008 Ford Escape XLT for them instead. I’ll be delivering it tomorrow afternoon and they are stoked!

09 RAV4I also had to track down a Toyota RAV 4 for another client, check into an Infiniti M35x for another client and try to get an Audi A4 for another client that I pushed to tomorrow. This is in addition to locate a number of other vehicles, including a Saturn VUE, a Jeep Wrangler, a Nissan Altima, meeting a client earlier today on another Nissan Altima, locating a Subaru Impreza and at the end of the day a $130,000 – $180,000 vehicle for a great client of mine who wants me to unload his trade for him as well.

All in a day’s work for The Cool Car Guy Recon 2022: The Mezzo Incident buy and I have other vehicles I need to find besides these, but needless to say I couldn’t find time today for The Cool Car Guy Show podcast. I also got a call this evening about an Acura RDX with about 18,000 miles from a leasing company that needs to unload it this week. I need to get details on it tomorrow morning, so that I can post it up here, unless I have a buyer by then. I’m just throwing some photos up of the Acura RDX, so people can see what that vehicle looks like.

I also still need to put up details on a 2003 Mercedes Benz C240 4Matic that is ready to go for a couple grand back of retail book!

At any rate, I will be back with a new podcast for The Cool Car Guy Show with Hoss tomorrow.

Cool Car Looking For A New Home – 2002 PT Cruiser Limited Edition

2002 PT CruiserHey Cool Car Fans,

I got some flack from Dave Hopwood for calling some of the cars I put up here “cool”, but a cool car is whatever is cool to you.  After all, you’re the one driving it and Dave drives a Ford Explorer with 208,000 miles, so we can’t exactly ask his opinion on what’s cool.

SOLD! buy Threat of Exposure

I had a client contact me last week, she found me through one of the many sources that know about me online, such as Goblin Network, Twitter, Facebook, etc.  She asked me to help a retired gentleman sell his 2002 PT Cruiser Limited Edition The Goods: Live Hard, Sell Hard video that he hardly drove with just 29,800 miles on it. He can’t drive anymore because of his health, so I am helping him sell his vehicle.  I took it in for a safety inspection and it needs some work that will be done before taking delivery. I’m putting details of it here at CoolCarGuy.com for people to find out about it, so contact me if you are interested in this vehicle.

This vehicle will have a new set of brakes and tires, along with any other work that it needs from having a safety inspection done.  When this vehicle is delivered it will need nothing!  It has leather, is an automatic, has a sunroof, heated seats, stone white with gray interior, plus much more.

2002PTCruiser2I can get you financed with 40 credit unions and a number of banks to choose from through JFR & Associates. If you are interested and want to see it, call me at 720-771-6269 and I’ll get in touch with my client to show it to you.

Ref: Stock number 2002PT

I’m listing it at $7,495 for a quick sale and these are hard to find. If you check AutoTrader, this is the best priced one around, there are only 12 of them available, with the lowest miles and it will without a doubt be in the best condition.

The used car market is going great, so don’t believe the headlines that the auto industry is hurting. New car sales are in the tank, but used car sales are strong in Denver and abroad.

People still have to drive, cars break down and have to be replaced and more people are buying used vehicles right now, but finding them can be a challenge.

Check out NADA for details on this 2002 PT Cruiser, which at the time of this posting is $8,575 for clean retail.

Colorado Hybrid Tax Credits

Hey Cool Car Fans,

2009 Camry HybridEarlier today, I got an email from one of my sources at a Denver Toyota dealership about the new tax credits on hybrid vehicles.

He said, “Hey John, check out the Colorado Hybrid Tax Credits on Toyota vehicles.  If you know anyone in the market this is a good size rebate courtesy of the grand State of Colorado!  Leased Hybrids are eligible too based on Cap and Residual values.  Call me if you need one for your clients.  See you soon…”

The breakdown is as follows according to his data.  I’ll have to confirm this with the State of Colorado, but it’s pretty impressive for some of Toyota’s more popular Hybrids.  I’m not sure what the availability of these vehicles is, but with gasoline creeping up over $2 a gallon again, since the Stock Market has been picking up again, we’re probably going to see more demand for hybrids in the coming months.

  • 2009 Camry Hybrid – Tax Credit Available = $2,043
  • 2009 Highlander Hybrid – Tax Credit Available = $4,688
  • 2009 Prius Hybrid – Tax Credit Available = $3,110

I’m sure there are some incentives on some other brands.  I’ll report on those as I get additional data, but in the meantime, if you’ve been thinking about a hybrid, the State of Colorado wants to assist you in getting one in your driveway.  Toyota has been leading the way with their hybrid technology and I have a number of clients with these vehicles that love them.

Let me know if you are interested in taking one out for a test drive.
