Re: [MBZ] Mecum Auction BP
Unless otherwise specified, these vehicles all have a reserve price. I've seen really clean early 2000s SLs sell for under $10 K with under 100k miles. The Mecum bidding universe is heavily tilted toward American cars, which increases your odds of picking up a Benz Bargain.
