Just wrapped up a clean flip on a 2008 Mercedes S550, and I want to break it down for the Crispy Clean fam.
π§Ό The car had good bones but needed that Crispy Clean touch:
- Deep detail: full interior + exterior (2-step correction & ceramic seal)
- Minor trim refresh + headlight restoration
- Replaced worn emblem and added clean floor mats
- Quick fix on a sagging headliner
π Bought it for $4,800
π§ Put in about $450 in parts + materials
π Sold it for $7,500
π Net profit: $2,250
The key here was keeping the factory look intact. No mods, no extra flash β just restoring the luxury and making it pop for the right buyer.
This is why we focus on older luxury vehicles like Mercedes, Lexus, Porsche, etc. They still have market appeal when presented the right way.
π¬ Drop a comment if you want the exact checklist I used on this flip.
Stay crispy. Stay clean. π§
