Buy LeBron James’s Overpriced Mercedes-Benz S550

Lebron James Mercedes-Benz S550

Have you ever wanted to feel like a star? Have you ever wanted to roll around in the kind of ride that only the most well-known names would choose? Perhaps you even have the desire to own a car that has been chased by paparazzi, thanks to the famous owner behind the wheel? If that sounds like you, I have a car for sale with your name on it: a 2015 Mercedes-Benz S550, and it was owned by NBA star LeBron James.

James has had one of the largest and most storied careers of any NBA player this generation. After a harsh departure from Cleveland for greener pastures in Miami, “The King” won two championship rings. With that accomplished, he headed back to Cleveland, and this year it looked as if the prodigal son would finally grant the Cavaliers their first ever championship win. Alas, that didn’t happen.

Most everyone in sports is superstitious, and after such an upsetting loss, folks in Cleveland, especially LeBron, are probably trying to figure out how to improve their luck for next year. When LeBron went back to Cleveland, he bought himself a nice new 2015 Mercedes-Benz S550 4MATIC. Now that exact car is up for sale. I wonder if he thinks it’s cursed. I have seen elite athletes do weirder things.

So if you want a good deal on a potentially “bad luck” Mercedes that was owned by a huge basketball star, you can make it happen today for the low, low price of just $147,135. That is only thousands more than you could buy your own identically specced S550 for yourself!

On second thought, who the hell would want to pay even more money for a car that some basketball star is trying to pawn off just a few months after he bought the damned thing to start with?
