I believe it stayed on their lot for a little over a year. I think the final selling price was around $86k By the way, this was the previsous generation S-Class (2006 model) not the new 2007+ body style, but hey.... that was still a very good deal

Well you know is always a "white elefant" out there.That’s all fine and dandy but, sorry no used cars stays in a lot for 12 months that puppy would be wholesaled long before that. And for a Benz to be on a lot for 12 months does not make you a little suspicious?

Here is another one for somebody. Only 800 miles. $49,000.
I usually buy new, but thats about $13,000 off what I would get from a dealer with their discount. About $18,000 below sticker for the used one. I'm thinking the used car market is the way to go here.

if you bought $200k of Apple Computer stock 3 months ago for $180/share, you would have lost the same amount of money as the S65 - but without enjoying it for the past 12 months. just a little perspective to make the S65 people feel better.
