Still making 507

I am in the market for a new 507 sedan, are they still making them?

The ones I have seen available do not have the options I want, so if they are still making them I would hope they could build one the way I need it.


Are AMG models excluded from the Mercedes experience where you pickup your car in Germany and get 7% off?

Thanks,
J

They are not making any W204 sedans any more. Production of the 507 sedan ended last fall. There will be a 2015 507 Edition C63 coupe, which you can order. The coupe is on a different lifecycle than the sedan. If you want a newly produced C63 sedan, you must wait for the W205.

European delivery includes some AMG models. You'd have to check the web site as the mix changes. Obviously, it won't include C63 sedans right now but might include coupes.

507 sedan is an instant collector's car. Buy it, drive it a little, and garage it. That baby will go down as one of the greatest production cars ever.

It's a brand new legend and I wish I had the coin to store one. 20 years from now it's going to be worth a ton of cash with low miles. Supras still going for crazy cash and it's not even close to the same league.

Do all 507 sedan front seats come with a fixed headrest? I noticed alot of the new pictures have a new adjustable headrest, or is the sedan fixed and the coupe adjustable?

I like the fixed headrest/2 piece seat better than the 3 piece/adjustable one

You really think so? I mean it's great for sure and since they only made them for about 3 months I could see them being a rare bird for sure - but a collector car?

^ There was just a huge thread on the future of the C63.

Long story short, no. The only C63 that has the real potential to be considered a collector item is the black series.

However, I would also like to put in a little disclaimer that you'll never really know until we are 25-30 years down the road.

Again, the best shot is the C63 black series. A 507 Sedan would probably come next, then 507 coupe, and on down. The one thing I can say is a base C63 pretty much has no shot so drive the hell out of it.

The 507 sedan will retain it's value sure, but one of the "greatest production cars ever" and a "instant collector" car? No.

The dealership I am working with is trying to tell me there are only 3 507 sedans left in America.... I find that too hard to believe.
Only used sedans on the market that i know of

I have my opinion. I'm sticking with it. Only in the spectrum of time.....

Look at the Roadrunner, 60s Camaros, 60s Porsches. I'm not talking F40 Collector's Car, but more of a car that hits BJ in 20 years and fetches twice as much as it was new.

^ All special edition / advanced models.

Again, don't mean to rain on your parade because there is really no way to tell. But I wouldn't hang onto the C63 expecting returns down the line.

The 507 sedan is definately a rare/special car, but 4 doors are rarely coveted/collected. So drive em while you got em.
