Am I Missing Something Here?

So I recently came across this ad for a 2009 CL550 4Matic with 27K miles with P3 and every other option available

http://nyautogallery.com/index.php?p...ics&id=3211386

Above are the pics. Now the salesguy tells me with 3K down, I can finance the car for $629/month for 60 months. He's taking a few bucks off due to a 780 credit score. I mean, this is a fully loaded vehicle and I'm just kind of stunned at the price offering.

So am I missing something or is my questioning without merit and it makes sense.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks folks

used CL's are a hard sell as most people just don't know them or are afraid of the maintenance. Seems like a great car, if it was sold in 09 and those miles, you should still have factory warranty left and the option to buy an extended warranty. Little down, little per month, go for it, unless you want a lot of power,then go for the CL600, nothing like it. but more like $1000/month with $10K down.
But only buy it if you plan on hanging on to it, they have not been moving well, as I had my pick of them when I bought mine.

Is it because they are not good cars in the long-run? I definitely plan on keeping it for the next couple of years unless wifey beats the hell out of it then we'll see...

Mainteance wise my 07 has been great. The only thing out side the regular service I have repaired has been one of the dynamic seat bags. If it's nothing wrong with the car I would say go far it. My payments are more like 1200.00 with great credit so 629.00 is excellent.

I've only had my 08 a short while, but no problems and it is the best car hands down I have ever owned and plan on keeping it til it disintegrates.
I've had 4 MB SL's, an E and an S sedan and I keep coming back, so I think they are great cars, all cars and makes have their issues, but none have the engineering thought in them like an MB.

Drive it with style.

Thanks guys for instilling confidence in this purchase. Too bad the salesman is refusing a similar gratitude. He keeps delaying in sending me a CarFax. This, on the other hand, is slowly fading my hopes of getting this kind of car.

Mind you, this dealership is from my home, about 80 miles and so I would hate to make such a trip to end up coming back empty-handed because of a cunning salesman.

Will keep you all posted.
