If Juicey cant go I work 3 blocks away from there and might be stopping by tomorrow to grab lunch with my shop foreman.

Let me know if you need it looked at. I am ultra picky with used cars and will give the straight scoop.

Its arguably THE worst used car on the market (highline variety) to move right now. Nobody wants it even at 30k back of book according to the wholesalers I deal with here in the OC. I got lucky and found a buyer for a price that was still way off my asking but I figured it was better to take my loss now than have a car I was unhappy with.

Checked out MB of Encino last eve 3/28/08:

1. 05 CL 65 15k mi $89K black on black SOLD
2. 06 CL 65 13k mi $99K black on black AVAILABLE

The 06 looks perfect and it has distronic.

Expect to see 06s on lots because they are comming off 24 and 39 mo leases are being turned in now for the 08s.

Wait until the 09s hits the streets, the market will really hit bottom for the 05/06 65s. I think this will be sometime in August.

The pre owned S and G classes are in demand due to the fact that brokers move these cars overseas from the US market and still beat the overseas pricing by a couple of thousand dollars.

That 06 I would have to have a tech take a good look at. It was a corporate lease and it changed hands twice already. It might have been a way to get around taxes or as a tax write off, or it might have been a company beater.

Either one of them is a dream car.

There is a 03 911 turbo on the display rack that looks gooooooooooood. But it is out of warantee and I believe there are no 3rd party extended warantees available for that little monster.

Another potential buy for some lucky guy.
