Advice on buying W216 CL63
Hi everyone,
I'm toying with the idea of finally trading in my immaculate 2012 E550 convertible and buying what I couldn't afford back in 2012 which is the CL63. Any idea on what I should look out for? Are the ABC problems solved on the W216? Anything else in particular? I figured I'd look for a low mileage to have as few issues as possible. I'm not looking to tune it or anything like that, 500+ HP is more than enough when commuting in LA traffic so stock is fine
Would appreciate any advice!
Thx

Coming from the E550 it's more than I currently have and very likely more than I need. I'm also looking for a nicer ride and quite frankly, just for a change. I'm just vary of the possible repair costs though as I've read so many stories about the ABC suspension.
