2005 E500 Estate Wagon
We just got my wife a 2005 E500 4MATIC with 30,000 miles (one owner)!!! Got an 05, because if I'm gonna buy a wagon....I want it to at least be fast..LOL, and I couldn't find any 06's with low miles (I also wanted a dark interior, because we have a newborn)!!!
Anyway, we got it from a MB dealership in CT for about $32,000.00 out the door (including MB warranty until 5/2012 or 100,000miles and )!!!We went through MB Financial, for a 0 down, 60 month buy @ 3.9% (could have gotten 2.9 for 36 months)!!! The sticker (which was in the glovebox) was $65,000.00 in 5/05!!!
Now...we run a small trucking company, and use our business amex for all fuel purchases..which in turn kicks our revolving credit sky high..which lowers our credit score...and caused us to be teir2, but even so....MB still approved us (once explained), and we were able to negotiate the lower interest rate!!!
My wife really likes it, and I think it's a great car also....and I don't see too many either!!!

Well since people are talking about pricing, what do you think I can get this for?

I stopped and looked at it today. It clean inside and out. Has a lot of options. Although I tired the keyless start and it said it didnt recognize the key. But it started with the same key. Could it have been that I had both FOB's in the car at the same time?? Im thinking of offering 23.5K and sticking to it. Times are tough. Its a small dealership. They gotta move cars. Think I got a shot?

Your link says it's a 2005.
If so, the car was made in calendar 2004, probably early in the 2005 run.
It's the center console that changed during the MY run, not the dash.
