Need help and advise to buy this ’07 E550
Hi All,
I’m in the market for a ’07 E350 but saw an ad from MB dealership for ’07 E550 CPO at 36K miles with P2, SP, Wood/Leather Steering Wheel and Panorama Sunroof . Asking price is $36K.
Now here is abnormal part:
The car delivery date is 8/14/06 on EPC database but on the CarFax Report:
Date: Mileage: Source: Comments:
03/09/2007 165 California Motor Vehicle Dept. Title issued or updated First owner reported Registered as personal vehicle Loan or lien reported.
That mean the car been sitting at dealership around 6 months and 160 miles as test drive.
What do you think? Should I go for it and how much should I offer?
TIA
Tony

Not a big deal. 160 miles is nothing .. at least it got started once in a while.
The E500/550's sit on dealers lot's much longer than the base models. Mine was on the dealer lot for 8 months ...

This is the deal I got: 32K +tax and tag (35K OTD)
All new tires, brake pads and engine oil, brake fluid changed as part of CPO plus warranty until 3/2012.
Will post pictures once the weather cooperated, right now I’m tried to study the service sequences and requirements.

That is an insane deal. Wow. Congrats. I love my car and it was exactly what I wanted, but if I were to do it again, and at the current car prices, I would have Searched for a CPO '07 E550 with an AMG Package and a color I like, and under 40K Miles (which is probably almost impossible to find, my '06 w/ AMG Package was way hard enough).
