2007 E550 4MATIC w/ P2 and panoramic
Looking for 07/08 E550 off lease

Hello, I recently joined MBWorld to help in my (future) ownership of an E550 and I have already learned a lot about what to look for! I am actively looking for an E550 4MATIC Sport with the P2 package and folding rear seat option.

The main problem I'm having is I really don't care for the popular combination of the black wood with black interior on the 07's. So that leaves me looking for a 2007 the cashmere interior or a 2008 with the brown walnut wood option. If seems the cashmere interior is pretty rare and the 2008 are still not coming off lease.

Does anyone know about when 2008 models will start showing up used? Would you expect MB to still have a similar financing offer on the CPO cars (1.9%)?

Thanks a lot for your ideas,
Paul

Excellent choice, a great car but I think you'll find it's difficult to locate the combo you desire. If you do expect to pay a premium price. Good luck!

That's a nice 550 you have for sale. Unfortunately its a little too new to be in my price range. Good luck with the sale!

You should start seeing them come off-lease any time now. I traded by 03' E500 a few weeks ago for a recently off lease 08' E350. The 550s should start appearing soon.

2007 E550 4matic
I have an 07, low miles, silver/black e550 sport, 4matic, premium 2 package, bluetooth, folding rear seat you want, but it's the black interior........myself I love the interior, but I am abit biased I guess, but it's because of the sport it replaces the wood with black maple to show off the silver around gear shift and white trimmed gauges etc..I think I am up to almost 28k miles on it now but underneath you can still read all the factory stickers they put on it....it's been overly spoiled

2007 E550 4MATIC w/ P2 and panoramic
I just took delivery of my new car this week. I found a 2007 E550 4MATIC Sport P2 with the fold down rear seat and panoramic roof, black with cashmere interior. It has 49,800 miles and sold for $29,500. The miles were a little higher than I wanted, but at that price I could easily afford to add a warranty to add 4 years and 50K additional miles.
