Should Trade For A E63 AMG

Hello There
I currently am a proud owner of a W220 S600 and looking for something more sporty. At my nearby dealer they have a 07 E63 AMG 26995 with 70k miles and 8k trade for my 06 S600. What do you think about the deal and is there anything to look for in the E63

Thanks

How many miles on the S600?

crazy that a $98K E63 is selling for $27K but a $150K- S600 trade in is only $8K.

Thank stealers for quoting the owners out of ownership.
I was comparing W210 when they come to 10+ years mark.
When new, diesel option was the cheapest, while E55 cost like $12k or 30% more.
10 years later comparable diesel with 100k miles would sell way higher than E55 with the same mileage.

The 220 isn't a great chasis but the S600 is special but if you want sporty the E63 is great. Curious how many miles on the 600?

Nobody wants to or can typically afford proper maintenance on a $150k S600. I love them, but parts don't depreciate in value. You're still having to buy parts valued at some percentage of $150k.
