Nebee questions on a 2014 E350

I'm 59 and just retired. I live in So Cal, so the prices are a little higher here. I'm looking at buying my first Mercedes.

Is this a fair deal? Can I realistically expect to get 10 years our of a car like this? Anything to look out for?

2014 E350, 27,000 miles

PRISTINE! Steel grey with black interior. 360 Camera, Distronics, Navigation, 17" AMG Wheels, Folding Rear Seats, Premium 1 Package, Adaptive LED headlights, Sport Package, Keyless GO, Parking Assist, Driver Assistance Package. Ceramic window tint. No accidents, no dents, no dings. Garaged when not being driven. See attached Window Sticker picture. MSRP New $65,835. Factory bumper to bumper warranty remaining until April 2018. No scheduled maintenance due until April 2018. All Scheduled Maintenance has been performed by Mercedes Dealer. CA Registration paid through March 2018

The guy wants $32,000 or best offer.

Yes, for that year, options and mileage, that is a very fair price. Since that is an ask price try $30K or $31K and see how it goes. These are very solid cars and if properly maintained they will easily provide 10 years of service. Good luck!

Holy crap!! He wants $32k for that car??? I wouldn't pay more than $30k, IMO, if I were you. The car is missing Active Muilt countour driver seat, Pano roof, and Active Ventilated Seats...those are sweet options!

The remaining factory warranty is good and all, but $32k?...from a private seller?
Also I am assuming he just got service done last month, since next one due is 4/18? Also, what do you mean CA registration paid? Doesn't each owner pay their own taxes/registration/etc upon taking ownership of a vehicle? At least that's how it works in VA...

You can easily get 10 years out of a Mercedes; maintain it properly and spend the right amount of money doing so. Good luck!

The car has Distronic. Did you even read his post? He is asking a fair price on a $65,000 MSRP E350 with good options and low miles. If you like the color and options, negotiate and buy it.

I guess it was a good deal, because somebody else bought it

Fletcher Jones has the same exact car for $36,888. Everything costs more in southern California.

sorry. I tried to tell you it was a good deal. That car was very well priced and you'll never get one with those options and miles, plus no dings for $27,000.
