Lots are coming off lease, and you will have your choice of model and options. I've been watching the market closely as I've been thinking about buying a second one, and have noticed they are cheap enough now that they are selling quickly. Nice low mileage EQS cars are disappearing off dealer websites within days--at least the ones priced reasonably at $55,000-$70,000. I think people finally noticed that you can get an amazing car for new Honda like money.

'23 EQS 450 4matic
Exactly, bought mine a month ago, and well optioned and priced ones only stay on the lot a week. Every one I looked at is long gone, I see my local dealer in SoCal now has a higher mileage '23 CPO 450+ for 47 and a lower milage, higher spec one for 50.
Drive/look at a couple and decide what features are important to you, choose your price point and wait. I wanted the AMG line interior, and decided the 450 4matic was the right balance of performance v cost for me, which narrowed things down a lot.

The synthetic leather on Mbenz cars is a tricky. Some newer cars have great vegan leather, some don't. Am not sure what kind of leather is the base one for the EQS, so that's why I asked. It doesn't seem to be that premium in photos but I could be wrong.

Yeah but the question is, how does "leather" compare to "Nappa Leather". I feel that there is a difference. Honestly if is not not the Semianiline or Nappa, I'd rather have leatherette over basic leather. But I have to admit that I've never sat in an EQS with the basic leather to tell how good/bad is it.

That's my concern.... If it's real leather, in all cars I had I noticed that it must be at least Nappa and even that is marginal and semianiline is the best.. Base leather has always been a disappointment in a way that I'd rather have vegan/leatherate than base leather. but again just my own observation. Leatherate is great and I wish they never offered base leather and instead just offered leatherate which in many cases even better than Nappa....... Base leather is the worst of all options.

It's a personal preference thing. I'm fine with whatever base leather that came in our 580. However, I must say, MB Tex is amazing stuff. It may not have a place in an EQS, but the stuff is indestructible. Look at Junkyard Gems on Autoblog and check out MB's from the 1970's and 1980's...stuff does not wear.
