MDX VS GL450

Hi,


Appreciate your suggestions/recommendations:

1. 2012 used GL450 with 11K milage quoted price is $ 59k with the below features.

PARKTRONIC, Blind Spot Assist, Illumination Kit for Side Running Boards, Heated Premium Leather Steering Wheel,Trailer Hitch - 7,500 lbs. (Class IV), Brushed Aluminum Running Boards, Rear Seat Entertainment - Multi-Source / Dual Screen, Premium 1 Package - Includes: Hard-drive navigation, 4GB Music Register for storing MP3 files; SiriusXM Satellite Radio with SiriusXM Traffic (with 6-month trial); iPod/MP3 Media Interface, HD Radio receiver, Gracenote media database; Enhanced Voice Control for audio, telephone and navigation; 10-way power front seats with 3-position memory, including steering column and side mirror positions for driver; Power tilt/telescoping steering column; Power-folding side mirrors, auto-dimming driver-side and inside rear view mirrors, digital compass display in inside mirror; Power liftgate, 115-volt AC power outlet in cargo area; Rear view camera

Is it a good price?

1. Price appears to be in the ball park. Is it MB certified used? If not, I would hold out for one that is certified.

2. Didn't even think the MDX is the same league as the GL450.

Hi BlownV8,

It is not certified by the dealer, it is listed as a manufacturer vehicle
sold at auction.

Thanks

One is a luxo heavy suv truck, the other is a car- based Honda trucklette. There are universes apart and should not be cross shopped..
