High-Mileage AMG 53
I知 debating leasing or buying. I知 leaning buying because MB痴 money factor is high.
Anyone with a lot of miles care to share their experiences thus far? I know forums tend to be a place to grind your proverbial axe, but for every bad story out there, I知 sure there are more people without issue, at least I hope there are lol.

Buy and get an extended warranty. I'd not lease in this market personally. When my 450 came last month I bought and haven't done that in 15 years. Leases are terrible right now.

You might compare a Single Pay lease. Although it was 2020 when our GLC arrived, we used a One-Pay instead of purchase. There were more favorable financial benefits than I had expected, having been anti-leasing forever. Plus I had more leverage during negotiations for the purchase itself.

Regarding miles, V167 has only been on the market for 3 calendar years, and 53 models are low volume. And it's a safe speculation that many 53 models are not driven to high mileages quickly.
On Cargurus the highest mileage 2020 GLE 350 has 83,000 miles and the highest mileage AMG 53 has only 39,000 miles.
Therefore it will be surprising to see anyone post in the near term with 50k+ miles on one of these.
