http://www.kbb.com/KBB/UsedCars/Pric...nditions=These things are never really accurate but it seems high high 30s-low 40s???Best bet would be checking on autotrader: http://www.autotrader.com/fyc/search..._price=dealers are selling for low 40s...so from private sale, should be in high 30s

thanks for the reply. was navigation and sirius radio capable a stock item with the ml500 in 06? are the package options offered in 2008 basically the same as they were in 2006? thanks again.

Navigation wasn't standard, not sure about sirius.

The package's are similar to ones available right now but not the same. One difference is that the Premium 2 pkg now includes bi-xenons which was previously an acessory option...can't find the official MBUSA option list but here's one from KBB for a 2007 ML500, which is packaged the same way as 06's

'13 ML350 Bluetec for work, E550 for pleasure, & ML350 for my wife
I've got an 05 ML550 "Special Edition" that came with the premium sound system, Nav, and CD changer. IIRC, sirius was not included. This was a pretty fully loaded vehicle, including: Leather, Memory, Moonroof, power folding mirrors, fancy big wheels, etc. I think most of the stuff was part of the S.E. package. This is my wife's car, so I'm not sure what other goodies were part of the package.

BTW, I'm planning to trade it in before year end on a ML550, if anyone in MD might be interested in a good deal. 44,000 miles, Silver over Gray Leather.

stoneseller, where do you sell stone and what kind is it. i am building a new home and just bought a bunch of veneer stone.
anyhow, you have a 163 ml500?

First off the guys that answered with comparisons to anything earlier than an 06 should be ignored as 05's and below are W163's, yesterdays news, no longer a current model and totally different values and packaging.
To answer your direct questions, As I recall from when I ordered my 06 ML500 the packages were differnt from what they currently offer. Believe there was only one "premium " package. The sat radio and the nav were both options and I recall that the nav was a part of the premium package. Mine has everything except parktronic, sat radio and Ipod, and had an MSRP of 62000 with the MB phone. By the way I was just offered 51500 on a trade for a new S Class that was discounted by 5% before the trade value. Don't think I will get rid of it yet, Perhaps in the fall of next year.

Sorry, no deal at this time. I am not the kind of guy who will jump just because the price is right. It has to be the the correct time in my mind to do so. The deal is not my motivating factor and if it is not a similar deal when I am ready so be it I will just pay more. Money is the least of my problems.
