08' ML550
Forget BH Benz-Hi Dollar. Picked up my ML550 from FJ Mercedes in Newport from Ramin-a top salesperson there. Great deal! Unless you need the 3rd row seat get the 550-faster, easier to park, handling etc. Love it!

Dude, if they are tellin' you MSRP tell them to go fly a kite. You should be able to get invoice or very close, if not below! Oh, the ML 550 is way more fun than the GL 450, so don't go there unless you really need the 3rd row seat! I Love my ML!

Will advice it to my friend.

It sucks everyone around me is buying a car but me.

LOL I have been hunting for a s65 probably 07 for like 120-130 none haha.

I guess I am too cheap.

My best bet closest to s65 is the s600 huh with the twin turbo.

I might just go for that.

I think he will go for the ML550 hows the resale on it?

I heard it will have a facelift soon.

ML550 just came out-Go for it!
Everything gets a face lift every couple years now anyway...
People wait on the fence for new models and as soon as the get their new model, another facelift comes out! Never gonna get ahead playing that game.Thats the way it is-Don't wait!

Assuming you get an 08 for 5-7k off list...you can probably get the 09s for list so it depends on whether the minor facelift is worth paying the premium over an 08
