indeed... not very common either. most people on the road have some sort of suv or cute ute or crossover etc. not too many high performance wagons out there hauling family.

my major concerns are resale value, will there be demand for a wagon when i go to sell or am i going to sit on this for ages... along with oil consumption or any costly maintenance item out of warranty (despite having a friend at MB who is a master tech "star certified") and of course winter driving (although we do have an SUV i would not want to leave this car in the garage for six months out of the year).

I've never purchased a vehicle for its resale value. I bought them because I liked it and wanted it. I do buy used, though, just because I can't stand the initial depreciation. The last new car I bought for myself was a 2000 ML320. Nice car but lost half its value in the first two years.

I would think a vehicle that rare would be worth owning and how fun would it be to trounce on a Mustang or a ricer with a stock wagon?

if anyone out of state wants a quick lookie-loo, I can swing by. It's not too far from my office. OTOH, I won't be taking the wagon to meet him, it's filthy right now.

Thanks Ed, I really appreciate it. I too have been reaching out to him to purchase with no luck on phone or email. I hope he is ok.
