If you aren't familiar with this style Mercedes SUV, it drives more like a truck than a modern day SUV, meaning it rides rougher overall like a truck of this year. Vehicle has a ton of power and engine likes premium gas only. It is far from perfect condition both inside and out. Paint peel on top of rear bumper, the OEM AMG fender flares are rough looking paint wise, typical rock chips etc on front bumper, dings here and there, inside leather has wear, etc, etc. The A/C just stopped working the last time I drove it, I have no idea what the issue is considering I just spent all that money having it fixed. Last time (and first time) I ran it through an automatic car wash the moonroof leaked. The rear door lock actuators and rear hatch lock actuator are all messed up and have to be manually locked (common issue with Mercedes, you can lock the vehicle using remote for vehicle). Driver side power seat does not work but the position it's in is overall comfortable (I'm 5'10" and around 230lbs). Brakes squeak a bit when backing up and coming to a complete stop at very low speed (not sure why since front brakes were replaced and rear brakes were inspected when it was at garage, could just be from vehicle sitting and not driven much). Side plastic on front driver seat is cracked into two pieces. Has navigation but will not read navigation disc. Has a slight jerk on take off, garage said its AWD system matched with the added AMG horsepower. I think that is all that's "wrong" with vehicle. Runs and drives just fine the way it is, could use a little TLC to the problems listed. I have around $10,700 into this vehicle with receipts for all. Book value isn't totally relevant as this is a special interest, rare, limited production vehicle. $8,000 obo. No trades, No dreamers, No joyrides. Cash or cashier's check only. I can send more pictures per request. Thank you
