We got our 2006 RClass with 11,000 miles for $23,500. We went on Edmunds.com to find it. gl It's a great riding car with lots of room.

Thanks for your info. That is a great price! How much was it listed for?

My mistake it was $23,900 my husband just corrected me but still a good price. It was listed for that also from a dealer that just dealt with highend cars. The good thing is that our local Mercedes dealer did a thorough inspection and now it is still under warranty until June 2010.

nice, what was the asking price? and can you tell us about options it came with. I am in SEARCH mode for R 350 and unfortunatly there are ZERO in my area Columbus Ohio

The asking price was what we paid. We knew it was a good price for the 11,000 miles on it so never haggled with $$. It has the full glass roof, GPS, heated seats, electric rear door closer, Harmon stereo. The things it didn't have that I would have liked was that auto parking option and the dvd option. Did you try Edmunds? We actually went from Long Island to Boston to buy it.

wow that sure was a steal !! yes I tried edmunds and closest is 80 miles away but those 2 R 350 (2006) does not have full glass roof I will wait month and two to see if any local dealers put them on their lot.

It also has allwheel drive. When you do find one get the serial # and then call Mercedes USA. They were able to give us info on the car service record. They did tell us 2 recalls were never taken care of so we let the dealer know and he took care of it immediately. After we took ownership of it we called MUSA again to register our name to the vehicle. This way they contact us directly if any recalls.
