Feeler: Anyone looking for a 2006 R500 Sak's Edition?

Probably selling mine. She's got 60K on the clock and looking for $26,000.00

I ran the auction numbers on it, and these are fetching 22-24K, so I think 26K is reasonable for what stickered as a $70,000.00 truck.

It's not officially for sale as of this writing. Meaning, I don't have it listed anywhere yet. Currently, my SA at the dealership is interested and my tech who works on all my cars. But neither has committed. It's got the normal minor scratches/chips associated with a woman driven car. It's been a baby hauler for it's entire life and never been abused. Just put new brakes on all 4 corners, less than 500 miles ago.

Just putting it out there in case someone is looking. I'll post an official for sale ad in the near future.

R350
Almost bought one when we were looking for R-class in November 2008. There are tons of good things in Sak edition. Unfortunately, for some reason, Sak edition does not come with auto hatch standard. No matter if it's R350 or R500. It's a seperate option. Does yours have automatic hatch option?

The Sak's model is pretty well optioned. But no, it does not have the auto trunk closer. Hasn't really been an issue for us, as has the soft-touch closing.

In all fairness I would prefer a car without the auto hatch. It's a PITA waiting for the slow hatch to release, and deal with all the latch issues associated with that option. If I could give up one option on my '08 R 350 it would be the auto hatch, if I were shopping for a used R-Class I would skip the auto hatch at all cause.
