Advice on what to look out for S500 Coupe 2015 please

Hi All!

I have got my eyes set on an immaculate 2015 C217 with AMG body kit with 35k miles, all service records from dealer are available, no accidents. Price is $65K.

Questions:

1. Is that reasonable mileage versus price?
2. Are there certain things I should be looking out for when I get it inspected?
3. Are these generally reliable cars? I have a 2016 W205 and it's been great.

Any other advice would be greatly appreciated!

Cheers,
Nate

I have, since new, a 17 S550 CAB and 19 S560 coupe. Both have been totally reliable with "0" problems.
I realize these are not the years you are concerned with but I offer these examples for information only.

1. I think the price/mileage is reasonable compared to other recent sales.
2. Be sure to have all of the suspension as well as the usual PPI items checked.
3. Mine has been reliable. I have a 2016 S550 coupe and have had no issues with it except for a cracked panorama roof that I say was stress cracks but MBZ said had to be hit by something, (My insurance covered it and MBZ paid my deductible.)
Best car that I've owned, and I've had many since 1960.

Thats great to hear! Thanks for the tips, I will ask my guys to check it all out as there might only be an aftermarket warranty. Seems like a really solid car!

Quick question, how much mileage does your car have now?
