ok guys I got myself into another deal here it is! iNFO!

Here is the Deal S430 2003 Silver/Gray Xenon/6 CD changer/ Keyless starter/htd seats car has exactly 28,130k miles the car has been on their lot for a little over 3 months which is the only wierd part about it so far.. with 28k its still under factory warranty as you all know..

here is the ad on autotrader with the carfax on it http://www.autotrader.com/fyc/vdp.js...g=en&cardist=0

car only has about 7 more months of warranty on it.. the tires look new I did mention to them I want the rotors and brakes looked at as well.. NEED In-put and the price we set was $40,500.00 + stealership fee = 389 + tax and tags LET ME KNOW I might be going down there this week to drive it and make sure it's 100% what else should I test on the test drive? I know mess with the airmatic a bit to see if there is any sound coming from it anything else??

the car looks nice on the inside, but for 10K more you could a S350 w221 body style.

my local dealer I bought my ML500 from is selling them for 56K out the door.

I dont have 10k more to spend for it plus I havn't seen many S430s 2003 under 30k range for under 41,000.00 I know the auction but I think this could be something here.. 40,500.00 with 28k miles on it seems impressive to me.. what else should I check for when i am there???? Help on that!

Looks like some body hooked a parking space stop/bump. No big deal but negotiate it. R & R front non AMG bumper is about $1200...FYI...good luck.

There is no S350 W221 sold in the US anywhere...you must have meant the W220. And you are correct...if you can find a 2006 S350 W220 somewhere there was $15K trunk money plus a big discount available....
