STAY AWAY!

If you are considering a nice S-Class Mercedes, that one should be far off your list...

MY2000 S430 with almost 100K miles? That to me sounds like a ticking bomb that is about to explode any second... BAM!

idk it seems like its in good condition!!! i guess you have to actually drive yourself and check it out as well... he has goodfeedback.. but i would never buy a car of ebay especially mercedes!! cuz if something goes on they mite claim there not responsible even if you have the extended warrenty or they mite say u ahve to spend $$$$ to ship the car to them to have it fixed!!! its risky but its a big decision!! good luck we wish you all the best!!!

People worried about repair costs should steer clear of used high-end cars.

The entrance fee may be reasonable, but to play with the big boys, you have to pay up to feed the beast.

Sounds like got ripped off. Evosport sells their high-po cats for under $300 for one. Not sure if they're primary or secondaries though.
