03 S600 - Go for it?
Folks - I have the opportunity get a 03 S600 with a build date of 02/03. It only has 23500 miles.
Are there any major issues with this car\year\model. Should I stay clear of it or go for it.
Is there a specific year I should look at or is the 03 a sfe year for a 600.
Should I go for the V12-600-6speed or look for a V8-500.
Thanks for any advice in this decision

Yeah I agree with Benzdriver. Alot of people I have talked to, they recommend that I should get V8 instead of V12. In other words the S55. Most of them tell me V12 has too many issues and too expensive to maintain. I can't decide an E-Class Bluetech or one of these nice great size S-Class luxury sedans.
