Post 2003 S430 (Not 4Matic)

Does anyone know the going rate? It's in immaculate condition with 30K and has every option on it, including the handsfree phone.

I've heard it's anywhere between $25,000 - $29,000. Is that correct? How would you know if the car is worth the full price or if it's at the bottom of the range?

Depends, In CA a 4matic car commands no premium. Can get one under 20k. In the northeast it would be worth a lot more.

A Mercedes obviously!
Depends on the miles and the options. $25k+ sounds way on the high side for an average condition, average miler '03 vehicle.

For a private party sale I think you'd do well to take anything with a 2 at the beginning.

I'm not familiar with the values around your area, but try the Kelly Blue Book site and the NADA site and take a look at Auto Trader listings. You should be able to see the price range after that.

Thar car is worth abut 14K tops and only becaue of the miles. Forget KBB and look at the market. I took my 2004 off the market @18K because there were few who wanted to pay that and it's immaculate.
Most options have no resale value.
