2007 S600 Saks Edition, only 20 made

Hi there,

I'm a new member, this is my first post...I have a question. I have a brand new 2007 S600 Saks 5th Avenue edition, I was told there were only 20 made. I am considering selling it. Does anyone have an idea on where would be the best place to try to sell it and if there is a possibility of being able to sell it for a profit? I bought the vehicle for $155K, has under 300 miles, has been parked in my garage since I bought it. I also have a CL65 of which I prefer which is why I am considering selling the 2007 S600.

Thanks in advance...I'll definitely be visiting this forum more often!

Chris

Please post pictures, I do not believe that anyone else onthe forum has a '07 S600. I really do not know where the best location would be to sell the car but before you do please post pictures of the car. Congrats on S600 by the way.

I'll post pictures later, need to go to my office garage to take them.

How do you like your Maybach? I used to have one, but I sold it. I liked the car, but I felt like you should be cheauffeured around in that car and not driving it yourself, which is why I sold it. You've got a nice collection!

" Mercedes-Benz USA (MBUSA) to offer the first 20 all-new 2007 S600 flagship sedans as an exclusive Signature Edition model that will be available only through the Saks Fifth Avenue annual "The Gift" holiday catalog. Priced at $145,775 (MSRP including $775 destination and delivery), the exclusive and limited Signature Edition S600 Sedans will be delivered to 20 lucky owners before the S-Class debuts in dealerships for public retail.

The Signature Edition S600 will feature an envy inducing 5.5-liter biturbo V12 engine that delivers 510 horsepower and 612 pound-feet of torque.

Surrounding the commanding engine, the Signature Edition S600 will wear stylish Mocha Metallic Black exterior paint and wrap passengers in a warm almond beige interior. Hand-polished Piano Lacquer Black wood accentuates the dash and doors. The almond beige colored dash console lightens the cabin with soft surfaces and artful style, while contrasting black carpets and headliner envelop the driver and passengers in tasteful elegance.

A generous complement of standard equipment will also be featured. Highlighting the striking interior and creating a greater sense of space, a dramatic transparent glass Panorama Roof will run the length of the cabin. Dynamic Rear View Monitor and Parktronic are especially convenient for city navigation. Audiophiles will delight in Sirius satellite radio and a DVD audio changer, both of which present superior listening variety and audio quality through all fourteen speakers and 600 watts of the harman/kardon Logic7 surround system. Drive Dynamic Seats have four massage levels that work throughout the seatback to reduce muscle fatigue, and Night View presents infra-red driving assistance."

So basically its the same thing as the Launch Edition except with different colors, a bigger engine, and spme xtra features that the LE lacks

UPDATE: Heres a picture of the interior of the S600 Saks Edition......I think the color combination is sweet.

I love my Maybach, yes I agree, having a driver is the proper way to travel in a Maybach. My driver loves his job.

Talk about stance. That car out shadows the X5 and the CL in those pictures!

Here's more pics...
Also, this is a write up about the car that I found online, hope it gives you some more info on the car:

Unfortunately for 700 people on a waiting list to purchase the Sak's
Mercedes S600, only 20 were lucky enough to actually get their hands
on one. According to Fashion Week Daily, the limited edition luxury
sedan sold out in less than seven minutes.

That engine start/stop button is a beautiful shot!

Those are a lot of V12 emblems everywhere.

I currently have a CL65 and a CL600 along with the S600. Want to sell the S600 for now, and maybe get another car later in the year.

Nice looking vehicle, were those Saks cars early production models? The earlier S550s got the ridiculous-looking "vertical stabilizer" antenna on the trunk, looks like you got the newer style.

Great car greenchris! Very nice interior treatment. Nice quality images also...the shot of the KG plug-in is the best I have seen anywhere.

Good luck on the sale...with 700 on the waiting list you should get someone who wants that specific model.

Beautiful looking car! I see that they still have those "dinner platter" looking wheels. I hope they give an AMG option with different wheels!
