Regardless, figure a new car with a 105k sticker should go about 98-99k? So $10k less for a demo car with 2,000 miles. That doesn't sound too bad to me. But I've never bought a demo before. I don't know if I believe that a demo car was driven by no one other than the owner.
I guess it also depends on what options you want. It sounds like the car is missing something else besides the rear seat pkg, though. Maybe ABC? Depends on if the Rear Seat Package or the other feature is important to you.

im not sure eddie, it might be missing ABC and maybe something else not really that important to me, my sales rep did tell me it has pano roof, night view assist, rear blinds and side blinds, P2 package, amg package, heated steering wheel, and those are really the most important options to me. im going in on tuesday to look @ the car, hopefully bringing it home too....

I looked all over the country, literally, for an Andorite Grey S550 myself. Different dealers, btw, "found" different cars in their search which was interesting. But no one found the essentials I wanted, so I get to wait.

S550
If that was the Factory sticker and not the Dealer sticker it sounds like it has it all but one option. My S550 was 105 with every (incl Night Vision, Distronic Plus, and Rear Camera) option with the exception of the AMG body kit. Since AMG is a very common option, it' possible you don't have one option. Either way it sounds like a great deal because I picked my S550 up on 12/28, and I only go got a couple of thousand off. And the fact that it had 2000 miles on it is minor.

AMG package
Panorama Roof
iPod integration
Wood/leather steering wheel
Any of the wheel upgrades
And of course the designo packs
Exluding designo, I think a full optioned S550 nowadays in the US probably has an MSRP around $115k or so (including AMG). Crazy, huh?

Thanks for the compliment on the color, it's one I've loved for a long time though I did swear once I'd never get another car in black or near-black color with the climate in the northeast and those 'salty' months. I saw the color on a W210 E-class long ago at the autoshow in Toronto when I lived there, and it was a very lively color under the lights so my wife suggested that I get it this time.
What color combination did you order? I'm looking forward to seeing the Savanna Cashmere in the premium leather in my car when it arrives. The dealer promised me info for a committed production slot this week...keeping my fingers crossed.

You'll love the black opal. My brother-in-law has an e-class in that color, and I always admire it.
