Which car?
I was thinking real hard about an 07 Mystic White S600 in the hi 60's.
I might have to rethink if I can buy a new 09 S550 for under 80k!!

Test drive both, possibly back-to-back.
Then, hold on to your jaw (dropping to the floor)
Obvious choice.

It will likely just cost 10k/year depreciation.
The 09 S550 will drop 20k first year even with discount, then settle to 10k/yr.
In addition in 2-3 years the 550 will be a dime a dozen with plenty of supply and limited demand. There are always a good contingent of people looking for the exclusivity/performance/potential for modification of the bi-turbo V-12.
Lastly do you want to tell your buddies you just bought an S class or V-12 bi-turbo S class?
