I do need your advice gents

I am planning to buy s550,everybody know that every new car generation first year has some problems that the engineers didn't found it during test drive so that most guys will stay away from first production cars and so I am,but when I think to go with 2015,I found there is a difference in prices which really effects my budget so I think I will be more smarter and think in buying a 2014 which has more vin number for example u found s550 the last number is EA009412 and other car EA056090 so I was thinking buying the other car which I think it was manufactured late 2014.
So what do you think gents?

4yr / 50k mile warranty that comes with every new car will provide you the safety net for any first year teething pains and niggling issues (and even more coverage if you buy used with a cpo certification). what it wont do is make up for the consternation and frustration of having to take the car back to dealer for service over and over and over.

You're exporting, even more reason to get a 2nd year run or 2015

The definition of a truly rich man is one who will buy an S Class that is out of warranty. Get as much as you can, including extended warranty.

I fully agreed with you sir,I have no concern regarding regular service cost,my concerns is manufactured faults which required recalls that should be done by dealer,I found a nice 2014 s550 for $75k while similar car cost me $100k in Dubai.

I suggest that you look for a car in Russia right now. the Dirham has gained against the Ruble so you have more purchasing power. There are a lot of nice S Classes for sale there.
