2014 S550
Moving up from and E500

Hi All,

I just took ownership of a 2014 S550 Anthracite Blue and Beige Interior, with 25,000 miles. CPO for one year with 2 months left on the factory warranty. I had my 2003 E500 for almost 15 years and 195K miles. I absolutely loved that car even with some of the problems I had over the years. The interior was still looking exceptional the outside was in very good shape as well. It started to have airmatic problems in the rear and needed rear shocks and was leaking a little oil from the top of the engine but ran very smooth and still powerful. I went to look for a 2016 E350 or a 2014 E550. I saw an S550 and drove that after I drove the E350 and once I did there was no going back.The S550 is amazing to look at and drive. The interior is fantastic compared to anything else I have ever had. The options are the premium one package, comfort package, air balance, surround view and driver assist.

Congrats,I think you made the right decision as S Class is the ultimate Mercedes-Benz to me
CPO is on the other hand is right call too ,as those cars are packed with full bunch of electronics

Thanks! I am going to email the contacts from the warranty section and get 2 additional CPO years, I am sure they are going to be cheaper than my dealer.

Ha, I just dumped my 2014 S 550 a couple of weeks ago. I still have a few odds and ends from it too: extra cup holder, back seat remote......a HARD COPY manual.......wheels

Congrats on the trade in, it floats like a boat and has tons of power too, enjoy! Post some pics too
