No longer a lexus lover? You like shopping. I do not see the carfax, so you need to find maintenance history. Some nice options. You have to like red!! Also like to spend money on maintenance and repairs, of which there will be some, or time doing it yourself. Get an inspection and cross your fingers. The entry price makes it appealing, but implies most of the good miles were in the past.

The price seems low for the mileage, but I’ve not done much cross shopping in this model.
It definitely needs an in person inspection but as recently as this week we have seen the vin decoder be wrong on an interior color, so I’m not sure how well those websites are working these days.
I personally love red, but I don’t know that it is for a large luxury sedan versus something on the smaller side.. typically luxury in large sedans means lighter colors like tan, beige, porcelain and sometimes blue. Red generally indicates sportiness and maybe it would be appropriate on an S 63.
2019 AMG S 65 and too many other vehicles to list here in this small box
I agree with @Baltistyle in that I love red also but that is too much red with that white exterior. I can't see this on anything other than a S63 and then it would need to be black or dark gray to make that red work.
For a typical S class in classy white, it looks great until you open that door and WOW... Get In and hold on, We are going for a ride...
Funny how that vin decoder gave a completely different car report back but the Carfox looks like it gave an accurate report and identified it as originally white but went black for the last 5 years with I assume a complete wrap.
Run, that interior has been very poorly painted and dyed. You can see some red overspray on one of the rear belts. That red paint and dye will be all over your clothes for as long as you own the car. I am guessing that is why they are selling it and for the price it is at. Too bad, so many of these cars get the boy racer treatment and it makes them very hard to sell. Looks to have been white with black interior at some point.
I thought that was stock, if it was painted then by aftermarket means then no.
I always wondered why the W222 never had a red interior. I think it looks great (although I wouldn't even touch that aftermarket altered interior). I like the new red interior in the 223 for example. It took Mbenz until 2021 to accept that red interiors are just fine in a car like S-class. I don't believe they've ever had a red interior in any S in the past. Brown was fine in the W222, but was hard to find and just felt "meh" in person and the contrast with the grey/bright dashboard was just way too much. I almost got an S560e PHEV in the past with brown interior.

Good catch on that, I only looked at one pic. You can also see the overspray behind the rear armrest.

Maybe they started offering it after replacing designo with manufaktur.

The overspray is indicative of a bad job. The difference in a re-die versus original coloring is similar to if you took your car and spray-painted it yourself to change the color and in this case did such a bad job that you left over spray all over the seals and tires and rotors. Sure the color will have changed, but nothing about the application would be similar to the manufacturing processes or quality.. and would not last likely even a year in this situation

From what I see, here are the obvious mods: Rotating Door Tweeteres, Ambient Lighting Turbine Vents, Red Dyed Interior, and Exterior Wrap(Accodrding to previous post - 2021 Sold as CPO color black metallic).
There are 2 ways to look at a car that has been heavily personalized. One; it's not original and the quality of the modifications could jeopardize future ownership experience. Two; someone really loved their car and decided to make it their own. That takes time and expense, which is an indicator that they really valued their car. You can choose which perspective makes more sense. Ironically, I'm just about to change my air vents to the lighted turbine vents like this car.
The red dye modification is not my favorite, but it might actually look nice in person, and they obviously cheaped out where the steering wheel emblem is concerned - that's too bad!
Scratch everything I said above and RUN! The VIN information doesn't match the car. The original had Semi-Amaline leather and this car has the basic Nappa leather, 2 steps below. Also, the VIN doesn;t have the night bpackage installed. They put the Carfax for a different vehicle in the listing.

It's a very bad spray/dye job at best. As others have said, overspray on various parts, even the front drivers seat shows in the first interior image. As someone who has built a lot of cars,trucks,etc from ground up, getting custom can be fantastic if the quality is there, regardless of the brand. This however, imagine what you can't see hidden from the eye, or internal. Much better ones out there to start with.
