Advice purchasing used S580
It’s been 9yrs since I owned a S class, but I’m looking for a CPO ‘21 or ‘22. This new model has so many changes and I’m concerned buying a ‘21 due to missing options. I’m not looking to spend over 100k so want to stay under. Any advice if I do buy a 21 over a 22 model? Supposedly the ‘22 has missing options too…. With that being said what should I be looking for or asking dealer before making a purchase? Are dealers still holding firm on price or can you finally get decent deals now on used S classes?
Thanks for any feedback!

I recently got a very low mileage 2022 (3500 miles) for under $100k with all but one of the options I was looking for (AMG Line, Comfort, 4D sound, rear wheel steering, active ambient lighting). It was missing a very minor item (the air freshener thing in the glove box) due to the chip shortage and that was reflected in the build sheet/sticker. And I think the digital headlights were missing for all '22 models.

It's a novelty that I forgot about a week or two into ownership. Never use the associated moods either, also a novelty soon forgotten.
Your milage may vary but IMO if you want to pee away money you'll get more enjoyment out of 1k worth of beer.

I purchased two CPO Benz from Penske Auto and they were always willing to work to make a deal. I offered quite a bit under asking and they took the offer.

It’s hard to find a white with AMG package anywhere close by. After reading so many horror stories about the W223, I’m reconsidering saving a bunch of money and buying a 2020 S560. I love the exterior of 580 just not sold on interior yet.

I will say my S560 is the best car I have ever had, I have really, really tried to want the W223 but whenever I get back into mine, I just like it better.

I found a 2020 w/amg package loaded except warmth package CPO w/ 45k miles on it for 55k no stories. I’ll probably make an offer next week. Glad to hear you still love your 2020! I had a 2013 S550 and loved it.

I just bought an extended warranty for it, the lease is up in November and I'm going to at least keep it until then, likely will buy it out. Congrats!

Now I see why you will likely buy it out. I test drove a 2020 s560 today and was blown away by the comfort and power. Only thing that kept me from bringing it back home was there was a funny smell in car that smelt like bad body sweat so that was a deal breaker.

Fart alone in the vehicle... no need for air balance fragrance package 
Fart with others in the vehicle and/or others farting in the vehicle, then the air balance fragrance package becomes totally worth it. Only draw back is that the activation button is buried in a climate touch screen menu and makes it more difficult to initiate it in a timely manner. Maybe you could add it to a "favorites" button.
