2010 CL65
Tough sale

Capri blue looks purplish in sunlight

This copy has the codgerly burl walnut trim and steering wheel, not the std (for '09) sport steering wheel and cf interior trim

And '10 65s aren't more than 6 mths away, w/likely 30 more hp and extensive new active safety tech and Comand interface

New 65s (properly spec'd) sell easily at major dealers in SF and BH (easier sales than 63s or 600s even in today's economy)....but someone bungled order of this laughable codger/transgender 65

I can't believe it's used with only 28 miles. The buyer must have had a quick change of heart.

Car was ordered by Carlos Zambrano (Chicago Cubs) who declined delivery.
It sits in their inventory since October I believe,they refused $170k offer,will be stuck with it until they finally relent and sell it for $150k or less....

If he declined delivery, why is it used. So if this cars warranty has been running since October, it makes it even less attractive at the prices they are looking to get out of it.

I agree that much of the comments are about taste, but a wood steering wheel does not belong in an S65. If you drive it right, your hands will sweat and lacquered wood is downright dangerous.

The other comments about competing with a 2010 are good practical advice to a dealer who made a mistake in punching the paperwork is is compounding the error with greed.

I am not a fan of wood steering wheels either...not my taste. I just wouldn't call it a transgendered 65...as someone else said..

Let's just say it's not conducive to *****-out driving, so maybe the description is not that inapt. Post-op clearly.

Probably misprint.
Car is still on MSO, with warranty still intact.

Oh, I wish they would have figured that out for the MYs 07 and 08 as well (that's probably what I'll get someday). Very bad since they already had it right on the previous 2006 S65..

I've noticed on the sport steering wheels, the airbag covers for the S65s aren't leather covered. Why not?
