Deal Of Deals? This S65 AMG Is Cheaper Than a Honda Civic
A high-mileage S65 like this one takes a savvy type of customer. It's a bit of a risk. But the rewards are great.

A bi-turbo V12 with 115,500 miles? No, thanks. I'd rather keep my E55 
I have to admit though, the 65 is beautiful, powerful and sounds like thunder.
But it will be a pain to maintain money-and-time wise, DIY is next to impossible with all the systems requiring access to STAR. And it's very tight in the engine bay you can't fit one hand.
I remember the CL65 review on "Edmunds" what a headache!

This really doesn't look particularly scary, but a thorough examination of the service history should answer any problems regarding this car. I'd estimate it will finish at around 20k, maybe a bit more. 115k miles isn't even particularly high, especially when they were most likely all highway miles, cruising at 2000rpm. It's a niche market luxobarge with a poor reputation, I have no doubt the dealer has had trouble finding a buyer. I hope that the new owner treats it well!
