About to part ways with my 20 S63 coupe, looking for the trade in insights
Almost set on my next car and trying to understand the value of my 20 S63 coupe with 22k miles on it. I think all of the options except external CF, Swarovski and night vision. Dual cameras, RC M, ALP, excellent condition in general. Any insights would be greatly appreciated.

2019 S63 4Matic+, 2018 E400 Cabrio, wardens car.
Probably not going to like the answer but you will be lucky to get low to mid 80's for it. Used cars are in the dump right now. Good news is the car you are buying should be discounted as well.

Beautiful Car!!! If I were you, I'd consign the car instead of sell directly or trade in; that way you'll get the highest price for it. I sold an Audi A8 and my MB S600 with Landmark, and the process couldn't have turned out better on both occasions. Park Place would also consign, but I've never bought or sold there. If you do that, be sure to talk to your insurance agent about it so they can adjust the coverage. Some will reduce your premium and some won't.

For me, consignment is the best way to get rid of a used car, you'll pocket more than a trade in and no hassles like selling it yourself. Only downside is you won't get trade in tax credit when you buy your next car. So you'll have to weigh the difference. In your case, it could mean $8k-$9K tax credit, so trading it in for your next car might be the better choice.
Full disclosure, I have no affiliation with Landmark, but they help me on my last purchase. I found my current car at a Ford dealership in Georgia. The GA dealer was a total *****. I had Landmark buy the car from them and ship it up here, then I traded my S550 in for the S63 locally. I got the tax credit and was able to fully test the car before siging on the dotted line. It wasn't about saving money, it was about peace of mind.

Thanks @carlosinseattle ! I'm getting more aligned on the trade in that makes it more meaningful and will either land it tomorrow or pull back into consignment model.

Be sure to deduct the consignment commission from the gross proceeds (selling price). Compare that number with a more traditional sale to a dealer or direct to consumer. Likely little to no difference, and consignment has the disadvantage of longer selling period because of higher price to a buyer who "appreciates" it.

Love S63Cp, but it become to some degree irrelevant with R1T taking daily driving duties and no need to get kids to school reduced the need in the extra two seats.
