Mercedes just reported a 9% drop in Q2 global sales, with even sharper declines in the U.S. and China. Tariffs have hit hard, especially on high-end models, and many dealers are holding extra inventory longer than usual.
Im thinking holding off a few months for a CPO 2024 S63. By then I should be able to find one under 140k if the decline continues.
What do you guys think?.

Might be true on a pedestrian S560 but the folks who typically buy or more likely lease a new S63 are not nearly as impacted by price fluctuations or market conditions. I do not see a world where you get a new S63 for basically 60K off MSRP. I could see more aggressive lease options but not wholesale fire sales on what is a very limited inventory of cars across the country. Sorry, just re read the post. I guess on a CPO or used you could see this kind of drop. I picked up my 2019 S63 in 2021 for around 120K with 9K miles on the clock, and 180K msrp. Be prepared for massive depreciation even on a good deal though as these cars drop like a prom dress on prom night for the fist 5-6 years post new sale. I would also highly recommend a warranty for your period of ownership. I picked up a Fidelity warranty for my car last year for under 5K and it has already paid out 3 times that in repairs.
