Without MB warranty

I wouldn't touch it, with MB warranty looks like a good buy.

Even with warranty thats way too high. Too many miles. That must have been someone's daily driver.

Personally, id rather have an 03-04 with 25k miles then an 06 with 65k.. yeah the navi is better.. but better at what cost? I think the navi in the 06 sucks anyway.

And you can find an 03-04 maybe an 05 with 25-35k miles for 40k

E 63S Wagon Renntech, E55 Renntech, SL65, SL 55 030, ML, bunch of old ones--they come, they go...

I can't help but wonder....

if some of these folks are the ones who told somebody to pass on a 55 a few days ago because "the miles were dangerously low". Always amusing.....

There are so many threads on warranty. I chose the chrysler factory plan (http://www.chryslerfactoryplans.com/). It paid for itself after I owned my 55 for ~40 days. I have read other threads on benzworld that people had issues collecting on their warranties.
I would suggest whatever you chose, make sure you get an inspection because warranty companies like to say an issue is a preexisting condition.
