Finally bought a car...Loaded
I found a black 2005 with every option except parktronic. It has pano roof with the solar panel, ventilated seats with drive dynamic, keyless go, dvd commmand nav, rear sunshade, bi xenon with turning, Birdseye maple with black interior, Sirius, and the only thing I do not see is parktronic. The dealer is sending me the MB info tomorrow. I am excited. Car has 47k miles which is on the high side for a 2005, but the car will most likely sit in the garage most of the time as I have a new work truck. I paid 48. What do you guys think?

CAr has distronic, but not the side shades. Not a big deal. I will get a warrenty through MB most likely. Carfax was a one owner who had it for a year and a half. Dealership was a Luxury car dealer. Not Mercedes though. So no extra year warrenty. That is fine. I have like 30 months left of the factory warrenty or like 3k miles.

For some reason I thought the Solar Panel was only available on 04's and earlier. Did I dream this???
Congrats on the car though, let us know what you think after a few weeks of ownership, wait, I already know, you will love it.

TPMS: Read the manual to get to the correct screen. Using the OBC controls on the left side of the steering wheel, you will scroll through the screens. The screen you are looking for will have a car with pressure read outs for each corner.

Thanks for the help guys. I am an IT guy by trade. I probably will be able to fumble my way through it. Never thought I would own this kind of refined power before i was 30 though. Feels good. Well as long as the car is all that the carfax , pictures, and manager says... I will be ecstatic. It will look good sitting in the driveway next to the Lx470.

Congrats... but AFAIK, solar panel is only available in '04. Unless, mine is somehow not visible from outside.
I hope this is not the one you're buying (seems quite accidental... same year, similar mileage, same color, similar price, has pano, etc.). If it is, I hope you haven't sent the money yet.... the car is not as loaded as you mentioned above and it's not one owner. I hope you've checked those....
