Should have gone for a C-Class, a 3-Series, or a G35.

Are you saying you shouldn't buy a used car?

Cylinder head is saying he purchased a car that was out of his price range to say "i have a CLS55" and he got a lemon. Rather than buying a good car that was solidly in his budget. Nobody buys an off color high mile problem CLS55 with accident damage, a blown transmission, electrical and mechanical issue that breaks down on the drive home. If they can afford a low mile clean perfect one.

Since I'm so dumb, can you show me an above average 55 w/40k for $33k?

Thanks.
