I've had an 07 for a couple years, love it. I'm looking at a little newer, lower mileage version. I'm currently looking at an 09 with some kind of special edition plate on the rear trunk lid. It has a signature on it. Black with black wheels. 86k Miles. It drove pretty smooth, but didn't feel as powerful as my 07. I don't know if the all wheel drive made the difference or what but if felt like it slowed down quickly and also didn't have the same lunge out of the gate. Anybody with experience between these two models? My 07 is rear wheel drive. I'd love to hear some opinions.

Surely the asterisk is meant to be an icon representing the sun? ☀

I got a 2011 s550 never had a problem

those cars will run forever, just do regular service and maintenance, I’m from Europe, these cars sell all day long with 300K - 400K and no serious issues, often you’ll find them with over 500K miles , and they’re not cheap either …. we are very lucky because here in US these luxury vehicles depreciate by the speed of light , not so in Europe

You should!

Congrats and enjoy. I'm picking up my 2013 S550 in a few days. Its my 3rd S-Class and 4th Mercedes. The one caveat is be prepared to shell out some cash to maintain especially the airmatic suspension.

Keep it! Fix it!

Too late! I sold it to somebody who is going to fix it up. He actually has owned the same car multiple times so he has all the know how and he can predict problems before they even happen.

I know I left a comment in your 2nd episode of this. I would highly advise to replace the Airmatic leak at a reputable independent Mercedes repair facility asap to avoid destroying the pump and being stranded. Of course, get those tires replaced asap to avoid losing control and having a Punture that's a heavy car. Again, I would consult with a honest independent Mercedes repair facility. Best wishes!

​@@guys_garage keep up the good work buddy Nice videos. Ans good luck

Without the purchase price numbers these videos are kinda pointless

I watched about 1/6 of your video because you talk too much but my thought is, why would you want to buy a car with rear tires that look like that. Someone obviously didn't give a damn about that car.
