Looking at picking up a nice 07 S600 with still a few years of warranty.
The car has 25k on it and price is $65,000. Thoughts from other owners
or concerns?

 

Anyone???

 

It's a great car. It's the V12 which is a pretty bulletproof engine, in my opinion. It's fast and luxurious.

 

thanks.... anyone else with experience with these cars?

 

s600 is one of my personal favorites...its an excellent car to drive...the engine provides the perfect amount of power for such a large sedan...i always felt the power on the 550s fell a bit short...the only issue that i would make note of is its obviously an extremely gas thirsty car but if you're ok with that i would encourage you to use the current state of market to get into a beautiful german sedan at almost half the cost of original sticker

 

Is the market for these cars really 65K? If so I would love to pick one of these to replace my S4.

I have driven an S550 a few times and liked it a lot. Plus, the mod potential for the bi-turbo V12 is very good.

 

Check ebay. You have many choices. The guys on other sites cars.com autotrader that are asking 70k plus have had those cars for months.

 

I have an 03' S600. Great car. With the ECU tuned, they make about 525rwhp. Mine is chipped with a CM30 intercooler pump. They go mid 11's at 120mph down the track. Not many cars with AC/heated seats can do that!

Good luck.

 

trying to decide on an 07 S600 or new 09 S550. The 09 550's are being discounted about 20k off sticker!

 

Buy the 07 and let somebody else take the depreciation hit instead of you. Just my .02.

 

I would probably take the 2007 and then just get an extended warranty or see if the car is a CPO. Even if you have to pay for extended warranty, you will still be saving a bunch of money and getting a much more powerful car.

 

Well said!!

 

thanks for the info
