http://www.autotrader.com/fyc/vdp.js...g=1&cardist=75
I was browsing Autotrader and found this car. I love the wheels and the overall look of the car...the color wouldnt be my first choice but its kinda cool (rare) so i could get over it. But does this seem legit? $27,xxx for this car?????
Thanks

If you get a 03 and above you gain from MP3 enabled command system, larger command screen, 7speed gearbox.

Other than the mp3, screen, and 7spd, is there any other "facelifts" that are critical to making the car THAT much better? Anything major on the exterior?

The CL500 prices are falling very fast. I am trying to price my 2001 and every month the price seems to go down by $1000. That being said, if you do not like the color, why not wait a few months and get the color you like. Plum is not a color that most people will want when it comes time to sell you car. It is a rare color for the rare buyer. As for the car, try to avoid 1st year MBs. 2001 CL500 could be found in the low $30K. ABC (air suspensions) seems to be a big problem, the pump can go out after 5 years and it could be a $3,000 to $4,000 problem. A lot of CL windows do not close properly and require adjustments . My wife loves her CL, it is such a beautiful car but the car can be expensive after you buy the car. Try to find one that is Starmark or have an extended warranty.

I just bought a 2007 C230 Benz. Its very nice. Coming from corvette and an SRT10 truck the class is not an issue. The car rides and drives amazingly well. Not a rough ride being a "sport", has very comfortable seats, amazing stereo and navigatgion system.

But what does that have to do with a pre-owned CL 500???
