Yeah, but it never sold in big numbers.
 
I think they priced it wrong. Usually a minivan is cheaper than a similar SUV from the same make.
 
In the case of the Benz, the R class costs a lot more than an ML.

Different platform, etc., but they were introduced by the same parent company, in the same market, at the same time. I still refer to it as the "Mercedes minivan."

Lately, I've seen quite a few of them in my neck of the woods (Long Island, about 30 miles east of NYC). They're usually piloted by 30-something mommies.

Man, that's like 50% off a new one!
  
Price isn't bad. Wholesale is $21k.
Is it Certified?

 
It's a nice looking vehicle inside and out but it's not certified. I asked the salesman why it wasn't certified and he said that since becoming part of Group 1 Automotive they no longer certify vehicles.
Last night I was checking ebay prices and I saw one with 34k miles sell for $22k. I may offer them $26.5k with an extended warranty ( only if the wife likes the car, she didn't like the size of the Expedition EL I asked about a couple of weeks ago).

Would it be YOUR vehicle?
 
Hey, I like them ... kind of. But we had a Pacifica, too. If I knew we could have gotten an R for so little, we may have checked it out. But it would have been the wife's primary, not mine. I would have tried hard to find a diesel, too.

It would be mine. However, I do ride my motorcycle to work when I'm not carpooling!

Unmolested, it's prob worth $21k on a trade.
