Stupid question. by shued

I know ML is made in USA. Also, for C class if the 5th letter in VIN is
F, then it means the car is built in Germany. But for R-class,
Where is R class made? in USA, or in Germany?

2006 MB R 350 CPO San Fran Bay Area by big_ta

Hi I am planning to buy a MB R 350 from a MB dealer as a Certified Pre Owned (CPO). The various add around the bay area shows USD 25K for a 20-30K Mile car with different options. The lowest one is from one dealer called ACA cars. I have not heard them before. Any Idea what a good price would be? Edmunds TMV quotes about 22K to 27K range. Any one here is buying any CPO in the Bay Area. How much is the dealer ready to bring down from the offered price?

All R class is made in the USA in Alabama plant along with the ML SUV. One more reason to be worried about the quality.

I bought mine recently in bay area. R350 2006 with around 28k miles. CPO.
With AMP package, Nav, etc. Paid 26.5. Looks like the price has gone up by few k in the last few weeks as R's have been selling well. As the options seem to vary a lot, I went for comparison using the list price and mine was around 60k.

How do you like it? I am worried about the maintenance of an old MB. How much service does the extended warranty covers and what does it cover? And once warranty is over, if I have to fix something on a MB, do I have to pay really high. I have an Audi, but for 4 years, everything is covered in this vehicle. I have heard horror stories about fixing old MB where even a regular work cost 700$ and any major fix can be 3K or more. I don't want to pay more later for an even older car to fix.

A dealer is giving R500 12k miles for $31k, does this seem to be the going price for this car ? Looks like this price is very attractive.. Thanks !

Maintenance Cost by shued

Hi, Guys:
In Bay Area, for C280, dealer will charge $230 for serice A - engine oil and filter change plus several visual check, $720 for service B - engine oil/filter, air filter, cabin duct filter, plus several viusal check. So definitely, it is expensive.
For R350 with less than 30K miles, if you can get it between 20K-25K, I think it is good price. R and ML are built at USA, it has much lower reliabilty than C, E class.

R350 -2006 model $26600 - 12k miles by varunku

I just bought a R350 2006 model for $26600 + Tax with 12 k miles on it. I didn't check that the nav was working, it wasn't listed in the options for the car. But I did see a NAV DVD slot in the car. Can someone help let me know if a car without navigation comes without this DVD nav slot ? I just want to make sure that the car I had purchased has NAV option. I bought from mercedese dealer so I hope I wasn't misled. Thanks !

maybe it is missing the actual DVD. I'm not sure, but I believe my R350 has a DVD in the nav slot.

If it wasn't listed in the options then you weren't mislead. No big deal though, you can get a garmin or tom-tom portable that works fine for a great price. If your deal was certified you got a good deal -- only 12k!
