The Mercedes S Class is a flagship gem, it’s been around for several generations and comes off as one of the most timeless and elegant sedans on the market. The S Class has earned the title of “king of the road”. S Classes depreciate fast because they are leased when new and rack up miles. You can get a 2013 S Class S550 for around $13k with less than 70k miles. It has 430HP and can go from 0-60 in 4.9 seconds. It has an average of 15mpg. This is the W221 generation, but the styling and features are still pinnacle. It has night vision, Bluetooth, driver assistance, massage seats, adaptive seats that turn when the car does and two turbos in a V8, pretty nice. This is a car I would recommend to someone that wants a luxury sedan on a budget.
