| Question: Used S class Mercedes vs. new cheaper car? Why are they so cheap? Posted: 24 Apr 2015 08:41 PM PDT The S-Class isn't a Ferrari or some other exotic supercar. It is an expensive monster of a car that depreciates tens of thousands of dollars per year until it falls into the $10,000 range. Most people making huge amounts of money aren't going to buy a used luxury car; most also aren't going to keep one for longer than five years. This is great because dealers have to move the cars on to their second owners; you can buy one of the most respected names in luxury for the price of a dolled up Honda Accord. As far as maintenance goes, remember that a car that was once over $100,000 will have a number of expensive components and regular services are expensive. this is true when new as well as once the car has depreciated down to a $5000 car. This is the reality of owning a high end car; you can save a small fortune by learning how to do basic maintenance tasks.  |
