Maxima was better!

The car is not what I expected. It is very bad on gas. It is also not dependable. But it is very comfortable and I wish I had kept my 2004 Maxima. The cost was more than we had wished on paying. So if I had to do it again I would have to say I would not!
2006 Most Reliable Year for this model

I needed a good second driver as my cars are being given away to my kids. I have 4 Mercedes. So I did my research and found that 2006 was best year for this model. I found a super clean California, ultra low mileage 2006 S430, that had good local California service records and only one local owner before the dealer bought it from a local larger dealer who took the car in on a trade. It is silver on black, AMG sport package. Wheels almost flawless and wheels alone are valued around 2000.00 if sold separately. I got the car out the door at a small dealer for 10,000.00. Very happy with the purchase, it drives and shifts rock solid, AC blows wonderfully, everything works but I need to replace a broken cup holder and get the headlights resurfaced as they are a tiny little bit yellow, but clear. I simply cannot believe these cars in a more sleek body style are actually looking closer to the current S class models being sold today.

I wanted a business car to let clients and potential key employees know that our business is "for real", and this car fits the bill perfectly. The Lexus LS 430 has more electronics for less money, but just doesn't make the same statement. The command system is easy to use - but this is my second MB, so maybe I'm "trained" already. My wife has a new Lexus with navigation, and the 2006 Mercedes navigation is easier to use and much more intuitive - not at all what I expected, based on earlier year reviews. I thought I'd like the Lexus touch screen better - but the MB buttons are just so easy... I've had zero problems or defects, and I'm extreemly picky about my cars.

Purchased this one two months ago with 51,000 miles on it. Was looking at a S430 also, but now glad I purchased the S350. I didn't buy the car to race and the 3.5L engine is more than adequate to power this vehicle. It doesn't have all of the gadgets the S430 has, but then there are less gadgets to fail later on. Comfort and quality are all a Mercedes should be. This is by far the best driving Mercedes I have owned (my twelfth one). I thought my 1985 500SEC (Euro) was nice and my 1994 E420 was great, but this beats them hands down.
Great first benz
