Downhill with a tailwind? I get over 20 MPG in pretty much 50-50 mixed city/highway driving in my S430. The SL500 can do the same with the hardtop on. Dan > On Jun 28, 2015, at 2:39 PM, Kaleb C. Striplin via Mercedes > wrote: > > I have never seen close to that in a e320 gasser > > Sent f

I haven't pulled the trigger on any yet, but the Carfax Used Car Sales tool seems to be pretty well done. Lots of ways to dial in the search and a lot of cars available BTW. I like the guide that says if the prices are above or below the book price. Does anyone now if the 94 to 99-ish E cla

True, I didn’t look that closely. An AMG S320? I’m thinking not. Around here S320s struggle with competition from the big boys (S500/600) and don’t seem to command the prices the higher displacement models do. Occasionally you’ll come across a really nice one like my GoodFellows seller had
