This 2005 Mercedes-Benz S600 was originally sold through Fletcher Jones Imports of Chicago in November of 2004 and shows subsequent registration in Colorado and North Carolina and currently has 45k miles from new. Finished in designo Graphite Metallic (041) over Exclusive Graphite Green Leather (571), power is provided by a twin-turbocharged 5.5-liter V12 paired with a five-speed automatic transmission. This flagship sedan features an optioned AMG Sport Package, Bi-Xenon Headlamps, Parktronic, Dynamic heated and ventilated front seats, heated and ventilated power reclining rear seats, Keyless-Go, and four-zone automatic climate control. This W220 also includes rare 19” Cromodora S65 AMG wheels. The clean Carfax report shows majority dealer service with some independent service hits. Additionally, in preparation for the sale, this S600 received an oil service, new PSE pump, engine mounts, transmission mount, door actuators, and a pedal assembly. The car is offered by the selling dealer out of Darien, Wisconsin with factory literature and a clean North Carolina title.
The car is finished in designo Graphite Metallic (041) and features the AMG Sport Package consisting of sculpted, more aggressively styled bumpers, side skirts, and chrome twin exhaust tips. Additional features include bi-xenon headlights, a power glass sunroof, Parktronic, soft-close doors, a power-operated trunk lid, and auto-dimming side-view mirrors with integrated signal lighting. New soft close door actuators have been installed by the selling dealer in preparation for the sale. The bi-xenon headlights are in excellent condition with little UV damage and no cloudy plastic. The Carfax report lists no accidents or other damage reported.
This S600 features OEM staggered 19” multi-piece Cromodora wheels off a S65 AMG measuring 19x8.5” and 19x9.5” respectively. Michelin Pilot Sport All Season 4 tires are mounted and measure 245/40 in the front and 275/35 in the rear with 2022, 2023, and 2025 date codes shown. The car is equipped with ABC suspension and recently received four new ABC struts in September of 2024. A power steering line was installed in April of 2025 at 44,885 miles. Brake pads, rotors, fluid, shoes, and drums were done in 2022 at 30k miles.
The cabin shows Graphite Green Exclusive Leather (571) covering the seats and door cards with gray Alcantara accenting the headliner. Designo Brown Poplar veneer adorns the center console, dashboard, door cards, steering wheel, and shift knob. Amenities include Dynamic heated and ventilated front seats, heated and ventilated power reclining rear seats with lumbar, four-zone automatic climate control, Keyless-Go, Parktronic, electric rear roller blind with manual rear door window blinds, and Bose audio. Unlike most V8-powered examples, this S600 shows stitched leather upper and lower hides along the doors and dashboard. The COMAND screen is showing discoloration and the rear climate control toggle switches show as missing. Rear vanity mirrors are covered in Brown Poplar as well as all four grab handles.
The wood and leather-trimmed steering wheel frames a 160-mph speedometer, a 7k-rpm tachometer, and gauges for coolant temperature and fuel level along with multifunction displays controlled by buttons mounted to the steering wheel. The digital odometer indicates 43k original miles. Some cracks are shown in the poplar wood veneer on the steering wheel.
The twin-turbocharged 5.5-liter M275 V12 was factory rated at 493 horsepower and 590 lb-ft of torque. Power is sent to the rear wheels through a 722.6 five-speed automatic transmission. The included Carfax report shows service history including lots of dealer servicing. Additionally, in preparation for the sale, this S600 received a new PSE pump, engine mounts, transmission mount, and oil change. Other notable services include regular spark plug services, new radiator, new coolant, new battery, and regular oil changes.
The car is offered by the selling dealer out of Darien, Wisconsin with factory literature and a clean North Carolina title.
We love a W220 and this example boasts an utterly handsome paint color with a rare designo interior on the right wheels with the right tires. Overshadowed by the W221 and W140, the 2000-2006 S-Class is a bargain for those of us that enjoy the early 2000s S-Class. When taken care of, they’re solid, dead quiet on the road, and have one of the best seats Mercedes-Benz has built. Plus the rear passenger cabin is a wonderful, luxurious place to spend time. Paired with the absolutely brutal but refined M275 V12, this car is still faster than pretty much everything being made today. Mercedes-Benz dominated the horsepower wars in this era with the addition of forced induction on a lot of their engines. These motors are proven to be reliable and robust. Did we mention the paint color and wheels already? Perfection.

@jimseeger. Undercarriage and road test videos have been submitted. Please let me know if you have any other questions!@MB54. It is not that bad or noticeable but I definitely wanted to disclose them!$10,000 bid placed by @JNicholson
Could you comment further on steering wheel cracks. Photo doesn’t look too bad ?Underside photos have been added to the gallery.A video has been added to the auction listing.$9,250 bid placed by @2018trackhawk
Would like to see a full complement of undercarriage photos + cold start and driving videos.To add a small correction to the description of the leather color as graphite is only part true. The majority of the seating surfaces are actually (in this case) color X14, which is called designo graphite green. You can see the color in the pictures. I have the same color combo in my SL550, but can also be labeled as designo corteccia as is mine. It is gorgeous,especially with the graphite paint, and much more interesting than all over graphite. The dash and other areas are graphite, or black. This is a gorgeous example and someone should be very happy!@GenevaMotorCars I stand corrected. I have a 03 S55 and I am used to those seats, I'm looking for a S65 so these are the seats I'm used to. You're car is beautiful! Very thankful to learn something new, thank you kind sir!$9,000 bid placed by @JNicholson

@stonecloser. While is not our goal to correct the community, these are the correct seats for an 05 S600. They also match the rears as they should. We sell a number of 220s, and are pretty well versed in them. The pre-facelift seats also have different head rests. Attached is a link of another identical Designo Graphite edition with the same seats. Please let me know if you have any other questions! https://bringatrailer.com/listing/2005-mercedes-benz-s600-21/Why does it have the early 2002 and older front seats that do not match the rear nor are they the correct seats for a 2005 S600. Please clarify. Cheers, Nick$8,000 bid placed by @JNicholson
