This 2009 Mercedes-Benz S550 4MATIC was first leased when new under a 2-year lease. It remained in New Jersey from 2009 through the present and was acquired by the current owner and seller, who happens to be a Mercedes-Benz technician, in 2017. Finished in Flint Grey Metallic (368) over Anthracite Leather (201), this S550 is powered by a 5.5L M273 V8 paired to a seven-speed automatic transmission driving all four wheels via 4MATIC. Features on this example include bi-xenon headlamps with active curve illumination, an electric rear roller blind, heated and ventilated front seats with multi-contour function, harman/kardon premium sound, and much more. The included Carfax report shows some logged service records throughout the car’s lifespan and the seller has noted the following services under their care: A B-Service, new front brake pads and rotors, new rear brake pads, a brake fluid flush, new motor mounts, a new engine oil cooler, an new oil filter housing, new engine air filters, new cabin air filters, a new radiator, a coolant flush, and a new battery.

The exterior is finished in Flint Grey Metallic (368) and features aluminum trim along the windows, lower door panels, grille, and bumpers. Notable exterior features and options include bi-xenon headlamps, power folding mirrors, soft-close doors, and 18" standard wheels. The included Carfax shows accidents reported in 2014, 2021, and 2024. While the first two accidents don’t give much detail, the one in 2024 was noted to be minor.
OEM 18” multispoke wheels are fitted and wear Continental tires measuring 255/45 at all four corners with 2022 date codes. The wheels show a few signs of curb rash and disc brakes feature drilled rotors up front. The seller does note new front brake pads and rotors along with new rear brake pads.
In the cabin, the seats, armrests, door cards, dashboard, and steering wheel are upholstered in Anthracite Leather (201). Matching carpets trim the footwells and Burl Walnut veneer trim adorns the center console, door cards, armrest, and steering wheel. Interior features include dual-zone climate control, heated and ventilated front seats, and an electric rear roller blind for the rear window. The cabin shows little to no wear throughout and the only feature noted to be inoperable are the rear headrests which are stuck in the upright position. The center headrest has been removed for visibility.
The leather-trimmed steering wheel frames a 160-mph digital speedometer, 7k-rpm tachometer, and a digital odometer with trip function showing just over 130k miles. Additional readouts include fuel level and coolant temperature, along with digital readouts for various assistance programs, outside temperature reading, and infotainment menus.

Whole lot of car for the $$$. Still DAS, makes tweaking easy in Star. With so many being ridden down to the ground well maintained examples are a Harder find. This very much looks to be the latter. Glwta, if it was non 4M I'd have to give it a run, but this far down south it's just not needed.$3,250 bid placed by @Stevehall

MSerpe, I will get pictures posted showing the extensive service history including my servicing. Being a exclusive M.B. Tech for the last 50 years I agree with the importance of maintenance.The front struts, air compressor and valve block were replaced starting at 101,477 miles I see no invoices for the rear but do have the Beilstein name on them with no M.B. star, indicating the were replaced. Fronts are Arnott. The car sits perfect and does not drop down.Transmission was service at49,895 miles along with other servicing 95% completed At M.B. A report from M.B. is also available.I did the brakes, including fluid change and flush. My servicing and repairs has a invoice total of $5,336.58 Happy Bidding!$1,000 bid placed by @GavinMB
@pjkieff Nice color, these are great cars if maintained......one of the most important things to note on this car is the how old the air suspension components are (if ever replaced). Another, less expensive, is last time the transmission had its filter and fluid service, and last time the differentials had their fluid services, last time brake fluid was changed or show if it has any water in it now. If you can make photos of the service records and upload as individual pics it will be most helpful to achieve a number you are happy with. GLWTA!
