@hennessy1414 Congratulations!  

Wrapping up this listing in the next 30 minutes. If anyone still has questions on the S500 4Matic, whether it's service history, condition, anything you want to double check before it's gone, now's the time to ask. Happy to answer directly. Thanks to everyone who's been following along on this one.

@jaiello21 My pleasure!

@jaiello21 unfortunately it does not, the key card has gone bad.  We tried new batteries without any success, I referenced it in the driving video as well, thank you.

@Powerballz I saw it on the Carfax and I didn’t think it was a big deal considering the discrepancy was so small, the condition of the vehicle was impeccable and it was not a concern for me.  I’m sure it could’ve been rectified if I hadn’t brought it back to Virginia and titled it in my name.  We didn’t have the luxury of time to go to the DMV when I went up to New Jersey to purchase the vehicle unfortunately.

@Powerballz it was just a typo when a mileage entry was being recorded.

For the record: both the father and son were named on the title and bill of sale at the time I purchased it — this is documented, not something I'm asserting after the fact.
Once I bought it, I had the necessary mechanical work done to make sure the car was sound, and had the wheels professionally powder coated and that's reflected in the presentation of the vehicle. None of this is unusual or something I've hidden — it's the same information that's been in the listing from the start.
I don't think any of this is relevant to the sale, and I'm not going to treat it as something that needs justifying. If you have a specific question about the car's current condition, I'm glad to answer it.

@Onesahil not sure why you would make this type of an assumption and post it publicly, it would have made more sense for you to contact me directly to confirm before make this type of statement which could negatively affect the auction and buyer confidence.  This vehicle was never flipped or owned by anyone other than the father and son that I purchased it from whom I met in person and verified at the sons home in NJ.

@PGT_FTW  the second owner was the son of the first owner, who took the car up to New Jersey and decided to sell it to me. No dealers were involved.

@mikelaca the tint was on the vehicle when I purchased it so I have no information on that, happy to take some close-up pictures, all of the Glass on the vehicle is original.

Hi everyone, thanks for stopping by. A bit about this car and about me as the seller: I’m a longtime enthusiast who’s bought, sold, and maintained classic Mercedes for over 20 years, and this W220 S500 4Matic is genuinely one of the cleanest examples I’ve come across. With just 28,000 original miles, it doesn’t just look low-mileage — it feels it. The interior is tight and rattle-free, the paint and trim show none of the fading or wear you’d expect from a 20+ year old car. On the road it drives new — smooth, tight, and confidence-inspiring, with none of the looseness or clunks that creep into cars with real-world mileage. It’s well documented and mechanically sound throughout.

I know buying a car sight-unseen is a big leap of faith, so I’m committed to full transparency here. Over the next day or two I’ll be posting a cold start video, a driving video, and a full walk-around, along with close-up undercarriage photos, so you can inspect the car as thoroughly as if you were standing in front of it yourself. I’ll also answer every question honestly and promptly, including anything that isn’t flattering — my goal is for you to bid with total confidence, not just hope. Fire away with questions below, I’m here all week.”
