We have the original owner's Georgia title to pass on to its new owner. Should the new owner choose to Google that previous address, he'll definitely know he's received an incredible used car value. GLWTA

As we approach the final 40 minutes, please allow us to answer one last question: We are indeed very long-term licensed Georgia dealers. Therefore, if you’re a Georgia resident, we must abide by GA law and collect the required 6.6% title tax (TAVT). If you’re a non-Georgia resident, however, we’ll collect precisely $0.00 above your winning bid (i.e., no surprise fees). Of course, a non-Georgia resident will be 100% responsible to register the car himself in his home state; almost certainly, he’ll need to pay sales tax and misc registration fees. Good luck to the Bidders! Thanks, David & Jeff.

@CaptainCat Thanks for your interest. The 2014 S550 does have Bluetooth telephone and Bluetooth audio capabilities. To our knowledge, Apple Carplay was not available on the S Class in 2014. Regarding the Distronic Plus functionality, we were able to find several videos on YouTube that address your question better than we can. For example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4s8juBLJh8I The brakes passed our mechanic's pre-sale inspection. After examining the brake components, I did not notice any excess grooving or corrosion on the rotors. The rear brake pads appear to be thicker than the front pads. At this point, there are no warning lights whatsoever indicating brake wear; furthermore, the brakes perform as they should with no evidence of vibration. If you have any other questions, please feel free to use the "Message Seller" tab.
@PrincetonMC Very nice looking car here. A couple of questions: does the car have bluetooth streaming and/or Apple Carplay functionality? Is the Distronic cruise control "full-spectrum" (meaning it works all the way to a stop in traffic)? Any indication that the brake pads or rotors have been replaced during its life? Thanks!
