2012 Merc S550, reliability, etc.
Wife is in the market for a new car right now. We're pretty much decided on a 2012 S550 4matic. They've already depreciated like crazy so IMO are an absolute steal, it's low mileage, still under warranty and I'm able to purchase an extended warranty through MB.
I've done a fair bit of searching into reliability and can't find much besides reviews that are within the first year of ownership (which are almost always good). It seems like most of the people that own these things trade them in every 2 years so I can't find a while lot on long term reliability.
I know there's a ton of MB fanboys on this site and many of you own similar vehicles (there's some cls550s, cl550s on this site) so just curious what you guys think of these things, I spend a lot of time out of town so I don't want my wife to be stranded while I'm away.
We stopped checking for monsters under our beds when we realized they were inside us.
