Re: Brand new S65 AMG or used highly upgraded S65?

All the AMG 65 models lose 40-50% of their value in the first year so what ever your friend does, he should refrain from buying a brand new S65. Buying a 6-12 months old S65 should save him a whole lot of money.

The new one without doubt.

The black one looks almost fake...and is very ugly.

Re: Brand new S65 AMG or used highly upgraded S65?

It is a diffy. choise no doubt ..
Even for me,..

But I would probably get a used one, maybe done 3-6 000 km.
But maybe not that black one, but that just my personal taste.

So, as I said = used highly upgraded S65

Re: Brand new S65 AMG or used highly upgraded S65?

Doesn't the warranty become void if the car is modded out like crazy? I would buy an '07 S65 without all of the tasteless crap on that Renntech monster.

Well, actually I would buy an S320CDI but something tells me your friend (and you for that matter) would never go for that car!

If he likes the black one, that'd be the smarter buy.
