Question From Shabbi: how much should i pay for the 2006 ES 350 with 15k miles with the sports package and premium sound with dvd navigation. sticker price when bought was 57500
Queen of the Road: Welcome to our blog, Shabbi! What was the offering price.
For a 2006 Mercedes-Benz Sedan E350 with 15,000 miles, wholesale prices range from $23,100 (being in above average condition) to $21,200 (being in average condition) and $19,300 (being in below average condition).
A dealership will usually aim to sell it for +12%-14% more than wholesale, so their estimated retail prices could range from $21,100 to $25,300. A private seller will usually aim to sell it for 5%-10%. You may want to hike up the price a bit since there’s a DVD navi involved.
Check the carfax and do plenty of research on the history of the vehicle. Ask for their maintenance records. You can even bring a mechanic for a brief inspection.
