Mercedes is known for their luxurious interiors and they do not exclude their C series from this reputation. The Mercedes C320 Sport Wagon combines classic lines with a luxurious ride. It is powered by a 215 hp and 221 lb of torque 3.2 liter 6 cylinder engine. The Mercedes C320 Wagon comes with an automatic transmission and is able to go 0-60 in about 7.5 seconds.

Handling is crisp and the transmission is relatively smooth (except for a mild hesitation when you first step on the gas pedal). What makes the Mercedes C320 Sport Wagon so compelling is the luxurious accommodations and beautiful lines.

The rear wheel drive Mercedes C320 Wagon was produced from 2002, 2003 and 2004, but keeping with our $10K to $20K price range we could only include the 2001 and 2002 model years.

When you see a C in front of any Mercedes you typically think of their lower end models. If that is the case then the C63 has redefined what auto manufacturers on this playing field can release at this level.

Mercedes Benz sank a magnificent 457 hp 6.2 liter V8 under the hood of the C63 with hopes of spoiling the soon to be released competing new BMW M3. Capable of rocketing 0 to 62 mph in 4.5 seconds and a limited (electronically) top speed of 155 mph. With all of this brawn you think that handling would be sacrificed, but not so. Mercedes has matched its shear power to an agile body creating a real competitor among its competition.

As with any Mercedes the base price of $63,000 (targeted) is just a starting point that can easily be upped with an optional Sport package among other goodies that will be offered.

Imagine lining your Corvette up at a stop light next to this very large Mercedes Benz S600 reminiscence in size of the Cadillac your grandfather used to own and when the light turns green all you see are its tail lights.

In 2003 Mercedes Benz’s flagship full size sedan packed a twin turbo 12 cylinder power plant with 493 hp and 590 lbs of torque that will thrust this 4610 lb behemoth 0 to 60 in a mind numbing 4.3 seconds. What makes the 2003 Mercedes S600 so impressive is the refinement that Mercedes added to compliment this super car power. They made the S600 capable of smooth relaxing driving or neck straining acceleration.

The 2003 Mercedes S600 is very good at going straight and fast, but on the twisting back roads you will need to slow down a bit. The used car market for the S600 is few and far between since the limited numbers created (considering the original $130,000+ MSRP). If you can find one, they can offer you a way to move 5 full size adults (and their luggage) in luxury, comfort and blazingly fast. With this type of power and luxury come maintenance costs that could put the pleasure of ownership to the test, so purchase wisely.

In 2003 Mercedes Benz added what is considered by many to be a true muscle car for the 21rst century. With a hand built Supercharged V8 packing 469 hp and 516 lbs of torque, it is no wonder that this 4 door sedan is capable of going 0 – 60 in 4.5 seconds. The top speed of this mega sedan is electronically limited to 155 mph.

In the creation of this super sedan Mercedes Benz took great care in maintaining the comfort and luxury, which has and currently defines them, in the E55. Included in this luxury package is an revolutionary adjustable air ride and an smooth 5 speed automatic transmission among other Mercedes specific amenities. With all of these considerations into ride and comfort this monster sedan with cruise effortlessly at its top speed. This was a sedan that is definitely built for the Autobahn.

Mercedes has stopped producing this sedan and replaced it with a faster E63. The used car values of these special Mercedes have held relatively strong. Recently though the 2003 model is coming down to a broader affordability range. Bear in mind that if you plan to purchase a used super sedan that the maintenance costs must definitely be considered.
