Shipping a car from/to Hawaii starts at around $900, so if you can get the car at a good deal and you live near California it wouldn’t be too bad. It just takes a while to get to the US.

That’s not worth buying. Pre facelift W220s are complete clusterfucks of cars. They’re the reason the W220 has a terrible reputation.

I am not sure what the clusterfuck consists of. I don’t want to pay to find out tho. Do you know?

Probably one of the best early cars left, but you’re playing Russian roulette with one of those. Keep a nice savings account for when things go wrong, they will. A first year 220 is one of the most “beta test” cars made.

So Oppo is saying, it’s not the seller’s choice, not because Hawaii, that it only has 29K?? Lol
Hmm...shame cuz it is in great shape. Hadn’t known this about W220s

Yes. It was just very cheaply designed. Abhorrent electrical systems, COMMAND I is one of the worst infotainment systems I’ve ever had the misfortune of using, and Gen 1 airmatic/ABC is legendarily unreliable. I daily drive a 2004 S600 and encourage you to look for a post facelift S500 with airmatic. They’re great cars when properly maintained but if I could tell you one thing, it’d buy the best one you can afford and to avoid ABC at all costs.
