I'm not sure $12.5k is a good price at all.

A quick search on autotrader.com shows a ton of cars priced at $13,995 and below, some with less than 100,000 miles.

I even find a few high mileage cars advertised for less than $10K.

Plus, buying a car with a check engine light when you don't know what's wrong is simply lunacy.

This chassis has no hidden problems, like engine wiring harness problems, bad head gaskets, or leaking a/c evaporators.

Same M119 engine as W140 S500.
