2006 Mercedes-benz R350 - Panoramic Sunroof, Black-on-black, Harman/kardon Clean on 2040-cars

The 2007 Mercedes-Benz R-Class combines the comforts of a luxury sedan with most of the space and versatility of a minivan or an SUV. While not as tall as the last two, it boasts more height than a sedan for excellent headroom. Legroom is also first class, and there is true space for six full-size adults in three two-seat rows. If the R350 is closest in concept to a tall luxury wagon, it doesn't fit the profile of a wagon or any other existing automotive genre.

So what is the R-Class? Mercedes-Benz calls it a Grand Sports Tourer. If that sounds more than vaguely like Chrysler's Pacifica Sports Tourer, the two vehicles share no parts, and the R-Class is, well, more grand in design, social standing, specification, and price.

In the United States, two models of the 2006 Mercedes-Benz R-Class are available: the R350, powered by a 3.5-liter, 268-horsepower V-6, and the R500, with a 5.0-liter, 302-horsepower V-8. Both have permanent all-wheel drive, the 7G-Tronic seven-speed automatic transmission, and the full array of Mercedes-Benz safety features. Interior tech features are led by an eight-speaker AM/FM /single-CD audio system with both MP3-CD capability and an input jack for an auxiliary audio player as standard. Options include the TeleAid telematics system, a GPS navigation system, a glove-box-mounted CD changer, Sirius Satellite Radio, and the Mercedes-Benz telephone system.

Our 2006 Mercedes-Benz R350 test vehicle came with most of the key comfort options but few of the available entertainment packages. To the $48,000 base price and the $775 destination charge, add $690 for Obsidian Black paint; $900 for 10-spoke 18-inch wheels; $530 for the wood-and-leather multifunction steering wheel; $1,750 for the leather and burled-wood interior-trim upgrade; $50 for a rear cargo cover; $1,190 for heated front- and second-row seats; and $1,400 for the Airmatic air-suspension system. The $2,390 Panorama Roof package could be considered comfort or entertainment, while the $1,190 Harman Kardon Logic 7 audio system provides great sound. The $58,865 bottom line is not cheap for a Mercedes but will be hard to beat on a square-feet-per-dollar basis. Even the S-Class seems small inside in comparison.

The 2006 Mercedes-Benz R350's sleek and different looks draw attention. "What is it?" is the most common onlooker comment. While the car's Mercedes-Benz heritage is obviously defined by the tristar, the low Mercedes sport grille, and lines that show similarity to several of the manufacturer's other current products, defining exactly what it is can be tricky. The R350's two-box shape is only superficially like a minivan's, proving lower and smaller on closer inspection, as well as lacking sliding doors. It is larger, with a more blended-in shape than that of an E-Class wagon, and it's definitely not an SUV.

Our advice is not to try to categorize the R350. If you need space in a luxury vehicle, look here. All three seating rows are simultaneously usable by six-foot-tall adults. The power-adjustable first row is similar in design and dimension to that of the ML SUV--no complaints for space and comfort there--but the second-row seats are the best in the house. Although manually adjustable, they can be modified for fore-and-aft position and seat-back angle, and they give the chauffeured passenger the feeling of traveling in an executive jet.

Shipping:

You are more than welcome to pick the car up yourself or arrange your own shipping, but if you don’t know anything about it and need help I will be glad to arrange the shipping.

Shipping in the continental US is about $700.00- $850.00 from coast to coast, similar prices from Florida to N.Y. If you are somewhere in between use common sense and figure it out, or email me and I can give you quote by the next day. Shipping would be paid COD.

The shipping to Europe from Florida would cost about$ 800.00 (Ro-Ro)

Enclosed Container to Rotterdam, Antwerp or Bremenhaven $1100.00. Spain, Portugal, France, Italy, Scandinavian states and England are about $1400.00. Container is prepaid. Ro-Ro is paid when you get the car.

The shipping to Middle East, Australia, Japan and Africa is about $1500.00 (RO-RO)

All shipping is paid once you get the car. So no cost out of pocket at all until you take delivery of the car. I don’t have container info yet, but if interested let me know.

I would take care of all the necessary paperwork and bring the vehicle to the Jacksonville port to be shipped.
