The Best and Most Depreciated Mercedes to Buy in 2025

[@Aeniva]

The first gen CLS are an absolute gem! I’m on my third one now, and have owned the newer one as well but the first gen is by far the most beautiful and elegant looking.

[@redasthecolor]

@@Aeniva yes! That’s what I’m talking about. 3rd one huh?

[@NudaMan]

This gives me confidence now lol 3 CLS’s?!?! That’s awesome

[@gian_zapattini]

I currently own this c219 cls 350 and im in love with the look

[@redasthecolor]

Isn’t the design of it timeless? Love hearing that you’re enjoying yours!

[@gian_zapattini]

@@redasthecolor yes it is! I just upgrade the radio and got a rear camera and thats it! In 2024 the car its still good looking on the streets

[@redasthecolor]

@@gian_zapattini love it! Yeah the upgraded radio definitely makes it a little better

[@ad.k.2185]

The first CLS is a design masterpiece. Timeless car. ❤

[@redasthecolor]

@@ad.k.2185 couldn’t agree more with you!

[@mikeschumacher9715]

Hey glad to see you here! We always called 4 door cars sedans.

[@redasthecolor]

I am back on KZbin :). Yeah technically it is a sedan but Mercedes called a grand touring coupe

[@jewviking]

​@@redasthecolor hi it looks VERY good and cheap. many kind of model are. old c and e models not durable maybe only olds. production date matters, and engine size in few countries year tax much cheaper. one russian made a bunch of good quality video about his CLS55 AMG and his travels. durable?

[@redasthecolor]

@@jewviking yeah that make sense! The 55 version as far as I know is pretty durable in comparison to modern AMGs

[@marcuscbailey]

I see this comment on almost every cls video. The responses are always about aesthetics or that Mercedes “called it a coupe”, but I never see anyone reply that sedans have 4 doors but those doors also have pillars. These doors don’t have pillars, which is why they’re able to get away with calling it a 4 door coupe. The only cars with pillarless doors outside of this class are coupes and convertibles.

[@redasthecolor]

@@marcuscbailey could not agree more with you on this!

[@realestatejunkie00]

Oh my oh my! At last, you came back with a great great video. Can you like make a video of how you take deals like that? It's good that people know how to get these kinds of deals or you have a course for it? I want to get a car I would like in a way just like you did but don't know how. Mhmm

[@redasthecolor]

Thank you! Yeah that’s a good idea. Have you seen my video on how to get a great car deal ?

[@privatemarijan]

Your car is just awesome. Please keep it and never sell if possible. It's so unique with the mileage and the options you have, I'm a bit jealous, honestly, even I own a C218 2018 CLS 63 S 4-Matic in Diamond White, with Ceramic Brakes, Bang and Olufsen, Carbon Interior and Outside, I'd still considering getting a C219 just because of your presentation and the beautiful cinematic film you did with your perfect example. Also, a few things to share about the car options/equipment: - There is the Standard Soundsystem, then Harman/Kardon, and the AMG High-End Surround-System found in not many cars. There was even an fourth option being the Bang and Olufsen BeoSound for the facelifted version (yes, the C219) but it was quickly discontinued within several days being in the configuration and apparently someone even bought it, and the part number exists for the speakers, covers etc. - You could order a Performance package from factory having 525 HP instead the original 514 HP, and 650nm instead the original 630nm. As standard you would get the darker-silver color for the body, the carbon exterior package as standard and some exclusive lightweight 18 inch rims. It was sold only to a few customers end of the production life for C219. - There are some hidden features in the NTG such as Curvetronic where it will display upcoming road curves on your navigation system such as in a video game. If not present in your NTG, you can unlock it with MB-Star Diagnostics (Vediamo/Monaco). - For a specific year and month for the C219, all units received Acoustic Glass by mistake. It was a mistake in production, and never intended for the car.

[@redasthecolor]

oh wow! Thank you for such a detailed response. Yeah I love the 1st gen CLS.

[@dicopilico]

Remarkable review! 🥇

[@redasthecolor]

thank you sir!

[@fgeiger41]

I love those but I think the 90s Pontiac Grand Prix kicked off the modern sedan coupe. The ProtoSport4 was their wishful thinking concept. Awesome deal on test one. Love the color!

[@redasthecolor]

Yeah I remember Grand Prix cars. But ultimately it was the Rover P5 to be the first 4 door coupe as the history says. Thank you for checking it out

[@akhmadgafuri-1256]

awesome car with incredibe price!

[@redasthecolor]

it is a great car! Thank you

[@Jun55k]

I freaking love the w219. I’ve owned a cls55 for awhile now, and it’s a fucking tank. My bloated tick has proven to be quite reliable. It turns heads, the engine sounds awesome, very comfortable, the suspension is useful, in my town full of potholes, and it’ll kill a brand new scat pack. It’s quite a superb bañana. And was available in the US.

[@redasthecolor]

@@Jun55k yes! So good right?! Super happy you’re satisfied with yours

[@Rocco6161]

M113 💪🏽

[@redasthecolor]

@@Rocco6161 yes 🙌

[@JechtBigK]

4 years now with a 350 cgi, indium gray, sincerely i was on that time going mad behind a 55 amg or a 63 amg, but when i found my unit, i buyed instantly for 15k € in spain... its not an amg, but guy...those 300 hp are alive its faster than i though considering the size of the car, however a friend of my cousin offers me to do a stage 1 ecu remap, and the car now has 319 hp and a less consumption, and the car goes like a train....around 400 € the remap, it had 105k km ( 65k miles) when i buyed, now has 123k km ( 76k miles), i had to solve the principal problem of this cars, wich is the mechatronic board of the 7g trans.. 1.6k € the cost of the unit, plus the atf, bolts, filter and gasket... other than that, the engine is rock solid reliable, love it.

[@redasthecolor]

@@JechtBigK awesome! Yes I agree the engine is bullet proof and very potent

[@davidx6291]

bmw 730d 2008 is the most depreciated from almost 200k to 3-6k

[@redasthecolor]

@@davidx6291 oh dang good thing we don’t have them here in North America lol

[@DB-un2yg]

Lol the e60 came out in 2004 why didn’t you show that? Nonetheless great looking car except the front lights compared to the e60

[@redasthecolor]

E60 is ok looking but I still don’t like it lol. I got used to it but never found it striking:). IMO F10 is the best looking 5 series

[@bobbyz23]

Everything is nice except the front headlights, never have liked those style on a Mercedes.

[@redasthecolor]

@@bobbyz23 really? Interesting. Thank you for watching!

[@highorbit3282]

I cant believe you mentioned that, i agree completely. The headlights are just blah and nothing special compared to the rest of the car. I wish they were different but i cant say how. Enjoy yours

[@redasthecolor]

@@highorbit3282 thank you!

[@Volcanu5]

lol the same cars cost here in Turkey up to 35k high mileage... if u want a decent low mileage model around 45-50k USD dollars 4.800 is a joke :) I would probably buy also 2-3 cars. I tell u what this car is going to be like BMW 5 2005 or Audi RS6 that car looks so unique it's totaly worth of getting cls!

[@redasthecolor]

What?! Noooo…how is that possible?

[@1maico1]

£2300 GBP buys you an early CLS W219 in the UK. I prefer the shooting brake version which tend to go for more.

[@alge2402]

in germany 3.5l costs 8k-10k. And everyone stares at you on the road 😄 i ask myself why people buy 5 years old 1.6l VW for 25k, if they can buy cls. Stupid mentality. But I benefit from this 😋

[@redasthecolor]

@@alge2402 haha yeah people have no clue lol. Good for you!

[@BrianGallagher-tr5ty]

I have a 2007 320 cdi im from Ireland paid 3k for it put 3k into it 130k miles on the clock silver with black im never selling it i love drives like a s class

[@redasthecolor]

@@BrianGallagher-tr5ty yes! I love it. Looks like you got a nice one

[@ianmills5237]

​@@redasthecolor Just about to but a 320 cdi for 2.5k. 119k miles and absolutely mint. Obsidian black. Rear tints and brand new hi spec android in car entertainment.
