I bought a certified pre-owned 2005 S430 from someone returning it from a 3 year lease and it is still the nicest car I have ever owned. The last 4 cars I've owned were all new ... Lincoln LS, 2 Avalons, and an Infinity FX35, and this 3 year old car blows them all away. My father-in-law would allways insist on travelling in his Town Car until he rode in the 'Cedes. Now we take my car everywhere and instead of insisting on riding up front for leg room, he insists on riding in the back seat. I sneak it up to 80 or 90, and they never know.
Pros:
Rides like a dream. Incredible milage range. I can drive from New Orleans to San Antonio without stopping for gas.
Cons:
Slightly underpowered for me, but I like to be pinned back in my seat when I'm entering interstate traffic. Burns premium gas.
