How did the dealer quote it?
2013 Mercedes-Benz S-Class, used · 5th generation
A fair price at 60,000 km is $21,521 to $23,367 (estimated), from 8 similar cars in Canada this month (1 already sold).
Comparable cars are selling for less. A reasonable counter is $22,444, the typical price at this mileage; $23,367 is the most you should pay.
Only 1 2013 S-Class listed near 60,000 km, so this is estimated from the nearest listed mileage (100 to 150k km, 4 cars) using how 5th generation S-Class prices fall with mileage.
Hi, I am interested in the 2013 S-Class listed at $23,995. Comparable ones in Canada with similar mileage have been selling between $21,521 and $23,367 this month, typically around $22,444. Would you do $22,444? I can come in this week.
325 used S-Classs (2011 and newer) in Canada right now. Here are the 20 most recently listed, each checked against the fair range for its own year and mileage.

Before you negotiate
- Anything under $21,521 at this mileage is a good deal. Get the history report before you go.
- Stepping back one year to a 2012 saves about $5,744 for the same generation. Worth a look if mileage is similar.
- 1 of the 8 comparable cars sold in the last 30 days, so this range reflects real transactions, not just asking prices.
Confidence: low (estimated, 4 cars at the nearest mileage). Prices are per vehicle; the same car listed at several rooftops is counted once. Sold cars are kept in because a car that sold at a price is evidence about that price.
