The S350 costs $177k. If he paid $223k he got ripped off badly.

The S350 *starts* at $177k. Most luxury car buyers don't buy the base
spec...

There's only one spec and it comes fully loaded. Why you'd want to add
anything extra to it is beyond me.

With a car that expensive you'd expect at least $10k knocked off the price
right away - so you'd start out at about $165k. On road costs amount to
about $12k in addition to that.
