New honda pilot vs used Mercedes GL450?

I'm trying to decide between
1) New 2015 honda pilot touring
2) Used 2012 mercedes GL450

Both cars cost around 40k and both are 3 row SUVs

Right now I'm split 50/50 on which I should get.
If anyone is familiar with both cars which one would you get?

I like honda pilot since it new and has alot of features my friend just got one 2015 and its amazing. AC is amazing and alot of features. Not clean in buttons tough as though a 2012 mercedes GL450 is clean in buttons and a true luxury car. I currently own a bmw and used to have mercedes. At the moment I like the honda pilot better.

Mercedes GL450

Gl for sure, although I have no experience with the Honda. I have nothing but great experiences with the Gl, my father had one and also a mate I have. They are amazing to drive, sporty look, and the extras are amazing, tail gate, airbag suspension is awesome on them also. Trust me it's what you get for a luxury car and still great 4x4 if you are using them for that. They aren't too upper class to look off road they are awesome off road. But look it's totally up to you, you gotta drive it, but we have never had any problems or complaints, and the service mercedes provide is amazing. You won't fault the car or them, and if you do you won't have any trouble solving it. Good luck with your decision, however I strongly recommend the mercedes. Hope I helped and didn't hair blabber.

  • What is pilot sales? I have heard that Honda did pilot sales of HR-V in the US I do not live in the US? So I do not know what does it mean. I'm taking about the following article: http://www.fool.com/investing/general/2015/08/10/2016-pilot-could-place-honda-among-the-chart-toppe.aspx
  • My brand new honda pilot ex 2019? So i got the pilot ex 2019, only 600 miles on in, but i noticed my car vibrates on idle, while waitin for the stoplight to turn green or having it on while on Parking, my car sometimes vibrates… You think this is normal for the new cars nowadays? I went to my dealership, they found no codes, Maybe a mis fire or bad engine mount? They maybe forgot to tighten something up?
  • Why should someone living in section 8 drive a brand new Mercedes Benz SUV? Some people do not qualify for government assistance and drive a 2009 Honda civic and work 2 jobs. The one driving the Benz said she has no insurance and now she wants the city to buy her a new car since her vehicle got damaged by flood. Why should taxpayers pay for her and also for her to buy a new luxury suv?
