Market analysis
Why does the Mercedes E Class strut cost more?
A used Mercedes E Class strut carries a median asking price of $235, which is 135% higher than the Toyota Camry at $100. Supply also plays a role: Mercedes E Class has 3,659 priced listings versus 1,925 for Toyota Camry, and more listings generally mean more choices and more competitive pricing.
The Mercedes E Class average ($356) runs 51% above its median ($235), indicating a tail of high-priced listings — likely low-mileage or remanufactured units pulling the average up.
Only 57% of Toyota Camry strut listings include a posted price (1,925 of 3,362 observed) — the rest are "call for price," which usually signals negotiable or higher-than-average pricing.
At Grade A (excellent) condition, the Toyota Camry is 58% cheaper ($100 vs $238) — the gap widens compared to the overall median difference.
Buyer's checklist
What to check before buying a used strut
- Check the shaft for pitting or rust — a pitted shaft will chew through the new seal and start leaking immediately.
- Look for oil weeping around the seal area. A light film is normal on older units; dripping means it's spent.
- Confirm whether the strut mount and spring are included, or if you'll need to transfer yours over.
- Match the part to your vehicle's suspension type (standard, sport, electronic/adaptive) — they're not interchangeable.
