Hey guys I've been around for a little now and am new to the Mercedes prices, i've recently bought a 2008 Mercedes Sport C300 It had 49500 miles on it with not much more manufactures warranty , but i did end up getting two extra years/135k miles warranty. Car was priced at $25,495 plus the Extra two years along with the tax and everything ended up being around $31,000 did i get screwed over and if so what should i have done, or do now?

Not sure exactly what options you have but I plugged some basics on Kelly Blue Book KBB.com and the retail price point with that mileage for a non CPO car is almost exactly what you paid...

Not sure how much shopping around you did, but I paid less for my CPO C350 with 26k miles on it a year ago..

You didn't give us a lot of options that you got, but I went to Edmunds.com and plugged in your information and put 50011 for a zip code since you said you live in Iowa. I also guessed on some of the options. The site gave a Dealer Retail Price of $20,100, not including any extra warranty. I don't know what the KBB will give but you can look it up.
Please bear in mind that you may have options that will add to the value of the car which I did not add.

I don't know if there is anything you can do about it now, since you already bought the car. The good news is you will love the car. It is awesome and it is yours

i didn't really do much hence i was looking for a MB but there's only one dealer for MB and BMW Within 100 miles of me so i was kind of low on choices!

It seems like you couldn't have done much. The dealer has the upper hand for being the only one in the area. I say just move on and enjoy your car because it's just a sunk cost now. Use your energy/thought on something more important.

You're right, thanks for your input. I am Looking to mod it a little though, it's black interior and exterior, Am not sure if i would like the whole blackout look on a c300 but so far i have tinted windows and 8000k headlights and fogs, looking to switch to 6000k, not liking the too blue look. Anyone have any suggestions as to what i should do for rims? chrome or black? black out tail lights or keep OEM, ANY SUGGESTIONS WOULD HELP!

Thanks man i appreciate all of that! I had a Cadillac Before hand decided to upgrade to a c300! So Far love it! besides some squeaking near the pulleys when it's cold out, have taken it to the dealer three times now and still sqeaking! Hopefully the fourth time is the charm this friday! But thanks again!
