Good Deal? 2011 C300 4Matic 40k Miles

Hi,

I consider buying 2011 c300 4matic sport at 40k miles from a private party. It is in great condition and has clean carfax report. Do you think that 19.5k is a good deal? How reliable are these cars?

This car is always serviced in mb dealers. The packages are Premium p1 package and heated front seats.

Thanks!

Hell yea that's a good deal. My 2010 was 20.1k at 40K miles.

The only problem is that it does not have the navigation. No technology package.

You're paying 19-20k for a mercedes but nav is not standard.

Thanks a lot for the comments.

I paid 25.1K plus Tax for my 2013 CPO C250, 8.5k Miles on a MB Dealership. Could you push your limit a bit more? I think it's totally worth it to push another 4/5k to get a much newer, lower miles, and warrantied car.

That car was actually priced for 27,999 after a discount. Put the CASH money in the envelopes and let them do the talk

Let the dealer think that "My money is gone" if they didn't accept the deal

Wow, that's was a great price.

Anyway, I cannot lower than 19.5k because the dealers already give 19k to seller for this car.

I have a mustang and never had a MB. That's why, I just wanted to ask your opinions. I guess I'll go for it.

What options and packages it has on the car? A year ago, my buddy got a 2009 C300 with 40k miles fully loaded (Lighting, P1, P2, Multimedia) for 21K USD.

Personally if it's me, I'd try to save up a few more grands to get a much newer and much lightly used C class with a CPO, it's a warranty to keep you out of warranty issues

Oh yeah, keep in mind on basic function like bluetooth music streaming, I love it!!

I ended up putting 10K down on my 2014 with 8,000 miles for $32,000 and lifetime oil changes

32,000 usd with lifetime oil changes? That's a deal for me :P Depending on the options that it has though. Mine only comes with heated seat, keyless-go, and lane assist package. I feel like those all are the must-have crucial options and seems like a good deal for 25,000

2011 c300 sport
mine was: 2011 c300 Sport, 12,500 miles priced at $26,000. It sat for a while and they brought it down to $23,500

I offered $21,000

We settled at $21,500 for it.

See if you can find prices online and compare them. I was willing to drive to get the lowest miles and there was one in Jersey that was lower priced. I showed the salesman on the iPhone and that i was willing to go out of State to get it.

Make an offer 10% lower and see what they say!
