My 2003 C32 AMG
First at 16 I started with a 05 C240 4matic and the (W203) was my "perfect car." Then when the 16 year old me found the C32 AMG, I had to get one. Years later after an unfortunate winter accident and a new car needed, the search was on. After one month of searching a honest gold mine was found and a dream was insight. A 2003 Magma Red Mercedes-Benz C32 AMG was found and claimed.
Now 19, I'm proud to say I've owned this bad larry since January 29th 2016.
Miles: Currently 131k
Mods: -Code 3 Pulley
-Code 3 Intake
-Eurocharged Heat Exchanger
-Needswings Coolant Isolation
-Johnson CM30 Intercooler Pump
The car was wholesaled to me because apparently the dealership was having trouble selling it. (I payed less for the C32 then the C240. )

Nice find! Curious what you paid for it? My C32 has about the same miles and wondering what the market will bear for price.
Hopefully you don't have a list of issues like seat heaters, suspension bushings, motor mounts, etc. to work through at this mileage. Most C32's do, so don't worry too much. Just cruise the forums and ask for advice.
Last, I'm not your dad, but I remember when I was 19, and this is a lot of car for a 19 year old. Invest in track days, go karts, dirt bikes or other means, and learn how to control cars. Don't learn on the street. We want to see you 40 years from now driving that car.

Congratulations on your C32. Mine is one of my all time favorite cars. It now has 22600 miles on it and is a joy to drive.
