My C63 needs a husband

I went to see a CLK BS today. The dealer is asking for $81,000 plus tax. I offered him $78,000 plus tax. The car has 6 months left of warranty. Should I really have someone to do a PPI although he showed me the carfax? Is $78,000 too much for that car?

Go for it Dave!!! Ask them for maintenance records, if everything looks legit I would do it.
Cant go wrong with a CLK BS.
Is there any other cars that you had in mind?

great car for sure, but what about a c63 BS coupe that will be coming out shorttly? wouldn't you rather wait and get a brand new car?

Now ok I don't know what the price is going to be

That is the right car. I had a M6 and it was a crap. I posted a thread in CLK BS forum and they don't like this car because its roll cage. Please let me know what you think. Thanks. https://mbworld.org/forums/showthread.php?t=405353

That's the first thing that bothered me... the roll cage. It means this car was used for track a lot.

That is why no MB dealer would touch it

They can't sell a tracked car and warranty it too much work. be careful.

Its warranty ends in 6 months. Can I buy additional extended warranty on a used car?

Believe this is the same car. Check out the you tube video as well.

I guess technically the car was "tracked".

A CLK63BS is still the ultimate in my book. If it's at a MBZ dealer and they will CPO the car then you can buy the MBZ extended warranty. It's not bumper to bumper but it covers the big buck items. Otherwise you can buy after market warranty (from the dealer) that are very much like an insurance policy.

What are you talking about? I have a CLK63 BS and it's under full factory warranty for 7 years 100K miles, even though I take it to the track. Mercedes actually encourages you to take it to the track, because that's what they built the car for in the first place. Otherwise I wouldn't have bought the car. Porsche on the other hand voids your warranty when you track it.

No...this car would NOT qualify for CPO with racing mods. I'm sure it got alot more racinf mods then just the roll cage. Extended warranty will run you around $6-$7K extra.

Porsche will void you warranty if you even drive the car.

Yes that is true they won't CPO a modded car. Too bad. I got an extended warranty for about $1k a year on a 996TT. Used it once for an ignition key that went bad. I had the MBZ extended warranty on my C55 and it saved my ***. Got a new tranny, driveshaft and differential out of it.

I have a bad feeling about it. They probably ran that car to bone dry before they auctioned it! What other car I should get under $90,000??? Please no GT-R.

Wait for the right CLK63BS. One will come along. Very good condition 997TT are below $90K and 996TT are below $60k.
