Just traded my 2010 for 2011!!!

I always wanted a white c63, and the numbers I was offered today were too good to pass up. $50k trade value for my black/black 2010 with 13k miles, and $11k off sticker on the new 2011 white/black. Pretty much identically equipped cars, with the exception of my new car adding the back-up camera option.

Now I just gotta transfer my mods.

So only $5k difference between the two cars? Nice deal

Unfortunately not quite that good, Mo. Sticker on the new car was $69,965, so selling price was $58,965. With $50K even for my trade, that's $8,965+tax to make the upgrade. Definitely not a money maker, but still a solid deal no matter how you look at it.

I think I may have set a record by being the only guy on here to successively own a new 2009, 2010, and 2011 C63.

Based on my car buying history, I'd say that would be a good bet.

Spare ECU I still have is useless as far as I know. If anyone feels otherwise and wants to buy it, let me know. Current new ECU will be headed to Andy in the near future.

Dealer will be removing my MBH setup and reinstalling the stock system that I will bring to them this week. I will also have them flash the ECU on the car back to stock, so all should be good.

Thanks Mike. Once the dealer gets them off my old car, I intend to sell them and try out the full MHP S2 package on the new car. Can't wait!!!

With MSRP sticker of $69,965, mine had the following options:

Keyless Go
Back Up Camera
Heated Seats
Multimedia Package
AMG Leather Package

Everything I need, nothin' I don't.

Wow. Congrats on getting the color you've always wanted.

You definitely show your dedication to the model. That's very cool.

isn't this car missing the lighting package? I'm pretty sure that's a separate option for 2011. Dealers didn't realize that and built up quite a few c63's without xenons.

Yep, you're right. I originally assumed it was part of the AMG leather package like in the past, but just realized that's no longer the case. Oh well, I suppose the back up camera is a fair trade.

Are you sure that you don't have lighting package? My car had 68k sticker without keyless and camera. Keyless go was 1100 so it would be 69.1k. Is back up camera more than 800 dollars?

Yes, I'm sure. Back up camera is only around $450, and the heated seats were about the same. So I'm betting your car also lacks the heated seats, which would explain our msrp differences.

Your first upgrade should be to retrofit some xenons onto your car! You've had it on your last 2, it's going to be a noticeable difference for you to go back to normal halogens.
