Looking to buy c63, facelift or used?
So I just sold my 335i and my local MB dealer is doing a fantastic deal on brand new factory order c63 saloons.
I am just weighting up if its worth going for the brand new car rather than a used 2008-2011 car?
I know what the differences are but really looking for peoples opinions on if it's worth the extra cash?
Originally decided on pulling the trigger on the new car but then friends told me to look at older used models as they are to be had right now for very good money. (50% off the list price after 3 years).
Any opinions or advice from people who were in the same situation would also be great.

After having owned both a pre-facelift and now a facelifted i say given that the difference isn't too great, go with the facelift one, already alone because of MCT and the interior.

Thanks for the replies. The deal the local dealer has is 7k British pounds upfront and £500 per month 24 month deal with an option to buy or hand back.
I know most of you guys are in the US but for over here this is a pretty good deal I think.
The thing that sells me the most on the facelift is the color screen in the instrument cluster
I really need to drive a facelift but can't until the dealer gets one in.

X2 on how much money do you have?
If you always had new cars and don't care about always having a payment, then a new one is probablyt your choice.
However, if you look at what you spend, then a new car rarely makes sense and buying a 1 year old vehicle should ALWAYS be a better "Financial" alternative.
However, if you are in the market for an AMG, the financial side is probably being offset by the emotional side.
Let us know which side won and post some pics
