Any tips on this used car?

The brakes make me believe this has the performance package, but then the steering wheel has no alcantara/suede, and the interior looks to be carbon fiber? Looks like the prior owner blacked out the emblems and rear. Any advice on this car? Maybe a former member on this forum? Been on the prowl for a used C63...

Those brakes look more orange to me? Performance package has red callipers I think?

After some research, I've concluded this is PetroC63's old car. Seems like he enjoyed tracking the car... pass. At least it's a legitimate CF interior from the factory. Yes he painted the calipers orange.

What's wrong with tracking the car?

Heavily modded + Tracked car = Stay away
Minor mods/stock + Tracked car = No problem

I don't know much about Petro's car though

I think it is PetroC63's car as well. I don't believe that car has the performance package. It has had a few tunes and I have no idea what is in it at this point. I am sure Petro took good care of the car and if you PM him will be happy to answer any concerns you may have.

Interesting.. I noticed it doesn't have the standard cup holder, but the storage space with sliding cover. I thought that was a euro-only (Canada?) configuration.

+1, but remember, asking price and selling price are not the same.

That's just a straight low ball now but it would be awesome if you pulled it off.

I think a similar 2010 would be around $51k!

lol, I paid 57k for a CPO 2011 P31 with 1900 miles and ALL options. 51k for a 2011 with 4k miles is a bit stretching it.

That is true - but to keep the negotiations respectable and reasonable you need to look at the market - see whats the cheapest similar car is selling for and see how much KBB gives ona trade in on this car and start from an average of two.

Is that a CPO?

Bell Audi has a 2009 C63 w 16K mes for under $45k. It would be interesting to know how much warranty is left.

Considering its an 09, the in service date might have been mid- late 2008 which puts this right at 4 yr mark and this being sold as a non CPO by A non mob dealer, it's factory warranty is set to expire ANYTIME.

I would spend an extra 5 grand and get something newer with more warranty.

Good luck.

2012 CTS-V
That was my car. Don't pay 51K for it.

Yes it was tracked but it was maintained impeccably. 2 or 3 oil changes a year, 2 transmission fluid flushes in 17,000 miles, rear differential fluid changed multiple times.

The center console is the euro version which has a real leather armrest compared to the plastic US version.
