Thinking I will be selling my 2012 C63 coupe...I have a few more weeks left at sea and should be home approx. 1st week Nov. (give or take). Anyway, it was purchased new in Tucson AZ, 17 months ago. Iridium Silver, solid spoke wheels, has 4800 miles and is pretty much flawless in every way sans a few very minor lower front valance gravel chips. It has Eurocharged V4 tune and the "my genius" will go with it. Also has nice side window tint (forget the brand but is ceramic something or other...was not cheap) No other mods...it is not a P31 car and does not have limited slip. Sticker price was $69xxx. Trim is wood but currently covered in 3M 1080 CF vinyl. Xenons. Tires have plenty of life remaining. Car has never been "caned", tracked or abused in any way. Still under warranty. Just had it's "A" service a few months ago and the "B" service is pre-paid. Any questions... fire away. I will try to get a copy of the window sticker posted today to show the options on car. Have not determined a starting point for price...have a bit more research to do but will reply politely to any offers

I'm hunting for a coupe in Iridium or Palladium. Prefer P30 and LSD but willing to compromise if the price is right. What color is the interior? Still on the original tires?

PM sent.

This is the only forum I've ever seen where you can sell stuff without an asking price.

Swoody

Did you read the last sentence of my post....
Here let me help you......["Have not determined a starting point for price...have a bit more research to do but will reply politely to any offers" [

Of course I read it and thats exactly where my problem is. Why post if you dont know how much you want yet? Oh thats right, to fish for offers.

Fail.

zcct04

mdgrwl - and you have a problem with that?

This forum is all about finding and sharing information. If I were trying to decide whether to sell or trade and didn't have a good feel for the market, I'd be doing exactly the same thing.

Why the hell do you care if you're not buying??? Got nothing else to do besides talking crap and bumping bsmooth topics?

48-50K

My guess $ 53000

apparently there are no rules to selling on this forum, so my bad, I jumped the gun.

the forums where I come from there is order, and rules... simple stuff like an asking price required. apparently this free for all format works for you guys - carry on.

oh yeah, bsmooth? just calling out the jacka$$es when I see them.

mdgrwl

What do you mean by "caned" ? Do you mean a "can tune", because by your linked thread you did tune the car.

I highly doubt that you (or the potential new buyer) has a warranty now that you have tuned the car. Dealers can see this regardless of what tuners will you.

All fair game things people should be aware of.

Offer? $44K due to lack of warranty.

52-54k i'd say because of option list or lack thereof

More often applied to horses than cars :-) but means whipped with a stick to get it to run faster.

Swoody

Seeing that you know so damned much you should also know that the stock tune can be re-applied in a matter of minutes and is totally undetectable. So warranty applies. Fishing for offers....listen genius, it is really easy to find out what these cars are going for. I have access to the manheim aution site and know that average cond. 12-18k miles are going for 54-55K...This car with 4700miles will get me that at a dealership on trade. I figure that 54-55 is what I can get without having to trade it in. Soooo take your $44k and please stay the F out of my thread.

above average below
Sale Price $60,830 $55,425 $50,020
Odometer 9,890 18,411 26,932

Really the day you drove off the dealership floor with the car in your name if you went around the block and brought it back you would have lost 10K, as far as trade in. The car is now 2 years old with service A being a walk around the car with a coffee and cigarette in hand for 300 bucks. Take the car to the auction and play your cards, be prepared for 48K in hand when leaving unless you put a reserve on it. Not too many people pay MSRP when purchasing, show the actual bill of sale!

mdgrwl

you 100% sure about that Charlie? you think MB doesn't know the C63 is an aftermarket tuning fest? you think they have zero way to see if you hampered with the tune or not?

Who told you that? MB or the tuner selling you the product? lol....

Swoody

Never stated I paid msrp for it. If in fact I were anywhere near my home, I would indeed post up what I paid. As far as being prepared for $48k...I was not refering or alluding that I can go sell my car at auction, merely what the most recent auction prices were (as of Oct 10). Already know I can get $52k against a trade at a dealership without haggling....I am leaning towards private sale and private purchase of next car buy so I can save on sales tax. If I do not sell it within a week or so of returning home....it's off to the dealership.

mdgrwl-

WHY DO YOU CARE!!!! Get off this guys post and let him sell his car. You are just looking for things to bag on and continue to jump on anything you "perceive" to be wrong. You aren't even in the market for this car.

i clicked on his thread just to see his car because i love the C63's and like to look at all of them. i briefly started reading this and became angered by your lack of maturity and decency.

Consider this a bump for a hopeful sale, Swoody. Good luck!!

mdgrwl

If you saw something on eBay for sale that said warranty included and you knew the warranty was possibly in jeopardy, wouldn't you want to say something? THATS WHY I CARE!

Picture a new owner buying it, having a lifted ring and MB saying they are not going to cover it under warranty and he has to pay $18,000 out of pocket to fix it because the car was tuned.

Swoody

Thanks,....this douchebag troll is one of the reasons I was hesitant to post anything on this forum to begin with. I am in no way being deceitful in my posting. It is obvious this self appointed saviour of the masses is adored by many here on this forum. At any rate, I am posting no further in this thread. If anyone is interested please just drop a PM to me. Only one thing to add.....is there anyone here that has empirical, first hand evidence of a warranty being denied due to a eurocharged ecu tune (or a removed one at that)?

Got $49k for mine when I sold it (not traded) to the MB dealership a couple weeks back (got a 2014 911S coming in a month ). I needed tires and an oil change, so I think I fared quite well. Granted I called around and had various offers ranging from $46-49k. My car was a 2011 with 11k miles and mint shape, also fully loaded and stickered at $82k. I would think your car should be in the high $40s to low $50s. GL

I dont have any first hand evidence, but I talked to a MB service rep a while back and he said that even if you reflash back to stock, if there is some catastrophic engine damage or something that would require a lot to fix, they can find that the car had been flashed at one point and refuse to pay for the repairs. I'm not sure if thats true or not but I can't think of why he would make that up.
