I can't believe you haven't installed your headers yet. Install them and your inquisition to selling your cbs will be gone.
If I do that I won't be able to get my dream house
So I need to stick to my plan for now.

lol! Good luck as these are hot cakes right now! Unless you want to pay a $130k+ premium for it you won't get one. That is just crazyness for a mustang. I also thought about that car but then realized the hype will slow down and prices will settle in a couple years. The R will still require a premium but not as high as it is now.

Smart thinking! Get the dream house, then the dream car collection. In that case, install the headerd on the car this weekend. This upgrade discussion will be over asap!

I am not crazy enough to pay any of the premiums that they demand at the ford stealerships. I will be financially prudent and wait. I will get the gt350r and they will sell it to me with no markup. That's what I keep telling myself. Lol. I found one asking a 10k markup, but it has been sold. Another asking 40k, obviously it's still sitting on the showroom.

Have you considered buying in canada?
There was one R available at a dealership here in markham, ontario for a bit of a markup. But im sure even with the price gouging it will still be a steal for you guys in the us.
Craig riley ford had one R and a handful of reg 350's available.

No one's interested in a clean Black Series?

I'm sure people are interested. Hell, I sure am. But I can't even come close to making an offer to you that isn't insulting.

Depending on what you owe and what not, I'd try selling it to a high end dealer if you just want to get out of it and move on to what you've got your eye on.

I secretly hope it doesn't sell so you stick around and just grace us with your presence. Or at least long enough so that I can scoop it up once I win the lottery.

Any bites on MBworld at all that were appealing?

This is not the way to sell a semi-exotic car. Most ppl here already own a C63 and you will get a low hit rate. Leave a FS thread alive so its around for those that are interested and highly motivated to seek out the car and then sell it through an exotic dealership. It will also take time to get the right buyer and price since the market is generally small for people that can afford these machines

Well a bunch of low ballers which was expected. I had one cash offer that was $10k short of being acceptable. Still patient.

Well if you talk about consignment I'm not interested in that. Also I contacted a few. Some never replied back. Others gave me a laughable appraisal.
So if you can recommend a good one I'll take it.

Crazy that no one has scooped it up yet. Have u listed it in a few different places? Craigslist, eBay etc? Someone will be very lucky to get your car. Guess you will have to be quite patient. Good luck!

That's a good place to be. A guy (ultimately the new owner) lowballed the crap out of me on my 996. I had to reiterate "I don't HAVE to sell this". He finally met my price.

OP as mentioned already, don't sell the BS lol!! I agree that this beast will definitely increase in value since it is sooo rare and not a large amount were produced.

I'd snap that up in a heartbeat. I think the Porsche is the best car i have ever driven, but that BS is very special.

I've been tossing around the idea of taking mine to some dealers to see what they will offer so i can stash some cash away for a different toy....but knowing they will totally lowball me doesnt really make me want to bother hah.

good luck with the sale, but as said above hate to lose you from the community

Well AMG and "increase in value" doesn't really go together. Even Black Series and particularly nowadays with all that brand dilution. The SLS BS being the only exception for modern AMGs.

Hmm, idk. I think the C63 BS still has a bit of depreciation left, but after that, it'll stagnate, and start to slowly go back up. I've been watching this trend with the CLK63BS for about a year now.

What I'm saying is these cars will never sell at or above MSRP again.
CLK BS seems to trending up but at a very slow pace.

The last of the NA AMG engines in a BLACK SERIES... I think time is going to prove you wrong here. Regardless, it sounds like you're pretty firm on getting rid of it and getting into a P car. Have you taken it anywhere yet and received a quote? I interested in hearing what the offers are...
