2004 C230, a good used car value?
Thinking about trading up the 95 C220 for a 2004 Kompressor. It is a
dealer CPO with 35K on it. Worth it? Not sure what I should offer
the dealer for this particular car,they are asking 23,9, and I dont
think it includes certification. Also, does this year have the maintenance
plan?

Expect to pay 10-15% more.

dealer price
yep, the 23.9 is the asking price without being certified and
not including taxes. they also have an 05 with 27K on it for $25.9
I am prepared to offer them 21K certified + taxes, etc. the internet
car guy says he is going to be aggressive since it is the end of the year,
and will offer up a fair deal to take it or leave it. He is estimating our
car at 5-6K since it has low mileage for being 13yo.

I like my 2004.5. Is it a 2004 or 2004.5? The newer 2004 hsa the 5 spoke wheels, C32 style brakes and some other goodies. I've seen them sell on this forum for about $20K private party, so shoot for that. You may have time left on the free maintenance, it's 4 yrs or 50K miles. Find out if it was used as a loaner. Do a carfax or have them show you the carfax as most dealers already subscribe so it doesn't cost them anything.

I wll ask for the carfax, and of course take my info with me. I will probably
walk away tonight and make him stew a little, since there are a few more
days left in the year :-).you can see the car here:

screw the dealer
hahaha, they didn't want to budge at all. screw them. the trade
value was fine, but they only came down $700 on their car, +
the 1300 for the cpo, + 1925 for an additional 2 years of warranty.
trade value of 5K, and rolling 5600 neg into the price. Payments
were at $600, we walked.
I offered the 22k for their car, certified, and $200 over dealer cost
for the 2 year warranty. Mercedes warranty is a joke. We are probably
going to sit for a while and pay her loan down, then look at BMW.
I hate teh run flat tires, but their free maintenace and 100K certified
program kills MB.
