wow... what a rare find. especially because it has bixenons and its a c320... and that color was only made in 2005.
there are only a hand full of c320 coups, but this is the first one i've seen with all those options in that color. too bad its automatic, but if it were manual transmission i'd have second thoughts of upgrading my coupe

1999 CLK320 (sold), 2007 C230 SS (gone), 2000 Grand Marquis, 2011 CR-Z, stay tuned...
I didn't mean in place of my car... having it as a double might be nice though!
EDIT: Less mileage than my '07 as well.

I like the 135... Not to hijack this thread or anything, but I just started working on an '89ish Chevy S10 (which I have no time for as it is). I don't need another car.
The coupe's looks have grown on me, though, and this is a nice one!

IMO, $21k is stupid expensive for a 2005 non-AMG C-class, regardless of engine or options. A few months ago, there was a red 2005 C55 at an Atlanta Honda dealer for $25.5k with 47k miles on the clock. In May, a relative of mine bought a 2007 C230SS with Bi-X and CPO'd for $21k OTD. I will admit this coupe posted here is rare, but that doesn't justify that price - not in the current market.

I think they're talking about the rarity that is a 2005 C320 Coupe with OEM Bi-Xenons. I see lots of C-coupes too.

The low mileage is a double-edged sword, too. Cars are purpose-built for one reason - to be driven. I understand some cars are collectables, but an 05 C-coupe isn't one of them. Not being driven can cause problems, too. My car has 57,000 miles now (that's 32,000 in the year and a week I've owned it) and is very healthy. Can't imagine why anyone wouldn't drive them.

I have had a few problems with mine because of sitting up... 8,000 miles in 2 years is way to little!

I've added 12,000 in 4 months... My grandpa owned the car from new, and didn't drive it much at all!

i actually wasn't a fan of my coupe (previously my sisters until she upgraded to a wagon)... but after seeing what it can potential turn into thanks to some coupe members on this forum, i decided it was worth keeping. its pretty fugly bone stock and pre-facelift
