2003 c230k coupe
Feeler/FS: 2003 c230 coupe

Year: 2003
Trim: c230 coupe AT
Color: Brilliant Silver
Mileage: ~55,000 miles
Package: Fully loaded, leather, navi, bose sound system, sun roof
Mods: H&R springs, HID fogs/headlight
Price: $13,500

I'm just posting this up to gauge interest for the car, if people are interested in the car then I will probably sell.

I'm thinking about selling because I'm living on campus and I don't need the car, insurance is just a hassle. I am the first owner (technically second because my brother drove the car before me), and the car has always been garaged.

Pictures could take a week because I'm at school as of now and the car is at home.

Please email me at rsdntevl@gmail.com or PM me if you are interested in the car.

I really doubt you'll get much interest at this price, honestly. The car is worth $10,227 at Edmunds TMV with your mileage and equipment in good condition. KBB is less generous, placing value at $9,725 in GOOD condition.. $10,350 in excellent condition (but this is rare). I used the LA zip code, your mileage, features, and color. These are accurate appraisals.

You're asking a significant amount over what the real value of the car is. I hate to rain on your parade but I'd hate to see someone overpay for any vehicle, especially when the resale value isn't that great to start with.

IMO, split the difference between the different sources and sell @ $10,000. Regardless of what you may feel about this figure, the reality of it is that it isn't worth more.

Matt, is that the "homo" price?

The price is high. The rims would be better off sold separately, if you still have the stock rims. The cut springs will decrease the value somewhat.

Obviously, posting this in the "For Sale" section would probably help, too.

I agree on selling the wheels in the classifieds because that $10,000 price is what your looking at getting with or without those wheels. These cars resale values arent great at all. GLWS though.
