C230 sport coupe
how much is 2002 C-coupe worth now if I sell?

I am not driving my C-class coupe anymore
its park for 2 months now
its fully operational except for the "Service B" is due.
no point doing the service if I don't drive it, right?

I am thinking about selling it privately, what is a good reasonable selling price
can you guys suggest?

It all depends on how many kms are on the car. I'm in Vancouver and my coworker just bought a 2004 from the dealer with only 60K kms for $12K, so expect much less privately for a 2002. My 2003 has 190K kms on it and might get $8K privately, trade value is $5.6K

If Service B is due, and you don't do it, prospective buyers will wonder what other maintenance wasn't done. I'd get it done if I were you; otherwise, you'll start off on a bad foot with every single person who looks at it.

8k is pretty high as well.

In Toronto, 2002 coupes with 160-170k kms sell for $4000-6000 depending on the condition/options. For $8k here, you can get a 2004 with 60k miles.

I moved from Ontario and noticed cars sell for a little bit more on the west coast. It might be the lack of rust, or that these cars are certainly more popular here.

There's 7 2002 C230 coupes in the GVA with ~100K kms for $10-11K. Personally I think that is a bit high.

You'd get a lot of interest for the xenons and fog housings, so that would be a very smart move on your part.

C230 sport coupe
the passenger side xenon has a broken tab
It was like this when I bought it,
I use a bolt to hold it down.
still works, might part out if someone really want it.
but I rather sell the car as is with all the MODs

With those mods you won't get much return, better to part them out. Not many enthusiasts buy these cars, so all those little details like clear blinkers, fogs, updated bumper/grill ... will go unnoticed or unappreciated.

I'd say throw it up for $10-11K like the others on autotrader.ca and craigslist and hope for the best.

goodluck with the sale!

parting out is a real pain, but with the 2005 face-lift, you should have an easier time selling it b/c you'll have leverage over most other coupes out there.
