Talking WTB: C230 Kompressor or C32

Hey guys, I know this is not the appropriate spot to place this thread, but I will try anyway. I am looking to purchase a C230 sport or C32 in black with less than 100k miles for under 13k. I am a cash buyer and would like everyone's assistance in finding one. I am located in NC. Thank you for your time! I have a 2002 4.6IS X5 that I may trade if cash is thrown on top.....

There is a huge difference in C230 and C32.. one does not substitute for the other.

It has almost exactly 100k but it meets your requirements otherwise.

I think I may have exactly what you are looking for!

This is actually a link to my post on Craigslist for my 2005 C230 Kompressor Sport Sedan.....

In black......

With the 6 speed!

You can email me at joemangus@gmail.com or by PM on this forum. I can take more pics if you are interested and could send video as well since you are in NC and I am in Cincinnati. Price is a little negotiable, but not by much!

6 speed manual transmission
Black Exterior
Black Leather Interior
Tinted Windows
Continental DWS Tires (brand new) 245/45/17f 255/50/17r
Stock as a rock otherwise!

Brand new set of Continental DWS installed on 12/3/11, aligned at the same time. Less than 600 miles on them.

Good looking out on the sizes! Super typo! They actually are:

225/45/17 front
245/40/17 rear

I know the knob is wrong too, it came that way and can't believe the price for a replacement!

2006 C230, 2006 BMW M3, bye bye C55:(
Get a C350 with a 6speed and call it a day. I dont think you understand what needs to be done to a C32 when you purchase it to have it run for a long time.

Or, get a C55 and call it a day

Or finding one at all! Although Cale bought his 06 350 6MT for under $14k with 68k miles last year.
