Help a W211 driver choose a new/used W205

Hi everyone! I'm a long-time Mercedes owner and presently own a 2006 E350 sport and a 2007 E350 Saks Key to the Cure Edition, both of which I am selling and buying a W205.

Here's what I'm thinking about and would like whatever input or advice you could give:

Must have:
Apple CarPlay

99% sure of the following:
2019 C300 sedan
Black
P01 Premium Package
321 AMG Line
19" wheels

I'd probably also like the following:
10.25 center display
Pano roof
Burmeister stereo
19" AMG twin 5-spoke wheels w/ black accents

Any input or advice regarding must-have or don't-get options or year-models?
What's a good source for finding out invoice pricing so I know where to be price-wise on a new or CPO car?
Any other input or advice you guys could share would be tremendously appreciated.

I look forward to being a member of the W205 forum!

Hi, if I was in your i would go for a 2017 C43 pure AMG or 2016 C450 instead of 2019 C300.

Maintenance on AMGs are too much for me and those don't have Apple CarPlay which is very useful to me. Also... warranty. I'm looking for less than 10,000 miles.

I’d add the night package to the list.
